    Breaking In A New Pipe:What Actually Does It Involve?

    Never broke in a pipe in my life, just fill up and smoke.

    What is the sweetest smoking pipe you own ?

    Yup. All my pipes are about the same in terms of sweet smoking, because I get shed of any that don't.

    list of solid/reliable pipe lighters?

    If you smoke outdoors, Zippo with pipe insert is far and away the best choice. Let it burn one second before drawing and there is no fuel taste whatsoever (assuming you use Zippo fuel). If you don't carry it on you, keeping it in a small, airtight container helps prolong the refill interval...

    She's NOT Going to Make it After All

    Most of her "talent" was being surrounded by truly talented comedic actors. VanDyke, Amsterdam, Rose Marie, Asner, Knight, Leachman, Harper, White...they were the heart and soul of those shows. I'm sorry she's gone. She spent most of her adult life in precarious health, it's amazing she lived...

    Samuel Gawith Blends and Quality

    All two of the SG blends I've tried (Kendal Mayor's Chocolate Flake and Firedance Flake) were very high quality in terms of the tobaccos used. The gripe I have is they come too wet to stay lit. Not soggy as a bog, more like an oily-greasy wetness. I had to leave them out on a plate to dry for...

    Brown Sugar Flake: Review With Pictures.

    Except none those you mentioned in that shamelessly lame defense represent commonly-edible substances like brown sugar, which pretty much everyone in the first world has tasted and with which there is a strong memory association. And I don't doubt it's a great-tasting flake. I merely mentioned...

    Dunhill Flake Review

    All Dunhill blends come at the perfect moisture level balancing maximum smokability with maximum taste. That's what makes Dunhill a premium blender, and why their blends are worth paying more for. Some people think they know better than a blender whose been in the biz for over a century, and...

    What's The Strangest Thing You Have Found In Your Tobacco?

    I found some nicotine in an OTC! Amphora actually has some.

    Does cold weather affect smell?

    Yep. I don't smell near as bad as when it's hot out.

    New Orleans!

    Saints And Sinners for crawfish; The Olde Coffee Shop for breakfast or lunch. N.O. Creole cooking at its best.

    Securty Took my Tamp Away

    Of course the tamper went home with the rentacop. But your daughter went home, that's the main thing, especially considering a little POS like a Miata is only slightly safer than a baby pram in any kind of collision with a larger vehicle.

    Brown Sugar Flake: Review With Pictures.

    I wouldn't mind a strong, cool-burning blend of quality tobacco with the taste and aroma of brown sugar. However apparently that's not what this blend is, the name is a deception.

    Cant taste tobacco

    +1, but I would have tossed my cookies out the car window as well. Actually I started with cigars, then went to the pipe. Luckily there was a B&M by campus, so I bypassed the drugstore crap in the beginning. Only when I tried some later on did I realize how lucky I had been.

    My first burley smoke

    Burley encompasses a sizeable variety of tobacco. The good stuff is great, smoked straight or in a good-quality blend. Why it has a bad rep is because the lion's share of flavored aros and most OTC's are based on burley, because it is very good at absorbing the flavor of whatever it is...

    Cob Stems

    If you want to stay true to the look of a cob-smoking shoeless hillbilly, check out the Old Dominion line. The tubular reed stems are not only authentic to the genre, but almost unbreakable. The only downside is, being tubular they aren't as comfortable to clench, and tend to rotate bowl-down...

    What Do You Look For In A Va/Per?

    Mixture 79.1

    Sounds like a shameful waste of 2 tablespoons of booze, but when you flush the 79 down the toilet, the sewer rats will be grateful for you having mitigated the putrifaction that is M79.

    Ginger's Favorite

    I don't think Ginger Rogers smoked a pipe. More likely it's named for Ginger Baker, a more likely pipesmoker, although he probably didn't smoke tobacco in it ;)
