    No Wonder the Aliens are Content to Watch Instead of Invade

    Back in the 80s in Lagos, Nigeria, a thief grabbed something from someone on the street and ran. A crown followed him to an alley which turned out to be a dead end. They could not find the thief but there was a goat in the alley. Being intelligent and educated people they arrested the goat...

    Attack Of The Pissed Off Wasps

    Interesting! Unfortunately I don't want to spend lots of hours and money painting a 28'x14' roof to find out. Besides, I kind of like killing the little bastards. :LOL:

    Attack Of The Pissed Off Wasps

    I've been stung by quite a few little sink-nastys over the years and in my opinion the Yellow Jacket is the worst. It even rivals a scorpion. Their sting hurts all the way to the bone! Kill em all! :LOL:

    Strange Object In The Sky

    I thought UFOs were a joke too, until 1970 when I was in the USAF and saw one hovering over our base, then shoot straight up faster than a bullet. puffy

    Attack Of The Pissed Off Wasps

    We have a summer problem with Yellow Jackets wanting to make nests on the underside of our patio roof. I have a small garden sprayer that I keep just for them. A shot of gasoline, or any petroleum distallate, will kill them. Here's a couple of tips: Hit them after dark when they are all on...

    Toughest Pipe Smoking SOB in Movies.

    Not the stain... the shellac. Look it up. p.s. If you want to touch up a black pipe's finish, ink from the permanent marker or fountain pen ink can work well. puffy

    Take a smooth pipe without flaws but no nice grain. Stain with red covered by black alcohol based stains, give it a nice coating of button shellac, buff to high polish, and you have a Perla Nera. puffy

    Pack Rat Solution, YMMV

    hahau Ha! I looked at this threat because I thought it was going to be about tobacco hoarders. cray

    Tobacco type vs pipe type, a beginner question

    I don't know about "consensus", but I find that the high grade Italian makes smoke English best. Of course, if you only have one pipe and can't rest it very much, I find a meerschaum is hard to beat. puffy

    Filter or Non-filter Pipes? Confused.

    It's been a couple of year since I bought any. Try this.... puffy https://www.google.com/search?q=3%2F16x1%2F8+balsa&rlz=1C1GCEA_enUS843US843&oq=3%2F16x1%2F8+balsa&gs_lcrp=EgZjaHJvbWUyBggAEEUYOdIBCjE1OTk3ajBqMTWoAgiwAgE&sourceid=chrome&ie=UTF-8

    I forgot to mention, the grain is just as nice all the way around as what you see.... puffy

    Samuel Gawith Drop is on at SmokingPipes

    Most people use the word "hoard" like it's a bad thing. I'm not sure, but I would guess I have enough tobacco "hoarded" to last me at least 5 years at my present rate. I don't consider it hoarding, but rather a hedge against inflation and tariffs. Simply a good investment. puffy

    If you will pardon my towering immodesty.... It kind of reminds me of this pipe I made. Although, I think my bowl shape is more elegant. puffy

    Filter or Non-filter Pipes? Confused.

    In case you missed it this is from a previous post. I have several Savinelli filter pipes I use to smoke an occasional aromatic. Here's how to save money on the filters. Instead of buying the actual filters. I go on ebay and buy a pack of balsa wood rods in the right size (3/16x1/8") and cut...
