    Democratic Lawmakers Call on FDA to Remove all Flavored E-Cigarettes

    Lamented Pipes: The Ones that Got Away

    As much of a Castello fan as I am, I don’t regret letting any of the ones I traded or sold over the years get away. I got fair value for every single one and they went to good homes. I do regret turning loose of a Radice Clear G Dublin, a DunhilI 848 clone, purchased in 1983, with gorgeous...

    Have You Quit Pipe Smoking In the Past, and Why?

    Yes, in fall 2001 Until summer of 2016. Serious health issues that started to be more favorably managed over the intervening years, then I retired and figured “WTF”?

    Bells Three Nuns Nun Nicer

    The following from John Loring, a broken pipe, is preserved on Pipedia and is consistent with my xperience when I actually chased 3 Nuns far and wide in the 1980’s and early 1990’s, mostly so I could give what I turned up to the late Basil Sullivan. “ Prior to the 1980's Three Nuns came either...

    Inoperative. Everything, including the period of time the FDA can take to review applications under the various routes such as PTMA, keys off the 9/9/2020 date. But you hit the nail on the head in one of your replie, the FDA is focused on youth marketing, vapes most urgently. This is why a...

    Deeming Day?

    In point of fact, “rumors” of McClellands demise were posted on this and other forums at least a few months before the hammer officially dropped. The overwhelming response to these posts was: (1) accusations of fear mongering (2) confidence that either the company or recipes would be sold and...
