    Good Friday

    I spent part of Good Friday praying for rain. Today, being Easter Sunday I spent the afternoon eating a feast and watching it rain. And congrats, Bowhatchie on that turkey, I bagged a nice big hen the other day with the right front headlight of my F-150. Headlight lens....$39 Turn signal lens...

    March 2011 - What are you smoking?

    Hobie1dog; Does my heart good. :mrgreen: Peterson's University Flake in a sandblasted Sasienni. One light so far, just sippin' away for almost an hour! Great tobacco/pipe combo!

    Firearms do not cause death any more than this keyboard causes argumentative posts.

    Torque

    Regarding the differences of torque and horsepower, try this relationship. It's Saturday afternoon and you and your wife are carrying in the groceries. You both carry the sacks close to your bodies because you know that if you hold them out at arm’s length, they’ll be too heavy to carry. This...

    Unable to Taste Flavour

    Don't feel bad,...I have a tough time picking out many of the scents that others find easily. :-) I'm doing good to pick out the main scent,.....much less all the other little whisps and hints of flavors that some claim are there. To me, pipe tobacco is much like wine,.....after wasting many...

    How To Beat A Dead Dog: Anti-Smoking Activism in Modern America

    You will NOT be hired on any Fire Department if you smoke. Period. Take it to court if you like, you will loose. It's an insurance coverage thing. We smoke pipes, pipe smoking is one thing,.....but cigarette smoking is something completely different. No offense guys,...I'm old and I grew up in...

    Torque

    Torque and horsepower are two different things and are not related. They are units of measure. A unit used in comparison of temperature is "degrees". A unit used to compare lengths, stop it, is "feet". A unit used to compare twisting motion is torque. A unit used to compare power is...

    Maryland Bans Internet Sales of Pipe Tobacco and all OTP

    Uhhh,.....forgive me if I'm not understanding these new laws….. correct my if I'm wrong, but it appears, to me anyhow, that this is a "revenue" issue,..not a non-smoking or anti-smoking, or even a pro-"communism" issue. If I’m reading the links correctly,…..all the state wants is revenue...

    Maryland Bans Internet Sales of Pipe Tobacco and all OTP

    Coming soon to a neighborhood near you. We were all laughing about not paying our "use taxes" not more than a few threads ago,....what do you expect? They want,...and they are going to get; your money. One way or the other.

    Best Burley?

    It's not bad at all, at least in my opinion, they sprinkle it with a few liqueurs. It's not as cased as 1-Q or most any of the drug-store blends that I've tried, but it's got a nice aromatic quality to it, kinda like Sir Walter Raleigh with a 20% mix of another very subtle aromatic blend. Here's...

    Bad luck or bad product

    In your defence, I just compared my Savinelli Churchwarden stem to every single one of my other pipes,...and it is by far; the smallest diameter, and as far as I could tell, the thinnest walled stem tenon of my collection. Tough break. The mortise/tenon fit of mine is not too tight,....but it's...

    What Did You do Today?

    Went to the body-shop and picked up my wife's not-so-new-anymore Honda. They managed to get the $5,000 imprint of a white-tailed deer out of it. Today's her birthday,....so I managed dinner reservations at the best restaurant in this part of the country this evening. :lol: Pretty expensive...
