    jonesing, I couldn't agree more that this stuff's been coming for a while. I think both of the two major parties are unfortunately trying to take us to the same place. It's just that one's taking us via a prop plane while the other one's taking us via an F-15. :) I'm quite certain that none...

    Fellas, I hate to say "the sky is falling", but I think the SKY IS FALLING. Communism/socialism started with a simple mantra: we have to first take control of the banking, healthcare and educational systems and THEN we can take control of the government. Me thinks we're most of the way there.

    English Blend Advice

    Thanks for the ideas. I just picked up some Escudo Navy De Luxe at my local shop and while I was there I had a tin of Frog Morton in my hand to try but I put it back. Maybe I'm a little gun shy. I'd like to try some Balkan blends, too. That sounds promising. I chastise myself for being too...

    Any snuffers?

    Started years ago with Copenhagen and now use Kodiak regularly. Would really like to quit, however, and just concentrate on my pipes.

    Favorite type of pipe tobacco

    Thanks for the welcome, dunendain. I'm in love right now with Rattray's Hal O' The Wynd. I've been wanting to try something from Samuel Gawith recently too. Anyway, thanks for letting me hang out. It beats the heck out of working!

    Favorite type of pipe tobacco

    Hi everyone. I'm new here and just wanted to thank those responsible for the site. What a great thing to be able to learn more about one of my favorite pastimes. Been smoking a pipe off and on for nearly 20 years. Anywho, back to the topic at hand. My current favorite is a nice Virginia flake.
