    Woot! New Pipe

    Thanks mlaug. What's the new hobby? Pipe smoking is the new hobby for me :) This probably takes me up to about 18 or 20 pipes all together. I really need to stop buying them but I don't see that happening for the foreseeable future either ;) These are my first ebay pipe purchases so I'm hoping...

    Woot! New Pipe

    @Zanthal Yup, it's an estate. $36 shipped too. I'm excited. Problem is that it takes a few weeks to get anything out here (not always but it's best to not get the hopes up) so now comes the hard part...waiting for it!

    Woot! New Pipe

    Nope, no stingers. Although I don't own many estates (except for the ones that became estates after I bought them ;) ). Just a couple I bought from Lonestar. That's rapidly changing now though :D

    Woot! New Pipe

    And the woots are now doubled due to just acquiring a BC "VIRGINIA MAJOR 1710" for $15. Trying to copy the images but it isn't working too well. Looks really clean. Didn't notice it's shipping from Italy though haha. So I probably won't have that one for a while.

    Woot! New Pipe

    OTD, you're good :) I originally posted a link to the auction that had all that info in it and forgot to post it when I edited the post. Yup, it's a Sav Lollo.

    Flying with Pipes and Tobacco?

    I didn't bring my tool with me when I flew just because I didn't want to worry about the possible hassle. I've had to fly with screwdrivers on work trips before. Here's one story: I flew from Dallas to El Paso with my back pack (only there for 2 days so didn't need much in the way of...

    Woot! New Pipe

    Ah, I've heard of those but never looked into them. I can definitely see where they get the name :)

    Woot! New Pipe

    I decided to order a few cheap estate pipes for on base so that if they get lost or stolen or something it's not such a big deal. Just won this: Anybody know what the deal is with that bit? I've never seen one quite like that. I'm bidding on a couple others too so hopefully more new pipes to...

    No Smoking in or outside your house

    When I go out with one of my pipe buddies (which is probably 80% of the time I go out) we bring our pipes and try to go somewhere to smoke. Places with smoking sections, outdoor area, etc. Last month he calls me and tells me that he's at the movie tavern and wants to know if I want to come out...

    Anyone realize how crazy and ridiculous we all are?

    That is an amazing way of describing my #1 complaint with cigars. I'm gonna steal it :) BTW, I've pretty much perfected not getting any saliva on my stogies on the rare occasion when I smoke them. Makes for a much more enjoyable experience. YMMV.

    I have a question for everybody. Please answer

    As to the whole "second hand smoke" thing: Does that mean that if you didn't smoke but were occasionally around smoke you would report that? I report it because you can absorb the nic in your mouth and nose, not just in your lungs but not because it's like 2nd hand smoke.

    I have a question for everybody. Please answer

    I just say "only an occasional pipe or cigar".

    New Pipe

    I think it should be called a Nesting Pipe. It's not quite like the Russian nesting dolls but that's what it made me think of. Good design. Way to think outside the box on that :)

    Frog Morton on the Bayou

    I can't speak highly enough for the Virginia flakes I had while I was at home. Might be worth giving that a shot. I had the Orlik Golden Sliced (which is an amazing smoke for the price), and the 2011 Chrismas Cheer, which I had trouble keeping lit but when I did...lets just say I understand the...

    Straight Tobaccos

    I did some pretty heavy reading at first. I think I know what everything is supposed to taste like but my pallet sucks and I can't seem to pull the flavors others do from blends. AKA Them: "the bar-b-q flavor in this on is the X tobacco" Me: "Bar-b-whatnow?" :) I was thinking maybe if I just got...

    Straight Tobaccos

    So another thread (about English blends I think) reminded me of something I've been meaning to ask. I really don't know what kinds of tobacco I'm tasting other than virginia and latakia when I'm smoking. Would it be recommended to order something like the mclelland blending tobaccos so I know...

    8 oz Esoterica Penzance

    If you doing that is wrong then I don't want you to be right ;) Thanks BTW, got me a bag. I should be set on Penzance for a while now.

    Anyone realize how crazy and ridiculous we all are?

    I never really thought about it the way many of you are putting it, but I like doing what I can from scratch/taking the methodical way instead of the instant way. I wonder if that's a common trait amongst people who smoke pipes. When I cook, I do it from scratch. When I drink, it's an evening...

    What turns you on...

    I have to buy all online so if I buy something that wasn't recommended then it's based on the description the site gives.

    Red Alert - Penzance and Stonehaven on deck

    Dangit. Missed it again. And I even had asked them to email me when they had it in stock and got no email :( Guess I'll try again.
