    Other Seattle Pipe Club Blends

    Hi hi! I haven't made it up to an SPC meeting in a year. I live near Portland now and have had Wednesday night classes the whole school year here at WSU. I have seen a whole slew of tobacco blends released by the SPC. The first one, Omak, I bought up blind and was not disappointed. It has...

    Wife's Dog Crossed the Rainbow Bridge

    My wife had a terrier that she just loved to death. Rebuilt its shoulders loved. Cared for it after it went blind loved. She was a sweet girl. She was put down yesterday due to cancer. So I took her out today to downtown Portland to Powell's books and out to eat after to take her mind off it...

    I Need to Blog Less After Drinking...

    So. I have to blog for one of my classes. I was feeling a bit down because I had to tutor a kid today who is a smart kid. He is a hyper little shit, but just a good kid. 7th grade, probably functioning in the middle of the 4th grade, academically. This sort of thing breaks my heart and makes me...

    IPSD PAD

    I couldn't help it. I am trying to cut back on the PAD, but to no avail. An Irish Free State Pete from Pipestud and just as cool, An Amber stemmed Kaywoodie Meer. Happiness! The Pete is amazingly clean and the Kaywoodie should clean up no problem.

    Sick, Tired, and Pissed

    So I have two very time intensive classes this term (4 in total). I have 3 essays due in the next 24 hours and about 300 pages to read. So I felt it the perfect time to get a debilitating fever/head cold. I can't really even focus on the readings, let alone write coherently. But enough of that...

    RIP Alan Thicke

    2016 cannot end soon enough. It has been like the dude on a pale horse from start to finish for our entertainers. Best known as Jason Seaver in "Growing Pains", he died at age 69 playing hockey with his son. He went out like a boss. RIP

    eBay Dunhill: Is it real?

    Hi hi, Just cruising Ebay and I came across a Dunhill shape I have never seen before. The shape is one thing, but all the stamping is on TOP of the shank. Full listing HERE Have any of you seen a Dunhill like this?

    How did I do? I Couldn't Help Myself.

    I am procrastinating on my final paper for English and I came accross this pipe: EBAY Here I put in a 35 Euro bid. I know, I know. I have a sickness. But I won! Is this one of the "Good old 999's?" Doesn't really matter, for the price, as it is handsome either way. So how did I do?

    Ooooooold Ben Wades

    Ben Wades have been around since the 1860's. Does anyone on here have any Ben Wade pipes from pre 1900?? I am curious to see how they are marked. Or does anyone know someone who does have one from before 1900? Thanks!

    My Oh My...

    I was (VERY) pleasantly surprised when the Seattle Seahawks beat the New England Patriots IN Foxborough tonight. Woo hoo! :clap: On top of that, it was a really good game with a lot of good football played and not a lot of bad calls by the refs.

    My Ancestry: An Adventure of Discovery!

    Hey hey. So has anyone else done the Ancestry.com thing? I was in the military so the government has my DNA. I wasn't too concerned about that aspect, and curiosity got the better of me. Is is super easy to do. Just sign up and they send a kit to your house. You spit in a container and return...

    Mail Call - From Ireland! (Pics)

    Last month, it was announced that Pipe Divan, an outlet of James Fox in Dublin was having a 20% off sale. This, coupled with a strong dollar and free shipping on purchases over $100 was too much to resist. I love the nondescript but oh-so-functional 03 shape and set out to get a bunch. I loaded...

    Advice on Charred Inner Bowl

    So I have avoided pipes that show burned spots in the bowl. I have been pretty fortunate, actually, given the amount of pipes I get off ebay. Until now. I got a Nording 19. It looks nice. I figure it will be a great smoker. The seller is a decent sort. I've bought from them in the past, but not...

    I Feel Better

    I was lurking on ebay. There were quite a few interesting pipes that sold today. I have to say, I lost out on a good few pipes. I sure made the seller happy though. There were a few that only had me and the bid that beat me on there, so raised the prices quite a bit on some. Hope that wasn't any...

    I am a Little Down

    I have no one to turn to at home for sympathy. You all understand the TAD. You respect that TAD affects each of us differently. There are times when I have TAD and I have, 1: No control, 2: CRAZY Taste. This leads me to my current sorrow. There was pipe that Steve was selling on Ebay today. I...

    Ebay Gouger: I Am Oddly Vexed

    So I was perusing the 'bay. I have in the past found a great deal of awesome aged tobacco at reasonable prices on there. I know it has gotten a lot more tricky trying to navigate the morass of rules on there, but I looked tonight anyway. Lo and behold, I came across this...

    MacBaren Highland

    Hello, I remember when MacBaren Highland was discontinued. I manged to get 1 of the */500 tins, 1 other tin, and 1lb cellared. Has it been reissued? I see it on sites still, like it may be there, but is out of stock. I was out of the loop. I searched on here for reissued stuff and highland...

    2000+ Posts and an Apology

    Hi All, I hit 2k posts and realized I didn't do an "I'm Back" post so I thought I would do that with an apology. You folks are always so awesome and I apologize for not giving more of a heads up that I was taking leave from the site. I also apologize for slinking in and posting without an update...

    HS Studio Pipes

    I did a quick search and turned up nothing but PS studio hits. Anyone have an HS Studio pipe? What model and do you like it? I know Marty Pulver sell them sometimes, but I don't know about levels of quality or price points or anything.
