    White Buffalo Calf Born in Yosemite National Park

    Wow that article really undersold the heavier side of the prophecy. If you're the type that believes in omens look up what the tribal leaders are saying about it. Certainly isn't the yea things just got good the original article presented. If you just think it's neat or whatever then don't...

    Happy Birthday Jiminks!!!

    Yeah telling that man to enjoy a pipe is like telling the rest of us to enjoy oxygen.

    What was your first blend and is it part of your current rotation?

    I never liked Captain Black but I love the smell. In fact it was what most of the first pipe smokers I knew smoked. I found though I like the Seven Seas series which is really just a Captain Black rip off that uses less pg to moisturize it. My first blend was some blackberry aromatic from the...

    Intolerance to Most Tobaccos

    to me it sounds like the cut or style is more a factor then type of leaf. I don't know at all but my guess is that coins a.k.a. rolls and flakes burn cooler or slower then ribbons. I have to almost puff with flakes where as ribbons I barely sip on them. If I am right the issue is how fast or...

    Crabs Feel Pain.

    What's wrong with being more humane? Hell even the pythons apparently are designed for more human killing. We are going to eat the thing no reason to sprinkle extra suffering into, unless of course you really just hate crabs. And part of me suspects that the hey crabs feel pain so don't do...

    Damned Commies Complaining About Turkey.

    I personally kind of feel like if people liked turkey more it wouldn't be as rare of a treat. Frankly I can't really stand farm raised turkey myself. Wild bird actually has flavor. So not reading the article because I don't care, but if the point is turkey isn't really as great as people claim...

    Food Affecting Tobacco?

    of course this is how it works. It's why they suggest pairing with certain foods and drinks. Honestly for me I rarely notice too much of an effect either way. But like a lot of things in life this is something you can go as complex or simple as you want. I'd stick with the rough and ready...

    Back Issues of Mad Magazine Online.

    I feel so lucky to have been introduced to the particular brand of cynicism from Spy vs. Spy. Including the clear symbolism of the spies being functionally identical.

    Stolen or Style or Innovation

    Kind of reminds me of the way some bands will not play a single genre but will do their version of many different genres. Like they'll have their funk song or their country song. Nording kind of seems like that with other pipe makers. Funny thing though I often like his versions better.

    Naming Patterns.

    Persian Slipper was a pretty good aromatic from the local B.M. back in the day. Pretty tobacco forward and super smooth and bite free. I actually thought it was named that because of the comfort and smoothness of the smoke. I think we should convince some tobacconist to name blends after the...

    Back Issues of Mad Magazine Online.

    I quiver with anticipation in finding out if the old farts I knew were correct about Mad magazine being the total bomb back in the day. Also just love seeing old stuff out of curiousity.

    Weird Thought?

    You never know what will be valuable in collectables. I am still shocked at how much we got for my Grandmothers hummels. Shocked to find out there are young collectors of that stuff.

    Weird Thought?

    Why did people think it would work out. No way tobacco is going to be with humanity in some way until one of us is gone. It's too engrained in our DNA literally to ever fade completely.

    Not a Smoking Pipe Question

    Things I found Thrifting

    that year book reminds me of a yearbook I found at work from the yearbook company. Jostens. It was from 84 and one of the boss guys has a Dunhill or Costello in every picture of him in the book.
