    Gas War !

    The lowest price I remember for gas was 19.9 cents/gal. I will be going to Isla Margarita in Jan. and I hear their gas is 19.9/gal. On a side note: IMHO the greatest invention is the snow blower. While I was living in the Colorado mountains, one week we had 122 inches of snow. I ran the snow...

    Women Have No Sense Of Humor

    Gotta love that PMon. Thanks for the laugh Bradley. While building my house, one of the workers I hired to help, brought his Pit mix to the job site. The dog ate, not just chewed, but ate a few two by drops. He also ate a roll of pink florescent plastic tape that was left over from laying out...

    Ahoy There! Anyone Up for More Newbie Questions?!

    Some advice I've been given on this site includes, slow down, sip, and clenching helps control your puffing pace. Also make sure you dry your tobacco, if it is wet the steam created will burn your tounge. I reccomend using a tounge scrapper before you brush your teeth, it helps relieve the...

    My First True Churchwarden...A 'WoodieWarden

    What a great score. Count me in on the jealous crowd. I recently aquired my first Kaywoodie and was suprised about how fantastic it smokes. I'm also glad to hear the stem cleaning is going well.

    Bad Grandpa Trailer (NSFW)

    I may watch a jackass movie, I got a chuckle out of the trailer. Often a movie I think will be good, disappoints me. While this caught my interest I still have my doubts about being entertained for the length of the entire movie.

    Reply From P&C On Crappy Packing

    Therein lies the unanswered problem. I wouldn't want to be a customer that receives these same tins later.

    Love this pipe. The stem making and silver band really set off this BBB pipe. Stunning looking pipe.

    Reply From P&C On Crappy Packing

    I appreciate the information. I placed an order this morning and hope it gets processed and packaged correctly. I imagine that Russ will be on top of the managers and packaging, so I'm hoping for no problems. I'm sorry you got caught in a snafu Bradley.

    Learning to Slow Down

    Aside from going locomotive with a churchwarder, try clenching as an aid to help slowing down. Here's a link full of tips posted here earlier by member Kashmir. Kashmir's advice has certainly helped me enjoy the pipe.

    3P

    Good review Cortez, I think I'll pass on this one without trying it for myself. I don't want to spend the preperation time required, and there are others mentioned that are easier to prep.

    Short Smoke?

    I have two Dunhill size 2 pipes and two others that are even smaller, (size 1 ?). I still seem to get twenty min. to a half hour smoke from these small pipes. They are good for a short walk with my dog. On a side note, my larger pipes seem to smoke better with few relights.
