PSA (long): New Smokers: You Do Not Need An Expensive Pipe
Of course it is! Then again, some are genuine estate pieces from someone who has passed and their heirs don’t know good from bad and just want to liquidate their collections. I like to pick up a mixed lot and sort through them, saving the worthwhile ones, cleaning them up and adding them to my...- gatorlope

PSA (long): New Smokers: You Do Not Need An Expensive Pipe
Good info. Almost all of my briars are estate pipes, but what you call “classic” shapes I view as redundancies on old forms, so I am not inclined to spend retail prices for them, although I do use the ones that turn out to be good smokers, which also include Peterson and Calabresi as well as...- gatorlope

Smoking Inside the House
At home, the outdoor experience is enhanced by a breezy spot in the shade and having a little target practice with any lizards that are so unwise as to get within spitting range! ?- gatorlope

First Pipe Club Meeting
I’ve been wondering if there was anyplace to go in the South Florida area where I could chat with other pipe smokers face to face. As much as I enjoy these forums, they are no substitute for the pleasure of being able to discuss and compare pipes and tobaccos with someone while you are...- gatorlope

Latest Pipes & Cigars Debacle
Jury’s out. I’ve had just enough confusion with them to plan on making any further orders directly with their customer service where they can confirm what they have in stock and whether the conditions for any premiums they offer are being met.- gatorlope

Pipe Widows
My wife surprised me yesterday. She said my pipe smelled nice and asked me what I was smoking! She ALWAYS complains about the smell! So I ratcheted my jaw up off the floor and told her “Queen Anne’s Revenge.”- gatorlope

For The Pipe Smoker Who Really Loved The Movie "Aliens"...

US Customs Holding Up Pipes
I guess we need to be protected from foreign pipes, then. Domestic pipe sellers and manufacturers might not be affected and even if they were, I wouldn’t be surprised to find out that we have more pipes than guns in this country. If they’re really concerned, maybe some communities will offer...- gatorlope

How are you supposed to know when you’re ordering? I did a search on the C&D site for “International Sales” and came up with a big blank!- gatorlope

Sale Only Allowed in the United States
I recently took advantage of the discount price that was offered on C&D blends, ordering enough that I also had the benefit of their free shipping. (About 15 tins) Now that I’ve received them, I see that all but three of them are labeled for US sale only. The 3 exceptions were Bayou Night...- gatorlope

What Does Your Scene Look Like?
Works, though- you reduce as you become a better shot, reuse when you do reloads and recycle when you turn them into tobacco tampers! She’d be proud of you!- gatorlope
