    Do You Return Your Shopping Cart?

    There are some countries where the shopping cart return man service, payed by the Center, is regarded as a real job for unskilled workers, that provides some small income for the family at least.

    Current State of The Pipe Filter

    Im German, yes, and you can find more 9mm pipes here to use with filters than unfiltered. But I refuse to smoke filtered pipes, don’t like to hassle around with soaky carbon or whatever filter. Good for me, there is a minority buying the unfiltered pipes here, you can find non- filtered...

    Smoking in the morning

    As nicotine addict I need at least a short smoke usually of Virginia in one of my smaller pipes along with a morning cup of instant coffee before breakfast.

    What Music are You Listening to? September, 2023

    Heard that Mendelssohn Bartholdi masterpiece live on Saturday with a choir of 80 singers, a huge Sinfonieorchester and a female soprano soloist in a Catholic Church in my hometown. Impressive energy. They also performed Puccinis “Messa di Gloria”. An opera for the church.

    [REFERENCE] Things I Found in My Tobacco

    Great investigation, especially the hint how to decide, weather there is some soluble salt or organic mould via vinegar test. Thanks a lot.

    Vinyl Set Up

    That’s also nice but still missing the angled connector. Just measure the height you need to put the connector with the wire under the bottom of the enclosure to make shure it’s fitting under.

    Vinyl Set Up

    Unfortunately most of the CD players can’t really deliver, what’s written on the CD. The output stages are poorly designed and often sonically overcorrected in middle class players. Some of my LPs played on my record player are better than same stuff on CD, not much crackle on those.

    What Music are You Listening To? August, '23

    Calabash-shaped Pipe and Real Calabash Gourd Pipe

    It’s not easy to grow them for pipes, I’ve read that they put some compression to the fruit to get the right angle while the gourd is building up.

    Vinyl Set Up

    Here is some information on the space design piece maybe worth a look, especially what modern cartridge if you want to swap it. At least try a new needle to protect your records. The design is mega. I found a former eBay deal from years ago in Great Britain for around 500 £
