    To Rub Or Not To Rub

    Rub or "fold and stuff" both work well for me. However, basically, I am a pack and burn kind of guy. Therefore, when I created Cornell and Diehl's "Captain Bob's Pot-O-Gold Mixture" it was a "pack-and-burn" Mixture just for Virginia Lovers. It does taste like a Flake, but in a Traditional...

    Air Purifiers

    I have owned the Dynamic CT500 Air Cleaner for five years with absolutely excellent results. I recommend it. Visit their site here: http://www.my-air-purifier.com/site/678219/product/CT500 The price is $997.00 USD. It is worth the investment. It is quiet. My wife can sit next to me on a...

    Chocolate Aromatic

    I am not trying to necessarily plug my own C&D Blends. But, I will answer your question. Cornell and Diehl's "Captain Bob's Ship's Mate Blend" is topped with chocolate. But, you must order it direct from www.CornellandDiehl.com by a phone call to them. Click to enlarge: You can order it...

    I would just play it safe and put your pipes, tobacco and sharps in your checked luggage. That's what I do. Even on my own plane! __________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

    Uhle's Blends - Well, Burley

    My favorite Uhle's Blend is Bishop's Move. But, all of Uhle's Blends are excellent in my opinion. It is simply a matter of taste. They have what will please you! The problem is the 71% excise tax for Wisconsin Residents. It is a deterent. I am thankful that I stocked up on my favorite...

    Tobacco Ghosting in Pipes

    I always recommend dedicating specific pipes to specific blends (or very similar blends). My experience in doing this has rewarded me greatly. I generally have no less than five blends in rotation and have about seven pipes didicated to each specific (or very similar) blend. I have a total of...

    I Am Tired of the Show Off Threads

    Going on 18 years with my wife, Cathy. I would not trade a moment of it for any other woman! It looks like Kevin is "searching" and maybe "finding"! Good luck to Kevin. Remember, Kevin, when "searching" for a car you may be attracted by the "color" or what you think your friends would...

    Good Tobacco

    I suggest that you order tobacco samplers from McClelands or Cornell and Diehl. You can find "samplers" of their blends at www.Pipesandcigars.com. __________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

    What Do You Drink While Smoking?

    Frankly, I smoke about five different blends in five different pipes each day. At 5:30 PM, I continue to smoke more pipes and blends while I enjoy my cocktail hour with a Wskey Manhatten. This does not create any problem for me...

    Tobacco Rotation

    drcarlo, I have no prolem with that. Rarely, I must load a "day-pouch" and carrry one pipe. When I do, I still use a pipe cleaner after every smoke (when possibble) and then I give that pipe a good rest for several days depending on if I smoked it more than twice. I only use dedicated pipes...

    From Tin to Mason Jar?

    Repeated opening of an air-tight tobacco container lets in fresh air. The more open space in the container, the more fresh air will come in to dry out your tobacco. For daily-use-air-tight containers, I suggest that if the tobacco feels too dry, use a small spray bottle of water and give two...
