    ***What Are You Smoking, November 2020?***

    Sweet mainly, with just a little fruitiness mixed in. One warning -- the stuff is like Irish Blessing or Molto Dolce -- needs a LOT of drying to be able to keep the sucker lit. Have another bowlful of something to smoke while you're waiting!

    ***What Are You Smoking, November 2020?***

    Dear old Frigate, in an equally dear old Nording Fantasy. Deliberate choice for this great morning.

    "Less" and "Fewer," Does It Matter?

    To quote my dear old grandfather (more later elsewhere). "Right is right & wrong isn't." Is you is, or is you ain't, IOW. (BTW, yes, my grandfather was being only slightly devilish when he said it.)

    Happy Thanksgiving.

    Happy gobble, brethren & cistern! Wear sweatpants & don't eat TOO much! As yohanan said, lots to be thankful for! Bill

    Opinion on My Sasieni Purchased

    Got it from mkelaw? Any 4-dot in decent shape is worth it IMNSHO. Can't help on the date unfortunately.

    Comoy’s Special Question

    A really close look confirms -- definitely pre-Cadogan. Hard to make out, but assuredly a 3-piece C.

    Cigar Smoker Saves His Dog!

    This old boy obviously knew what he was doing, but mostly you shouldn't mess with even young gators. When they chomp down it's holy hell to get the jaws open. Don't want to mess with this old dude either!

    PipesandCigars(dotcom) -- What in the World?? I am Confused.

    Mostly good but a few issues every now and then. Not my first choice though.

    Matches vs. Lighters

    Butane for me. I know letting a fluid lighter go for a few seconds lets some of the stench burn off, but I like being able to fire up ASAP. Used to go with matches at times, but I usually don't keep an ashtray handy.

    Pocket Knives

    I do get where mawnan is coming from. :) But customers do want to see what they're looking at before handling. Leaving it partially open for an extended period does weaken the springs/locks of course.
