    All Your Pipes, Double Your Money; Would You?

    I opine with the "keepers". With a couple of exceptions, the members of my collection are mostly pretty pedestrian and work-horse-y... but that being said, they almost all have either great backstories or were worthy companions in various times. It would be like asking an old and storied...

    Happy Holidays From The Standard Tobacco Company!

    Holy Cao ssj!! Had to look that one up! "Irrational fear of holidays/celebrations, particularly religiously oriented ones" is what I found. Who knew??!!! I'll just stick with my dime-store phobias and neuroses!

    Air Purifiers for Indoor Smoking Odors???

    Like papipeguy, I am a garageophil. 30ish years ago, after My Majesty went to bed(on the 2nd floor of a great old farmhouse), I tried to sneak a tiny-micro-pipe's worth of some happy VA-vanilla in a den/office at the back of the bottom floor. In literally one puff on a small cob, Majesty...

    All I Did Was Offer To Send A Little Tobacco Sampler/Balvenie

    And Tiny Tim(Pagan!:-), the founder of my feast has given me permission to say he is the one and only "scratchadams" here on the forums! Which I do, with great honor and joy! More of the back-story is that my middle son, a great scotch aficionado himself and traveled himself to the distilleries...

    All I Did Was Offer To Send A Little Tobacco Sampler/Balvenie

    This past week, I was touched by the inquisitive excitement and curiosity of one of our new members about the vast range or our beloved pipe tobaccos... so I PMed him and asked if he would like me to send him a wee sampler of the various genres and types etc. He said sure and then asked if I...

    *** What Are You Smoking?*** (December 2016)

    Last night, it was GLP Gaslight in a Vauen paneled apple Rosewood. It was a good long, adorable pipe in the process... I had forgotten quite how strong Gaslight strikes me... and went to bed to be visited by rampaging hordes of demonic hell(nightmares). First time that happened in a while...

    Hits & misses from 2016

    Ok... off the top of my head: HITS: I made entry to the world of estate pipes this year, having never done that before. I have been astounded at the delight per price-point that has made my experiences thus far amazing... of course a trustworthy dealer in the fine folks of SPC... and so far 3...

    Support for C&D

    I'm with Jackswilling: I've got 5 tins of Bijou simmering and several C&D sets of this and that plus quite a few GLPs back... GLP is at least a demi-god in my pipe tobacco pantheon and I see the quality and TLC put into all these products and I'm just fine and dandy with it all. Live long and...

    First Timer on Ebay/Medico Silver Filigree

    I guess you could say I'm a complete fan! What a first-class gentleman, journalist, and pipester! I remember watching him from the first manned space-flights through the rest of his career. Maybe I should have made this its own post. sigh...
