My daughter was mean to me!
It's funny. My 2 year old son (see the avatar) has a crazy fascination with my pipes, while my wife absolutely hates them. She's friends with some of the wives of my smoking buddies and they gather strength and solidarity in their stories of denying us lovin' on the pipe smoking days.- mattia76

How many pipes
I got up to 25 pipes or so, and it actually started causing me stress: "Which pipe is best for X tobacco?" "What if I don't smoke this pipe enough now? It cost so much, I need to be smoking it more often" etc. I had to whittle it down just to settle my head. Now I've settled to a dirty...- mattia76

Tried Dunhill..
I for one can't get into 965. I know that's sacrilege, but I've tried more than 5 times and it just doesn't do it for me. I've got a 4-5 year old tin of the London Mixture aging for a cold winter's day some time though. Haven't tried it yet either. To tell the truth, my favorite Dunhill mix...- mattia76

Does anyone have an experience with Savinelli's repair service?
You definitely don't want to mess with the Savinelli U.S.A. side of the business. They are no help at all with anything. I asked them a simple question about the dating of their pipes once (the transition from a 4# system to a 3# system and they basically told me I was crazy. I had to talk...- mattia76

pipe clubs
Yeah, I've found that there are a few "collectors" at my pipe club who love to geek out with each other over pipes. But most of the guys who come just like to smoke a pipe, drink some beer, and hang out. They aarent in it for in depth pipe discussions.- mattia76

Middle Earth Pipeweed Series from Just For Him?
Try Morning Coffee from Just For Him for an aromatic that's better than most. Does the Shortcut to Mushrooms really taste like mushrooms? Because, I'm not a fan of mushrooms, but everyone says it's great.- mattia76

Do Expensive Pipes Really Smoke Better?
Doc Brown of Springfield, MO once took a look at my newly purchased Peterson 306 System pipe and said to me, "Now see here...all that glitters is not gold when it comes to these new pipes." When I asked what he meant, he explained that a new pipe will always take a while to be a great smoker... -
