    Vodka As a Cleanser

    I drink vodka regularly so it is my cleaning fluid of choice. I pour some into a tall double shot glass to dip my pipe cleaners in so as to avoid dropping a pipe cleaner into a full bottle.

    Just started Questions

    1. Taste: As you perfect your packing technique and your pace of smoking the flavors will become more evident. Also it takes awhile for your palate to become "trained" to pick up the nuances of flavors. I'm a year in and still finding ways to improve my experience. Sometimes it is helpful to...

    Pipe filters

    I throw the filters away as soon as my cobs arrive. I prefer the open draw.

    Beginner Essentials

    Congrats and welcome to the forum. Zito covered the basics to get started. I recommend have something to drink while smoking such as tea or lemonade. Go slow, don't worry about it going out and relighting. May take several bowls before you start noticing some of the flavors as your palate...

    Very wet 1Q

    My thoughts were based on humid locations. Here it was 96F and a dew point in the 70s so condensation is a major issue. If your in a location of high heat but low humidity I can see where lordofthepiperings is coming from.

    That "Oh Crap" Moment After Surgery!

    Thanks for the healing thoughts. I'm honest with my doc so he knew I smoked a pipe and he just recommended to smoke only 1-2 times a day for the first couple of weeks. So this is an interesting challenge for me since I was smoking on average 4-8 times a day. I definitely smoke slow and savor...

    Very wet 1Q

    So you took 65 degree 1-Q outside to 85 degree temps? Sounds like the colder 1-Q caused the warmer air to condense moisture onto it. Like when you take a cold beer out of the fridge and it gets condensation you just did that with your tobacco!

    That "Oh Crap" Moment After Surgery!

    Went in bright and early Thursday for my hernia surgery. Pre-op went great and the doc said I'd be up by 10 am after the surgery. As I slowly came to after the surgery I looked at the clock which was at 2:00 pm. First thought: Oh Crap do I still have my nuts! I must have been a dog in a...

    It's 3:30am & I Disapprove

    Must be the season for surgery, I go in tomorrow to get my hernia fixed. By Friday I'll look 20 years younger and 100 pounds lighter. That's my story and I'm sticking to it.

    The fine white ash myth

    Fire and rescue were called to a local neighborhood yesterday due to white smoke pouring out of a house. It was discovered that the occupant was smoking while watching Olympic volleyball.

    Does The FDA Create Opportunity For Creativeness?

    Thanks Nate; I'm now wiping coffee off my computer screen. By the way snorting coffee is an effective way to get caffeine; messy but effective.
