    Got some project pipes!

    Alas, no time to get into it these past couple weeks. I do see some daylight ahead and I plan to get that stripped down. I'll post pics, promise!

    Did Comoy's Make Disney World Pipes?

    Go ahead and list on eBay. I triple dog dare ya! Forgoing the conventional etiquette and jumping straight to the "triple dog dare"I am indeed trying to lure out the true beast of Disney pipe collectors. :-)

    Seattle Pipe Clubs Potlach a Joe Lankford Blend. First impression

    Nice job on that review Shane! Makes me want to try some Potlatch to be sure. Try some different pipes, time of day, that kind of thing, sometimes a blend will show another attribute not previously noted,Iike letting those orientals sing a bit. Sometime just being exposed to atmosphere for a...

    The Attraction of Rhodesians

    I don't think I can say there's another shape like a traditional Rhodesian that hangs quite as well, bent bulldogs a very close second. Al does bring a very, very strong point to the table with that specimen of lovely he posted. The pipes ain't bad either.

    The Absolute Sweetest VA You Know?!

    I have long ago gotten past the McClellend tin note and personally believe that for a US based blender, they do Virginias better than many and possibly most. I do like me some FVF and some British VaPers but it's hard to beat McClellends and they're always available. For any one of us to say...

    Youtube Pipe Presenters Bad Examples

    Agree totally. Pipe smoking vids are about the most painful viewing there is at times. The lip smacking puffing and the uncomfortable silence between first light and first syllable. I'd rather watch grass grow.

    Clay Pipe Smoking

    Very cool and even without saying it I can tell the old man loved his pipe and tobacco.

    L'Anatra (Two Eggs)?

    I'd call it a Cavalier although a very unusual version of such. You'd have to be careful not to get any backwash into the bowl. Different, that's for sure.

    Enjoyed some Krummy kake From Jorsey!

    Shane didn't show up empty handed, some pre-Butera Penzance found its way into my stash, some terrific English Rasberry snuff as well. Ask him how I reacted to a hit of his Indian snuff, White Elephant I think it was called? WOW!

    Creepy eBay Pipe Display Prop

    I'm thinking it's one of those sex robots. "Bring the pipe, it pleases the master".

    Brands you just don't like 5/29/15

    Seacaptain wrote: McClelland Dark Star is pretty nasty. Looks and smells bad too. I read on here that you need to dry it out for a few days, then let it sit for 6 months and then it's good. We'll see. Another that absolutely loves the stuff, reading these posts has me heading to the cabinet to...

    Beau Biden funeral mass

    I share Woodsroad's sentiments. I can't imagine the gut kick Joe is experiencing and I wouldn't wish it on anyone.

    D-Day

    My late FIL was 82nd Airborne 506th Bravo. They jumped on the 5th and got blown off the landing zones. He connected with elements of the 101st and help liberate St Mere Eglise. 33 days of straight combat without rest or resupply. He recounted a similar water filled fox hole story and had his...

    I don't scroll down here too often but I was shocked to see your post. Good health to you and yours, we will miss your posts.

    Drew Estate God series:

    Interesting note. Says on the back of the tin that this series is blended by Daughters & Ryan. The four seasons and the other more traditionally named aro's and Meat Pie are done by STG.

    Dunhill Pipes

    To each his own, thanks to foggy I now own a terrific smoking group 6 panel chestnut, the bit comfort was worth the price of admission on its own. Do I have pipes that smoke as well or better? Yes, but I'm still happy to own a "white spot" as well as some other great British pipes. It's my...
