    College Smoking

    Truly. Most of my doctoral dissertation was powered by pipe smoking. And to OP, welcome to the boards!

    The Masters

    Yeah that chip did him in. Hard to make any downhill putt at Augusta.

    The Masters

    Not anymore. Schauffele will be lucky to leave 16 with double.

    The Tobbacolypse: Would it Affect You at All?

    If it were to happen tomorrow, I’d be ok. I’ve got enough for 3-4 years at my current smoking rate, and I’d probably slow down to 5-7 bowls/week instead of 2-3/day. If I’m forced to completely quit, I’d be sad because I love this hobby, but I’d be fine. I just took a week long break while on...

    Another One Bites the Dust

    Haha! So true. It’s amazing how just a little rain makes plants go nuts in the desert. But still way better than the 4-6 times/month mowings necessary in the Midwest.

    Another One Bites the Dust

    Yes! One of the best moments in our move here from Minnesota was when I sold the lawnmower. Left the snow shovel for the new owners. Get a place with a pool, though, and you’ll do just as much work. :LOL:

    Another One Bites the Dust

    Stag still has two locations in the PHX area. Same ownership as Ye Olde, and a good selection as well. AZ is a pretty cool state! While this is certainly the case in some situations, this was not the case here. Ye Olde closed because of a lease dispute/price hike with their landlords. I’m...

    Happy Easter!

    Happy Easter everyone! I’ve already played a sunrise service, then I’ve got a live streamed service at 9:30 and another outdoor service at 11. Then the wife and I get in the car and drive to Colorado. She’ll be doing the driving. :LOL:

    My First Castellos

    Great pipes, and what a fantastic b-day gift! The “K”s stand for sizing in rusticated/ blasted pipes, and grading in smooth pipes, although there seems to be variation in how they are applied to the rusticated/blasted pipes. The grades/sizes are: K, KK, KKK, KKKK, and G.

    Brands to Avoid?

    Acid has a bunch of different lines/flavors, but their most popular, the Kuba Kuba, is a little like smoking a Lakeland, only in a cigar. I've had one. That was enough. FWIW I love Lakelands in a pipe, but I've had very few infused cigars that I enjoyed. Right on about Gurkhas though...

    Where Have You Traveled Outside Your Native Country?

    International travel is one of life’s greatest pleasures! I am also American, and here’s my international travel in the order it occurred: Canada England Honduras Mexico Italy Denmark (1 day in Copenhagen) Germany Austria (1 day) Switzerland (1 day) France Spain Czech Republic Poland Slovakia...

    Pipe Number 4 In the Alaska 7 day Set (Oil Themed)

    Wow! A classic shape completely elevated to another level. Well done, and congrats! Three to go...

    Watch City Rouxgaroux

    10 minutes! I think that's even faster than the last Halloween drop! Nice work, everyone!

    Watch City Rouxgaroux

    Got my 6 oz. 2:30 was the winner!

    Watch City Rouxgaroux

    Thanks my man! I can't believe it took me this long to realize WCC had an email list, and to sign up for it.

    Watch City Rouxgaroux

    So, tomorrow is April 1st, so it's Rouxgaroux day at Watch City! Great blend, and a must try for anyone who enjoys a good VaPer. Anyone have any idea what time it will drop? Last fall's drop went ridiculously fast, so to get this will require advance planning. Last but certainly not...

    G. L. Pease Fillmore

    Update: A little more than two weeks later, I've finished the tin, and all of my tasting notes stand. Great blend! I will now be awaiting the next GL Pease sale so I can stock up on this to cellar.

    What Are the Most Fireproof Blends?

    SG FVF flake...really, most of the Gawith/SG flakes. But the one that takes the cake for me is Ken Byron’s Byronic Slices. There’s some great red Va flavor in there, but it’s damn near impossible to smoke.

    Camel Meat

    My experience has been a little different. I consistently find game meat to be better and more flavorful than American farmed meats. I think the variety in the diet and a “free range” lifestyle is part of the reason. Haven’t had camel before but I’d definitely try it. I’ll try pretty much...

    Why Did D&R Stop Selling Picayune?

    Short answer: The company was sold and the new owners decided to discontinue some of the more poorly selling blends.
