    New Law In CA

    Reminds me of another report I read where the "researchers" (and I use that term loosely) claimed in their "study" that a town in Montana had something like an (absurd) 60% reduction in heart attacks during a period of 6 months. The 6 month period was following a public smoking ban, but after 6...

    Facebook?

    Ditto. And set everything to private so only they can see your profile, photos, etc and what you post. It kills me when people talk about privacy issues and then you access their page and everything is accessible to every person on earth.

    savinelli leonardo da vinci self portrait came today!!

    What others mentioned: just smoke it. I don't bother with the 1/4, 1/2 bowl thing, but its up to you.

    Poor Old Santa

    When people are that consumed by something as innocuous as Santa smoking a pipe it merely shows how bat shit insane they are. After the Century 16 Theater tragedy people were saying that we need to do a better job of identifying the mentally ill. The lady in the article; thats what mental...

    More TAD! Better than ever too.

    Those are two of my favorite aromatics and the only two bulk tobaccos that I buy. Stokkebye is some good stuff. I'm jealous! :D

    Penzance substitute?

    A year ago I would have disagreed. When I first opened a tin of ASTB, it smelled like a jar of Spanish olives. However, its been in a mason jar for the past year and after reading your post, I cracked it open and took a whiff. Well I'll be damned! I think you might be on to something here. I...

    Hey Cob Fans! Check Out This Bargain!

    Reminds me of the guy who keeps listing his Captain Black ceramic tobacco jar for $59.99 while others post theirs up for less than half that and sell them. I bought one for $7. Yet there he is with the same one, week after week, month after month...$59.99. Theres a fine line between stubborn and...

    New Savinelli Baronet Bruyere 316EX!

    Yes and no. The few aromatics I've become fond of do in fact seem to taste better in a larger bowl (but not all of them) and even though I don't smoke them as much as other blends, I wanted to find a pipe that I could dedicate to just those aromatics. This pipe so far has worked out really well...

    Do Pipe Snobs Really Exist?

    Hes a troll. Quit responding and he'll lose interest and go away on his own.

    One hell of a Meer on ebay

    I saw that one the other day and needed a mop to clean up the puddle of drool. You should have seen the Davy Jones (from Pirates of the Caribbean) meerschaum he had on Ebay about a month ago. It was absolutely stunning!

    Never ending bowl

    Ditto. I've noticed too that every once in awhile you'll get a bowl that kinda fights with you the first 10-15 mins. Then suddenly does exactly as you described, burns cool, no relights and never seems to end. :puffy:

    New Savinelli Baronet Bruyere 316EX!

    You were spot on cigrmaster! My first bowl, I packed my usual way but it just wasn't working as well. I tried packing it looser and that didn't work. So I took your advice and packed it a lot tighter and that took care of it. I will say though, with a bowl this big, you really need to get a get...

    Penzance substitute?

    The only thing I've found that comes closest to Penzance is Old Ironsides from Dan Tobacco. Unfortunately, its harder to find than Penzance because Dan discontinued it. :(

    New Savinelli Baronet Bruyere 316EX!

    Thanks guys! Sorry the pics weren't better, all I have is a cell phone camera. After posting the pics I loaded it up with some Stokkebye Dansk Black and had my first bowl. Smoked pretty well, but with that big bowl, it was a little tricky at first to get it lit. I think I may have to alter my...
