    Lane 1Q Perfection

    I think Lane 1Q was the first tin I ever purchased after Googling "what my grandfather probably smoked". I haven't had it in years, but I can still identify someone smoking it from across the room... back when we were allowed to socialize and smoke.

    Eccentric Texan, Arriving.

    Welcome from Dallas!

    Videos You Love!?!?!

    This is my all-time favorite music video. Blew me away when it came out, and I got to see them play the song at a show a few years back.

    Videos You Love!?!?!

    This video terrified me as a child and, while it’s one of my favorite songs, I will always feel some creepy vibes whenever it comes on the radio. The video has grow on me quite a lot.

    ***What Are You Smoking, March 2021?***

    Unnamed Dublin and my recent purchase.

    Intro

    Welcome from Dallas!

    Snow

    Indeed! Most of the major repairs are underway, and they’re pulling up carpet all over the place. It’ll be ugly for a few more weeks, but we’re only operating around 50% due to the pandemic so we can absorb the loss of space/facilities.

    ***What Are You Smoking, March 2021?***

    Stopped by a brick and mortar cigar shop here in Dallas on a whim, and found they carry a good selection of Peterson‘s and Savinelli’s and about 20 different tins and some bulk blends! I couldn’t leave without buying something, so I grabbed my first C&D Haunted Bookshop after seeing so many...

    What are You Watching, 2021? Rating [*/5]

    Just finished Lovecraft Country, and my Better Half has finally convinced me to watch Deadwood.

    If You Had to Choose Only One Tobacco

    Sutliff Eastfarthing or Boswell’s Northwoods, depending on which of the two I’d last smoked.

    USPS Delays?

    I have a package “In Transit” for 4 weeks now, but my recent CoJ tobacco order arrived early. I expected some delay due to our storms here in Texas, but it certainly seems to be luck of the draw lately.

    Water Flush Cleaning Technique

    I could have sworn they taught us about another variety down there....

    Shocking Lack of Knowledge

    My Better Half rolls her own cigarettes, and I just want to remind the forum that many local “tobacco shops” are also the preeminent purveyors of sex toys and body jewelry. They also occasionally have pouches of American Spirit. I rarely have to visit another store.

    Cleaning Routine

    I use this exact routine. With a couple of the imperfect/unfinished pipes I‘ve worked on more than others, I’ll spend a little more time with a cloth all over (assuming I like the pipe- I don’t smoke a pipe if I don’t like it). I don’t have any pipes with significant monetary value, though, so...

    What Do (Did) You Do

    That was first career- I miss some aspects, and others not so much. I still get calls/cases from time to time, and it will certainly continue to shape me in the future. I’m in medical education now, and don’t smoke on the job. My pipe time is almost exclusively during my commute or on my...

    ***What Are You Smoking, February 2021?***

    Breaking out my favorite pipe to try out the new arrival of Briarworks Bacon Old Fashioned. The other jar I ordered didn't survive UPS, so I’ll be focused on this for the next few days. Pipe is an old Road Town Dublin Straight Briar that I sanded and shaped more to my liking. Smokes like a...

    What Are You Listening To? ~ February 2021

    I find it just a little unsettling that my spellcheck keeps changing ‘Opeth’ into ‘Oprah’.
