A Question About Tall Bowls, Help Wanted
I have one of the really tall cobs. My lessons learned include: Smoke shag, or lighter fare. If you don’t, prepare for relights. This is where the hemp twine excels. You can reach down in there with it and light specific spots. Tallboys clench poorly too. I can’t recommend tall pipes...- Egg Shen

Why We're Doomed, aka Paying for a Pizza
It’s comforting to know that “effeminate, self-admiring, emaciated fribbles” have been in existence and the scorn of elders since the 1700’s. In modern terms these are the puny weaklings calling everything that doesn’t suit them “toxic” nowadays.- Egg Shen

Contact Information for Mimmo Provenzano?
Good news, if anyone cares to hear. I was swiftly put in touch with the pipe maker and he has a bit of the material, so a clone will be in the works once I send him a few pieces from the broken one. A surprisingly easy thing to arrange. Thanks guys.- Egg Shen

Contact Information for Mimmo Provenzano?
That may be but thinking on this more, the peak of the bend is likely the weakest point in the pipe. I will have to be more careful with that shape going forward. Perhaps it’s inherent to the form and I should only be removing dottle with a poker.- Egg Shen

Contact Information for Mimmo Provenzano?
I’m not hesitant; I just wanted to run it by the PM crowd to see if anyone had experience with contacting Mimmo directly. Since that isn’t panning out, I’ll write Al-pascia.- Egg Shen

Contact Information for Mimmo Provenzano?
No. I don’t know any though I’d assume they exist on here. I was trying to size up if the cost of a repair is high enough that I’d opt to replace it /have a clone made instead. I don’t know the hourly rate a pipe repair person earns…it could be expensive, being niche. I may send an email...- Egg Shen

Why are Grocery Store Tomatoes so Inferior?
They both taste very good. Texture is good too. Not great but very good. They are either Orange Hat or Hartman’s Yellow Gooseberry I forget. And the red &purple ones are Cosmic Purple Rain.- Egg Shen

Contact Information for Mimmo Provenzano?
Title condensed, etc. See Rule 9. Original: "Does anyone have contact info for and experience with working directly with MIMMO PROVENZANO?" This happened the other day. Sadly it was a newish pipe, only had a few smokes out of it. I ordered it from the Al-pascia site. I palm-clapped out some...- Egg Shen

When I Was In NYC.
The pills are a cop out for half assed parents that won’t do their job. All this ADHD and other sensitivities kids have these days is crap and a real parent would’ve disciplined any of these bs inclinations out at a young age. But parents would rather trust their big pharma shill doctors...- Egg Shen
