Will Pipe Smoking Ever be Mainstream Again?
Years ago I remember an episode of The Waltons when John Boy was in college & had come home to visit. After dinner he started to pull out his pipe & the family looked at him in astonishment or amusement (depending on the particular character).

Will Pipe Smoking Ever be Mainstream Again?
I don’t see attitudes towards pipesmoking changing unless there is a drastic change in the culture. This could come about due to economic & political events.

A Question For You Ebay Sellers...

How Can People Taste Anything Without Retrohaling?
I can taste without the snork. Doing so can add a dimension to how I experience the taste however. I couldn’t snork with every puff; that would raise havoc with my sinuses.- 5star

Why Have I Never Lost My Taste For Latakia?
Why ? because it’s the greatest stuff ever. It reminds me of great times up in the mountains in front of a campfire. It reminds me of hunts and fishing high alpine lakes. That, plus it tastes damned good.- 5star

A Book I Purchased is Currently on a North American Post Office Tour Courtesy of the USPS.
