Is This a Legit Dunhill?
Ya know... there's a lot quicker way. This little item from the late 19th Century is for a "Tobacco Smoke Enema". The procedure was used to treat gut pain, and attempts were often made to resuscitate victims of near drowning. (Drowning in Scotch I'm sure). To physicians of the time, the... -

MM Legend Burn Out
I've had some of my cobs for close to 40 years... Most of them will last a life time, but you do get a lemon once in a while. When I get new ones, I usually get 5 to 10 per order and break them in one at a time. You get a good feel as to how good it'll be in quick order.- topd

Big Pipes Less Used?
For me, it depends on what I'm doing. On the lake or in the woods I'll take a couple size 4 pipes, or a tall cob. The same for just piddling around the yard. In my Lazy Chair it'll be a large brier or meerschaum. Like cigrmaster, I always fill to the rim and smoke to the bottom. I seldom have... -

Cleaning The Rim Of Your Pipe Bowl
I've just about always had the habit of 'doing little circles' on the thigh of my jeans when I finish my smoke in a brier. Keeps the rim mostly clean and shinny, lengthening the time between proper rim cleaning. But stem polish is a great idea.- topd

I have no idea why I've been avoiding coming here.... Things going on in the family I guess. My life has always been blessed and perfect. I seldom get a wrench thrown in the cogs... but have recently. I have to apologize for not being around as I was before.... Things are better now. TopD- topd

Holy Crap! Anyone Seen This Yet?!
I wouldn't stand as close as the folks that taped it! It's gotta be going into an underground stream, and will take anything in it's path. Large chunks of ice didn't plug it, and a person would be gone in an instant! The sink hole under the house that took a man from his bed in Florida come to...- topd
