    I Refuse to Smoke Any Pipe Made After WWII ...

    I have a yello bole from the 1930's and a GBD Extra (not Xtra) that I think is also from the 30's but I've never been able to find an answer. The yello bole smokes really well, but I'm still a bit of a noob so my opinion doesn't count for much.

    Sterling Tobacco

    I got a sample of Klompen Kloggen, it's very, very nice. It's listed as an aromatic, but only the shag burley has topping, the rest is a blend of virginia, turkish, and Connecticut shade leaf which gives it a slight cigar flavor. It seems to be dry and burn fast, or maybe I just wish the...

    Sick of Pipes, Show Us Your Pets or Classic Cars

    I had a 1969 Mercury Cougar, used to look a lot like this one. In fact, it WAS this one.

    Of Broken Pipes and Nicotine Kicks

    I think with cigs it's the speed of nicotine delivery that makes them more addictive than pipes. Cigarettes cause peaks and crashes since you get a huge amount of nicotine transferred via the lungs in a 5 minute period of time, while a pipe will gradually raise your nicotine level over a period...

    "New" Pipe Horror Stories

    I once tested the draw on an old pipe I was considering in an antique shop. I got a mouth full of old ash and tobacco, and probably other nasty bits. I don't do that anymore.

    Further proof pipe smoking is on the rise

    That website has some amazing stuff. I definitely want that pipe.

    We Got Hacked

    aside from firewalls and antivirus, everyone should also update their software. That's how most exploits happen, security risks that Microsoft (and other companies) releases patches for but not everyone updates their software regularly. I'm another linux nerd, though, so I don't worry about...

    Show Us Where You Smoke!

    Back porch of my parents house, with (at the time) my only pipe and a tin of Sutliffe I got free. There's a little 'bird island' in the backyard with trees and bird houses and feeders, so I watch the birds as I smoke. Just this week a friend in Scotland sent me a GBD pipe, so now I have two...

    Beards and Pipes

    I have a 'bald spot' on my beard that I don't think looks very good so I never really grow a beard or a tee. Right underneath my soul patch, just a big clear spot before it starts growing again lower on my chin. So I'm always clean shaven, although in college I had an Amish beard going on for...

    Which Languages Can You Speak?

    took Chinese in college and lived in China for a little over a year, so I can speak it fairly well. I speak Spanish decently. French very little. I lived in the UK for a while, as well, so I can speak British. It's strange when you live there for any amount of time, you start to pick up...

    Another scam site to watch out for

    If you look at the whois, you can see that the domain is run out of China.

    Pipe Smoking Discrimination

    Incidentally, I found a reddit pipe forum: http://www.reddit.com/r/PipeTobacco. It's pretty amateurish, though, considering the age of most people on reddit.

    Pipe Smoking Discrimination

    I've seen that, as well. I went to /pipes to see if there were any pipe discussions, but of course there were only weed pipes. One guy tried to start a toby pipe thread but it never really went anywhere.

    Second pipe carving, opinions welcome

    I would do the same, a more ornate Danish style stem may make the misaligned stem not so obvious. But that's probably the OCD in me speaking.

    Well, at least it wasn't used as a stem!

    Disappearing from shelves

    Just today I went to a local B&M, which I thought would be a quality establishment. They had a few tins of some kind of aromatic, so I said I was looking for a Virginia blend that wasn't an aromatic and the guy behind the counter said 'Oh', like I was making conversation or something! As far as...

    Favorite Firearm(s)

    As soon as I have some cash, and don't spend it all on Peterson pipes, I'd like to to get a S&W .357 revolver, or a M1 Garand. I love .357 revolvers, though, such beautiful functionality.

    Slow Puff Cafe

    I'm from Lafayette, too. Lafayette, Indiana. I've always been fascinated with cajun country. Indiana's not an exciting state, but we're a down to earth, unpretentious people. I'm not sure if Hoosiers would be considered yankees or not :puffpipe:

    Oh, great. A US space shuttle was named after the Endeavour, such a great ship.
