    Ford Announces the Next Model T

    Great minds think alike... What you said is almost exactly what I was going to post. I don't own a Tesla but I have 2 sons who do (a model 3 and a Cybertruck) and both drive a lot of miles for their work. They say they're saving a fortune of fuel cost. puffy

    Twigs and Stems: Do You All Care?

    Hell no! Break them up and pack em with the rest of the tobacco. If that doesn't work for you send them to me and I'll smoke em, no problem. puffy

    Smoking Sessions - Splitting up a bowl

    Quite often in the morning I finish off a half smoked bowl from the night before. No problem. puffy

    How much do you cellar?

    I doubt if the pipe is killing him. This character has all kinds of problems, both physical and mental. nnnn

    How much do you cellar?

    Some people are like that. They might not care about something they own, but as soon as someone else shows they would like to have it, the item becomes very precious to them. It's kind of a spin-off of the "positional good". puffy

    How much do you cellar?

    I hope we don't see you on the evening news with your neighbors saying you were a quiet person and they are as surprise as anyone..... puffy

    How much do you cellar?

    Some people just don't know their own mind! I heard back from the guy and we agreed on a price and then two minutes later he says he wants to wait a while and be sure the pipe is actually part of his problem. Oh, well. I'll bet it won't be long before I hear from him again. The saga...

    How much do you cellar?

    Just for fun you can join me as I count my eggs before they hatch! Looks like my cellar may grow some in the next day or two. I just got an email from a local pipe guy I know who says he is going to quit smoking because of health problems. He offered me 180 pouches of Half and Half plus some...

    Did You Lose Your Pipe ?

    Let me know what kind of pipe it is and I'll tell you if I lost it.... puffy

    What's For Dinner?

    Update: I know you all find this riveting, so... we made the gumbo again and this time when I looked at the 3 lb. bag of shrimp we got from Sam's, I noticed it said "product of India". Surprising, as you can catch all the good shrimp you want just a few miles from here. I figure now, with...

    SEMOIS?!? WTF!!

    Surprise !!! puffy

    Guess the grade of these pipes...

    The reason why blasts and textured is less expensive that smooths is because most (myself excepted) fanciers of high end pipes value, and are willing to pay for nice grain. Texturing or blasting a piece of briar without good grain is simply a way of salvaging an otherwise good block. Remember...

    Guess the grade of these pipes...

    You're right. I misread it. I think it's time for new specs. It's "Nording" so I'm afraid my opinion stands. From what I can tell from other pipe guys and a couple of trips to Demark where I visited several makers and from smoking some, the Danes don't cure their briar, so you end up smoking...

    Vacuum packing tins

    I'm sure your response is something clever, but I'll be damned if I can figure it out. :cry:

    How much do you cellar?

    I understand. I myself, smoke a pipe once every few minutes at best. puffy

    Guess the grade of these pipes...

    As soon as I saw "Norway" I knew I would not want it. puffy

    How much do you cellar?

    I figure I have about a 5 year supply, but with the new tariffs, it looks like the prices will be going up, so I'm always on the look out for a "deal" to increase my stash. puffy

    Vacuum packing tins

    I must have about 200 cans of tobacco with the screw off lids (like Peterson blends) and I've got quite a few rectangular tins with pry off lids. So far I haven't opened any where the tobacco has dried out. If you hear a little "poof" when you open it you can be sure your ok. puffy

    Things I Found Thrifting

    No wonder there is so much used clothes at garage sales. (We usually pass it by if it looks like that's what they're mainly selling.) Americans, mainly women, simply spend too much on unneeded clothing. Case in point: In about the last year my wife has attended 4 weddings. In each case she...
