Your Best Baccy W/ Room Note
I second the Frog Morton suggestion. Also: McClelland's Virginia Woods is something non-smokers seem to enjoy. It's a combination of several VAs and smells like cookies baking. While it is an aromatic, it is not like 1Q, IMO. There is a rather nice flavor in this blend.- jbbaldwin

Hogans Heroes
Not to hijack this thread, but here's a piece of trivia: Col. Klink was played by Werner Klemperer. Not sure if he was a pipe smoker or not, but is father was Otto Klemperer, a noted orchestra conductor who was a pipe smoker. Poor Otto fell asleep smoking in bed in a hotel one night and started...- jbbaldwin

Bang for Your Buck
I second the PS LNF, etc. If you like the VAs, Newminster slices go for $35/lb and they're wonderful.- jbbaldwin

What Are You Smoking? April 2013
Erinmore (for the first time) in a cob. Pretty good so far... The tin is baking at 190 degrees, per Bradley's recommendation - it'll be interesting, no doubt.- jbbaldwin

Esoterica Penzance
I love Penzance when I can get it. Having said that, I wouldn't pay that much for a bag. I'm also not sure it improves with age, anyway.- jbbaldwin

A Good Starter Plug
PPP is not flavored. There is certainly no Lakeland essence there. It's pretty strong in both flavor and nicotine. For me, it doesn't change a lot through the bowl and tastes pretty much the same at the beginning as at the end of the smoke. I like it, and recommend slicing and cube-cutting. My...- jbbaldwin

Rest in Peace George Jones
He was my dad's favorite, so I was raised on a steady diet of his music, especially the early stuff with photos of him with a crew cut on the record jacket. He had a sense of humor, too. He is on an album as a guest with Run C&W doing some Motown covers, plus this...- jbbaldwin

Stay With the Stinger?
I have one of those Kaywoodies - the stinger is threaded to fit the shank. I'm glad it wasn't my first pipe, and I'm glad it's not my only pipe, but, with a properly prepared flake, it's a nice smoker if I don't get in a hurry.- jbbaldwin

TAD Order Arrived - Huzzah, &c.
Right. I'd edit that if I could. I'm looking forward to it. I enjoy the florals in the Lakeland blends and have high hopes for this to be a tropical alternative. Cheers- jbbaldwin

Optical Illusion Photos
I can't see it, but I have very poor depth-perception. Killed my chances at a baseball career. :) An aside: I went to the DMV today to get my driver's license renewed and had to take the eye-test. I read the first two columns but couldn't see the third. And: I passed. Look out for me, I...- jbbaldwin

Oh - can you bake an opened tin? I always thought they had to be sealed. I'll certainly try it.- jbbaldwin

TAD Order Arrived - Huzzah, &c.
Why, thank you. I've never done one of these posts and it felt like bragging. I do like to see what others are smoking, too, though. May I say: after the briefest of drying times, I'm trying the Newminster. I believe it was Harris who was singing the praises of the round slices. He was right...- jbbaldwin

TAD Order Arrived - Huzzah, &c.
Finally, after actual whole days of waiting. I placed my order Monday, April 22, late in the evening, so it was processed Tuesday. The order arrived today, April 25. Free shipping from South Carolina (smokingpipes.com) to northern Virginia. I love those guys. I don't know why I'm posting...- jbbaldwin
