    New Warped Tobacco: Midsommar

    Well it's up on SPC for $12.20. Love the tin art, they usually do a good job for Warped however I'm struggling to find the hook for this blend. I love oriental heavy baccy but there's not exactly a shortage of it available for regular sale. Think I'll save my "limited edition" tobacco funds and...

    From Man's First Moonwalk to Today...

    I can respect people not wanting to live underneath constant sonic booms but damn, what a cool plane. To be fair to NASA there's a good reason for this, or at least one that makes sense. One of the big hurdles these days for NASA is everyone wants them to do everything all at once for as little...

    FDA new proposal for tobacco product manufacturers

    Right on the money. For the government weed promises to be the tax behemoth tobacco used to be before everyone stopped smoking. They're hoping for another good 50+ years before the studies come out debunking the idea that burning and inhaling one plant is just as dangerous as another.

    Jim's C&D Sun Bear Tupelo Review.

    I pooh-poohed Sun Bear two years in a row. Last years Secret Santa showed me the error of my ways big time and I'm locked and loaded to grab at least six tins. Thanks for the review Jim, excited for this one.

    Favorite Youtube Channel?

    Bremen Pipe Smoker is the only one I really watch much of anymore. He can drone on but it's usually about history or specifically tobacco rather than general musings on life I frankly couldn't care less about. When I do feel like that kind of video I'll dig up an old Matches860 I haven't seen...

    Jim's C&D The Beast 2023 Review.

    I haven't tried previous releases but how does The Beast compare to C&D's other Perique-bomb: Exclusive? Does the addition of the rum soak and hint of DFK manage to set it apart from the perique?

    Wind Cap

    I've tried both. The one on the right isn't as durable as the left, one of the prongs tends to bend in and can lead to it falling off the pipe. It's a shame because it looks nicer.

    How Are Your Cellared Aromatics Holding Up?

    I've got an almost two year old 8oz Ball jar of Devil's Holiday that I, much to my shame, pop open and just take a big whiff of every once in a while. When I smoke it rather than just huffing it it's just as good as it's always been.

    Folklore

    I wouldn't be surprised if Folklore was C&D's version of a restaurant "Sunday Special!" gumbo. Just throw a bunch of stuff into a brick and make it a decently smokeable blend. That said, I really enjoy it and I wouldn't mind if they made it a regular production at $4.11 an ounce.

    Swiss Army Knife's Jar Labels

    Not yet, I primarily do blends I've gotten myself and I'm sick of staring at a sharpies silver jar lid. I switched to Mylar last year so I've slowed down on making labels in general. HU is on my radar though I can't say it'll be any time soon. You don't like the bird art?! It didn't capture me...

    Anyone Play Video Games?

    They're really cool. I got one back in like 2018 and there's a few games I'll still dig it out to play with, Beatsaber, Warthunder and other plane games are big ones. I tried to play Skyrim on it and nearly threw up from the motion sickness. I know they came out with a newer version that...

    Vauen Tiny Pipes- Are they any good?

    They're great if you really want a small pipe with a 9mm filter option. If you're fine without the filter though you can find cheaper, lighter and, in my opinion, more attractive small pipes. French pipes like Ropp or Chacom are the first that come to mind. Savinelli's Minuto series. Those...

    So You Can't Find a Place to Smoke?

    This is classic Mexico. It's a bullshit law they can use to fine or pressure tourists or rich people for bribes.

    Recent TAD Pick-Ups

    After seeing @JimInks review of Maple Plum Spice I decided to stop sleeping on Wilke and put in an order for several blends to try. I'm praying to the tobacco gods above there aren't any more tempting releases in the near future or I'm going to end up like @AJL67!

    Tea

    I have at least one cup of Earl Grey every day. It's usually Bigelows but I prefer Harney & Sons Early Grey Supreme when I can find it.

    What’s a Good 9mm Pipe- Vauen, Barling or Rattray?

    Not really. Vauen makes really nice pipes at the lower end. I have an Olaf 1811 I paid about $70 for and it has a nicer finish than some of my $170 deluxe pipes. Rattray's are also good and I'd say fairly equivalent to Vauen.

    Do You Know When the IPSD Deals Will Start?

    Haven't heard a peep from them since the CRF release back in September. Also can't find anything on other forum's "current happenings" threads either. Keep an eye on your email but if you're down to the wire they've used IPSDsale and feb*year* so feb2023 before. Obviously no guarantees but it...

    Do You Know When the IPSD Deals Will Start?

    Hey is this the show off your loot thread or what? Finally picked up a Vauen Eron I've been wanting for a while. Was waiting for it to show up on the much cheaper SPEU but my birthdays coming up and I got tired of the hunt. Also grabbed this Ropp Stout Pot. I've been wanting another short...
