    Which Languages Can You Speak?

    Fluent in German. English, I wouldn't say was my "second" language per se, I learned them together as a result of a German mother and an American father stationed in Germany and growing up there. But I spoke German far more than I did English well into my teens and continue to do so whenever...

    Heavy Metal(the music genre)

    Nice!! Abigail is a classic. I will admit, King Diamond is definitely an "acquired" taste, but once you "get it" there's no going back. That's awesome they played the complete Abigail album, his albums are pretty damn cool in that they tell a complete story from the first song to the last, so...

    Heavy Metal(the music genre)

    Hey Baron, when I first joined here and saw your screen name I thought of King Diamond. There's a song called "The Cross of Baron Samedi" on his "Voodoo" album. :D

    Heavy Metal(the music genre)

    Metal fan since 1984. I was 9 and when I heard Motley Crue's "Shout at the Devil" for the first time I was blown away. It progressed from there, all the bands you listed and more. I've seen Slayer live twice, once in '95 and again in 2006. I got into some of the heavier bands, Deicide was a...

    DAMN UPS!!!!

    Like I said in another thread, full disclosure I work for UPS. Now I know many of you might think I only defend UPS because I work there. I swear to you thats not the case. I have no particular loyalty to UPS and have only been there for a little over a year and half. Anyway, slightly off...

    Sir Walter Raleigh. Something wrong with it?

    Well, I went ahead and smoked a bowl as is. It didnt taste too bad, a bit like Prince Albert but not quite as good a bit less sweet perhaps and more "cigarette" tasting. Being dry as a bone it lit easily and didn't need a relight the entire bowl which smoked all the way to the bottom. I was...

    Sir Walter Raleigh. Something wrong with it?

    Hi all, Just picked up a pouch of Sir Walter Raleigh at the grocery store (I'm trying to smoke each of the OTC blends just for fun). After getting home and tearing off the cellophane wrapper I realized the tobacco inside was making this crunchy sound. Like a pouch of pebbles. Upon opening it I...

    Prince Phililps in Denver

    I stopped in there about a month ago. Only the old guy and what appeared to be a friend of his were there. They were both in back smoking cigars. The old man was pleasant and after asking about certain tins he said I could pop back behind the counter and look for/ help myself and ended up buying...

    What's the Deal Here?

    I agree with Nathaniel and Misterrogers. Now let me add my rambling two-cents. First let me say that if one wishes to smoke weed, then by all means do it. I couldn't care less and even support the legalization of it. Having said that, I think this whole "medical marijuana" thing is a joke. Yes...

    List Your Other Hobbies / Interests

    In addition to pipes I am an avid shooter and gun collector. Actually you could say that my passion for pipes is exceeded only by my passion for guns. Also, like Paul I too am an avid WWII buff.

    A BS Texas Bill completer with BS statistics

    I hear ya Baron! Here in Colorado we went through the same thing, the result being a complete statewide ban on smoking in all public places that went into effect in July of 2006. :cry: I wrote about this in a previous post here, but Colorado legislatures were extra sneaky. They too used that...
