    Pipe Accident !

    Yeah,...that's the reason to not toss smoking material out the window of a moving vehicle. Kinda like; "Don't drink and drive,..........you might hit a bump and spill your drink." Sorry about the pipe. That does suck.

    Smoking in a heat wave

    Although I smoke indoors year 'round, I do on occasion enjoy a bowl outside. However,...there are many days here that are just too hot or too cold to enjoy,....smoking or not. This damned heat wave is killing me! I haven't done anything outside, my place is beginning to look like Hell! Are you...

    Peterson Molly Malone

    That Ebony Straight is a beautiful pipe. Too bad I'm not willing to pay that much. :? Kind of a sad legend. Beautiful song when done correctly, and who other than Paddy Reilly to do it; Must have been one of Ronnie Drew's last appearances. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pXKLkLcdtjI

    What are You Reading?

    Following up on a book recommendation by Clanobucklin, I'm just finishing up a Hugh B. Cave collection entitled Long Live the Dead. This guy can write some pulp fiction!! One of the inventors of the genre actually. Since reading two of his short detective stories published in the 1930's in "The...

    Things to do after your pipe fall inside a toilet

    If one of mine ever takes a dunk in a beer-joint sh*%ter...it's a gone motor-scooter! 8O I could never again put the stem in my mouth without thinking about where it'd been.

    Kilted men?

    Hobie buddy,....of all of the women I ever played with, zero of them claimed to go "regimental"....they all unfortunately wore shorts, sorry. :D On a side note, a kilt is a man's military garment...and unless in a band and wearing it as a uniform, women don't wear them.

    Kilted men?

    I've worn a kilt for years. As a pipe band drummer...not as any kind of "tourist". Dallas Scottish Festival Stone Mountain Georgia They're warm in the winter and cool in the summer. And very expensive. The women love 'em! And anyone wearing anything under a real kilt, (not one of those...

    No tobacco withdrawal for pipe smokers?

    As an ex-cigarette smoker, (15 years) as well as an ex-Copenhagen dipper, (15 years),.....going without either for any length of time is pure hell. Not picking up a pipe for a few days or even a week has NO effect on me at all...none.....it doesn't even cross my mind.

    Wicked oxidized shanks!! Any tips on fixing?

    If it's the stems and they appear to be turning olive drab, this is not oxidation,...I know that's what they call it, but it's not. When rubber is vulcanized, sulfur is used in the process....over time the sulfur begins to be released due to a weak chemical bond. The yellow color is that...

    Public Pipe Smoking

    Started smoking in public back in the 70's when I was in my 20's,.....I felt like a pretentious wanna-be for the longest time....but it didn't stop me. I'm now 57 and damned proud to smoke in front of everyone. Kind of an "in your face" thing!
