    People Who Back Into Parking Spaces...

    During my copper career I observed many drivers perceive the size of their vehicle incorrectly. Some think it is larger than it is and are unable to park in a normal space. Others think their vehicle is smaller than it is and insist on backing and filling, bumping cars front and rear, numerous...

    What Is the Future of Pipesmoking for Younger Generations?

    For many here who appear to define themselves by their pipe? Yes. And, for the folks engaged in the business, growers, processors, vendors, etc? Definitely! In the "grand scheme" of things? Not particularly.

    Are Pipe Brochures Valuable?

    Why? There are collectors for such. Certainly none of my business how people spend their discretionary funds.

    People Who Back Into Parking Spaces...

    Yes, for both angle and parallel parking. Later, as a copper, I was instructed to back in so as to provide for a safer, faster if required, exit.

    Safest way is backing in and such makes for a safer exit.

    New pipe break in

    I'd simply load it and enjoy. Or, you can go the route of some here and make the whole process as complecated as your personality desires. It's personal thing, do what gives an enjoyable experience.

    What Is the Future of Pipesmoking for Younger Generations?

    The above certainly isn't my style. Yet another unsupportable generalization. I'm sure some pipe smokers try to make the bowl last. Others? Probably just load, light and go about their business, not giving a care to length of time a bowl lasts. Pipe smokers are a varied lot.

    What Is the Future of Pipesmoking for Younger Generations?

    I've no idea, honestly. I do know that they will need money to keep smoking, tobacco will always be available I suspect. So, the younger generation needs to inflation proof themselves, maximize their value, their income. Prices will rise, that much I'm sure of. Availability of tobacco...

    Well Im Fat

    If one can't exert self-control, burn more calories than you take in, then some sort of "crutch" may be called for. Meds are easier than taking control of your in-take, upping your exercise some and so forth. Some folks just want to go through letting others be in control of their life while...

    I guess I have no hobbies as I have little to no leisure time. The driving force in my life these days is spent trying to improve my level of knowledge so, I guess, per the definition above, no leisure time equeals no hobbies.
