    Pipes of Sherlock Holmes

    Great read. Thank you.

    Bernie Memes

    This one is the best. A modern day meme with my youthful musical memories.

    I Finally Found A Pipe For Embers

    Are they collectors items?

    I Finally Found A Pipe For Embers

    It seems like an old picture. Do you think it was in the 1920's because of the fur coat?

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

    The Frankenstein Chronicles - Netflix Touches a little on Mary Shelly's Frankenstein story but the show is it's own story. I don't think the bloody scenes are too over the top. My wife doesn't like blood plus I don't think she finds the storyline or characters very interesting. I enjoy the...

    Dorisco Mixture

    I read a review of this on TR just recently. I remember I tried it many years ago. If I recall correctly, it was a pleasant smoke. I don't know why I didn't keep it around. I'll have to revisit it. My tin had the design on it like on TR, not the design currently on SP.

    Do Barber Shops Still Give a Straight Razor Shave?

    Sounds like me. I remember at first the barber put a board across the arms of the chair because when my father first started taking me to the barber I was too short.

    If Only I Had A Spare $2.5K...

    I don't have the eye to compare pipes when they get in the expensive ranges (if that makes any sense).

    What's Your Favorite Brand(s)?

    I guess I should have said Dunhill without the Peterson reference because it's only the Dunhill remakes I would buy from Peterson.

    What's Your Favorite Brand(s)?

    C&D and Peterson (Dunhill)

    Zippo Lighter or Butane Lighter

    I've always used a Bic. They have one now with a stem that's a lot shorter than the candle lighting stem Bic, but still taller than the old Bic. I feel like they made it just for us pipe smokers!

    Oldest Tobacco That Exist?

    I guess C & D cellar series(?) is shooting for just the right amount of time to cellar, not too long, not too short.

    C&D Big 'N' Burley

    Does C & D still make 'Kelly's Coin' ? I think that's one of their strongest.

    C&D Big 'N' Burley

    Big n Burley is a great blend. I had some in a mason jar for a year and it really smoothed out for me. It's an evening smoke for me, any time of the year.

    Shipping Woes

    I understand your frustration. I think mail and package delivery is being swamped. I haven't ordered anything where I wouldn't shrug my shoulders if a package was very late.

    The First Blend That Got You Into Pipe Smoking

    Palladin's Black Cherry got me into pipes, almost got me out too! I went through a lot of different aro's and non-aro's. The aha moment was Dunhill's Night Cap.
