    Fargo Season 3?

    For three seasons now we've enjoyed incredible casting, great story lines, offbeat dialogue, Season 2 being a prequel to Season 1, UFOs, Ronald Reagan on the hustings and now Ewan McGregor playing brothers who are polar opposites. Weird. Quirky. Darkly funny. And for you SJW types, this series...

    Nice Wally Frank White Bar

    Very handsome pipe. The White Bars were from England and, if memory serves, made by Comoy's. Fnord

    Into The Badlands

    The level of despair in most post-apocalyptic novels and movies plus TV shows is soul crushing. Anybody who can bring the slightest grin is as welcome as can be. Fnord

    Review of the 3rd Episode of The Son

    That illicit river crossing was nuts! Were Lewis guns commercially available at this time? (Neptune certainly didn't seem to be a stranger to that weapon maybe thanks to the Philippine Insurrection.) I also enjoyed the flashbacks this evening as young Eli gains additional acceptance among the...

    What's Good About P&C

    Ouch. They better be in damage control right quick. I feel bad for you guys and every bit as bad that P&C has slipped just as far. Fnord

    Review of The Son,Second Show

    Yeah, it was an up and down episode. The scalping scene was amazing but it wandered far and wide when Eli went off to smoke opium, get his ashes hauled and question his youth. (And who was the older female lover? She spoke accented English so is there any chance she was was his young Comanche...

    What's Good About P&C

    Okay. I'll be that guy. What's going on? I'm reading P&C had a meltdown, a young pipe intern was sacrificed and now some smokers are getting Grant coupons in the mail. If you're a victim, and haven't heard from them, throw out the dye, ignite a flare and start yelling, "Over here! Over here!"...

    Bailey Crossed The Rainbow Bridge Today

    Jason: These pets of ours enter our lives, become family members and just don't hang in there long enough. I'm hurting for you, friend. Prayers up for you and yours. Fnord

    Homeland Sucks

    Haven't seen "Homeland" yet but have been enjoying the very believable "Designated Survivor" until last week's episode. Oh my goodness! Bad people exploded a series of bombs that took out POTUS, VPOTUS, Cabinet, Supreme Court, Senate, House and many, many others and, within the first 100 days of...

    Thoughts On This Preben Holm?

    Dixie: You're absolutely right. Somebody else will. I love the grain but it's just too boxy for me. Still, it's very unusual and I do like it in a weird kind of way. Holm was all about production and if he never laid hands on it you can bet that it was cut, drilled and finished by some of the...

    I Just Love This

    I increased my vocabulary today listening to Rush. He repeatedly referred to the North Koreans as "Norks." Brilliant. LMAO, Fnord

    1917 Dunhill Inner Tube 39 Restoration [pic heavy]

    Impressive call all the way around. To Oldewylie for choosing to honor a well used and much loved 100 year old pipe. And to Piffyr for honoring that request with such a quality restoration. I'm very grateful belonging to this clambake when I see the level of respect shown to this old warhorse...

    Anyone smoking an E. Wilkes pipe?

    I just sent Miss Carole an email a few minutes ago asking if she had anything comparable to DH NC. I smoke one of her ex-husband's pipes in my weekly rotation and I damn well want to smoke one of her/his blends before the close. I'm a sentimentalist like that.... Fnord

    Bertram 150

    Sorry I missed this the first time around. Good Lord. That's a massive hunk of briar, Frogman! It's also the first 150 I've ever seen depicted. You know the Bertram history and you're on the record for enjoying massive pipes, so I have to ask. How does it smoke? Do you remember, 3 or 4 years...

    AMC TV Series Saturday. The Son

    Thanks, Cabinfever. Bradley informed me they made several magazines for the Winchester Model 1907. It's a rifle and caliber I wasn't familiar with. Any guess as to the sidearm in your pix? The pouches have me leaning to a 1911. Fnord

    Blatter & Blatter Pipes

    Davet: There's a fine damned line - often smudged - between the Cutty/Zulu/Dublin. http://www.glpease.com/Pipes/Shapes/Dublin.php Your pipes are beauties and my IMCO lighter, like yours in the 2nd pix, is trying to give up the ghost. I usually light it with another lighter because I bought it...

    AMC TV Series Saturday. The Son

    Woohoo, Bradley! I love a Western with some meat on the bone. I liked Edna Ferber's "Giant." Read it several times and truly love the movie. If this is the better mousetrap then I'm all in. Who wrote "The Son"? When "Seraphim Falls" came out I remember an interview with Brosnan and he...

    Man, I love my B&M! - Jackpot!

    Nice haul, Tim . But major props for serving with the Old Guard. http://www.oldguard.mdw.army.mil/home Talk about a group of squared away young men and women. Of course, they're not show ponies but the professionalism and gravitas they bring to their more public duties is just damned...

    I'm So Mad

    Unlike several posters on this thread, I've never killed a man. I've never wanted to kill somebody but, I would kill if I felt that my family's lives and/or my life was threatened. As we know it, the perps were dressed in black, faces covered and armed with a brass knuckle and a knife. (I sit to...
