    ***What Are You Smoking, September, 2023?***

    That’s a pretty pipe full of one of my favorite baccys. Nice.

    1st lb purchased after 16yr test.

    Nice! Glad you found something you like. For me, most of the joy of pipe smoking is aimlessly flailing around in this era of nearly unlimited pipe tobacco choice. I love casting as wide a net as possible. From the rare and hard to find @pipestud tins to the Sutliff and C&D limited releases to...

    Oriental Tobaccos Spoil Subsequent Smokes

    Sometimes when I wear out my palate by smoking too many bowls in a day, my ability to taste tobacco smoke wanes and I get a persistent flavor that doesn’t go away until I rest for a day or two. That flavor isn’t metallic, it’s like unflavored seltzer or soda water. It’s really weird but when I...

    How Many Lbs. a Year?

    Love this. Makes so much sense. Such a sober analysis of tobacco hoarding from your own perspective. Thanks for sharing.

    How do you like that blend? I find it bland and I’m an HU fan.

    Good for you, man. It’s good to support the little guy.

    How Many Lbs. a Year?

    It seems as though you regret socking so much tobacco away. Do you? If so, why? Just curious.

    Huge Estervals Sale

    Yes. It’s awful.

    ***What Are You Smoking, September, 2023?***

    Great shot. Cool looking pipe. The look of the top of that baccy in that bowl tells me it’s ready to begin its journey to the heel. Just a light tamp and it’s off to the slow races.

    What an unlikely mixture. Did you like it?

    Stout B & M Pipe Shop Blends

    Watch City Cigar and LJ Peretti have some of my favorite blends like WCC Old Dominion and LJP #8 Slices. People love Country Squire but I’ve not tried any of their blends. People also like Boswell’s a whole lot especially Northwoods which I don’t happen care for. Uhle’s is another shop that...

    Recent TAD Pick-Ups

    Janneman is excellent. A little like graham crackers dipped in pepper jelly but not as sweet as that. It’s also 1 giant flake that wraps around the inside of the tin which is super fun. If you like VAPers, it would be a mistake to pass on it.

    Fun Insurance Experience Today

    I absolutely get why you think I might be anti profit but I’m not. My position is more nuanced than that. I’m all for profit. Profit drives the economy and is absolutely necessary. It would be really great if we as a society in general and the ultra wealthy specifically, invested in education...

    Fun Insurance Experience Today

    Thank you for your thoughtful and insightful response. I appreciate the time. I do have a simplistic view because my only perspective is that of the consumer which is, arguably, the most important perspective. I could educate myself by reading about it but I have better things to do, like make...

    Fun Insurance Experience Today

    I do believe you. I guess I should have said the current insurance model is a racket. Coverage in order to reduce liability and risk is necessary. I just don’t care for a company that denies claims or shorts payouts so they can make money. It should be more simple. I pay in when things are ok...
