    The Pipe Smoker's Ephemeris

    Jimbo is right about this collection of Tom Dunn's TPSE. I had the opportunity to read a number of issues of this publication a few years ago. You have a treasure indeed!

    Clumsy

    Glad that the injury is not worse... I can also claim to have done a few unscheduled maneuvers before. Glad that the Pipe is OK too. One injury is more than enough, without adding loss to it as well.
