My Favorite Smoke so far
Those McClelland folks know what they're doing, in my opinion. Fully half of the blends in my collection come from them, although I've not tried the PM pipe. Simon- classicgeek

Flavor strength in aromatics
Funny that this should come up, as I just finished a bowl of raspberries and cream. Yum. Yes, that one tastes a lot like it smells. 1 Q is another that is the same. As time goes by, though, my ability to taste the subtle nuances in the flavor is improving. The other trick is to smoke slow...- classicgeek

Joining NaNoWriMo this year
@macnutz: precisely. Before NaNoWriMo, I had two half-finished novels sitting and not going anywhere. Now I have finished one of them and have written two more, with another coming along nicely. (Here's my shout-out: crossed 12,000 words today) It ain't Shakespeare, but no first draft ever...- classicgeek

Why did you join Pipesmagazine.com ?
@logandow: LOL I found this site via finding Bob's videos on packing a pipe. I lurked for a few days before I felt I had to ask a question or two. So I joined up, introduced myself and got to it! Faces have come and gone, but the camaraderie remains. Glad to share. Simon- classicgeek

Joining NaNoWriMo this year
Resurrecting this thread. After all, we are three days into the month. I am participating for the fourth time this year. Got a caper going on, with some mechanics, a banker, his wife, their lovers, a drug ring and an undercover cop. I can't wait to see how this turns out… Simon- classicgeek

FMOTT in my old Brigham rusticated apple. Got my word count for NaNoWriMo for the day done a little early, so I have time for a bowl before bed. Simon- classicgeek

October, 2011 - What are you Smoking? II
First bowl of McClelland 221B Arcadia, courtesy of a gifted tin from cortezattic. Made the maiden run in my meerschaum Canadian to try to appreciate the tobacco on its own. Very reminiscent of FMOTT in color and tin note. The cut is a ribbon, compared to the coarser Froggy. Was easy to light and...- classicgeek

Teaching Music
They say getting a job doing something you love is something everyone should aspire to. What's the word on getting a job doing almost something that you love? Musician teaching music: on the plus side, you get to practice the fundamentals over and over. On the minus side, you might snap when...- classicgeek

Not to bad. (At least for a rookie)
Glad you found a combination that works! Funny how that happens when you've got nothing to lose and everything to gain. Simon- classicgeek

First Time Latakia Experience
Technically, there is a bit of Latakia in Plumcake, so that was my first experience. But it was only my second tobacco ever, and I can't say I noticed. Wasn't until I tried FMOTT that I really knew what I was smoking. I agree with the savory vs. sweet idea. Most of my blends are lighter and/or...- classicgeek

First Smoke From A Cob.Oh And I Got Some New Baccy Too
Someday I'll have to give a cob a try. No place around here to get one; the B & M's have briar and meerschaum, but only rinkydink cobs that are not meant for more than a sample. I like the Diplomat shape. I can't imaging packing and lighting the MacArthur... 8O Simon- classicgeek

Preparing D&D Game
LOL I played when I was in Junior High, and then got to play a bit about six or seven years ago when a co-worker of mine had a group he played with. D&D and Magic: The Gathering. Just recently I picked up the "red box" as my daughter is almost old enough to play now, and my wife showed an...- classicgeek
