    R.I.P. George Romero

    Tinderbox Reserve 1928 - Is there anything even close to it?

    I was just at my Tinderbox and they had an open tin of 1928. It had the usual "ketchup" smell of McClelland virginias and seemed like a wonderful concoction. If I hadn't been so poor I would have bought one. In addition to the impeccable advice you have already received, I can only add to stock...

    The Quality of the Briar

    Coprolite pipes look and taste like shit. You'll pay out the ass, and no matter the engineering, they'll smoke like a turd. Crappy idea for a pipe. Had to get that out of my system.

    Shellac shellac and more shellac

    Yes, acetone/nail polish remover does the trick. I never sand off a finish, it interferes with the "lines". Rinse/clean with water afterward. You don't want it to settle in. It takes some dye with it, so be forewarned.

    I thought only the captain had to go down with his ship

    I'd grab a cob and some inexpensive tobacco.

    History of Samuel Gawith Squadron Leader

    Synchronicity is weird. I just bought my first ever tin of Squadron Leader a few hours ago. I agree it is a tangy mild English and very smooth. Good stuff !! :-)

    What Is the One Thing That You Haven't Had in a Very Long Time?

    EMMYS Anyone?

    The shows that really hit me are Twin Peaks: The Return (of course) and Legion. In Twin Peaks, Kyle Maclachlan's character Dale Cooper so far has diminished dialogue, so body language is primary and he kills with it. Great acting and very well written and Directed by Mark Frost and David Lynch...

    What Books Are We All Reading?

    Jay, if you are enjoying the Peter Gilliver work, I'd highly recommend; "The Surgeon of Crowthorne: A Tale of Murder, Madness and the Love of Words" by Simon Winchester. It was released in the U.S. and Canada as "The Professor and the Madman: A Tale of Murder, Insanity, and the Making of the...

    Got a question about my new pipe

    I believe the brass piece prevents the buildup of static electricity so as not to spark and cause fire. :wink: Or, it is to catch spit like in a trumpet or other such horn. Is that pipe an E flat?

    Those last few puffs

    Nice to "meet" you 4dot. I'm pretty good about keeping ash from getting in the way of my smoking. The only times I notice the dottle in the bottom of the bowl really shining in flavor is with predominantly Virginia blends and some Burleys. Most frequently, Sam Gawith Full Virginia Flake and...

    Grey Hair Is Trendy

    Luckily, Captain, that is a self-correcting problem. I've had grey hair since I was 19. :roll:
