    Pipe Smoking, Relationships, and Compromise

    Let me guess. You live in the basement of your mother's house and don't have any friends. ;)

    Broken Pipe Father Al Grosskopf

    I met Father Al in S.F. back in the 80s. He invited me up to his apartment at the university and we had a nice visit discussing and showing off our pipes. He was a good guy. :cry:

    Exhaust Fan For New Smoking Room?

    Depends on you set up... When I built my smoking room I bought the quietest bathroom exhaust fan I could find. To me, the noise was a big factor. I didn't want to knock a hole in the outer brick wall so I rigged it to shoot the smoky air into the attic above our garage which is very well...

    Castello’s Used Briar vs Any Old Estate Briar

    Personally, I like to get plenty of air and smoke when I suck. I'm thinking of having my Castellos super charged.... puffy

    Castello’s Used Briar vs Any Old Estate Briar

    For what it's worth... I've been smoking Castello pipes for over 60 years and haven't come across a bad one yet. Properly treated a Castello will give enjoyment for a lifetime. puffy

    I'm Apologizing Now.

    You ain't the only one.... Our frig crapped out 2 days ago and I've been in a mood ever since. It didn't help when the repair guy said it couldn't be fixed and it really got bad when the wife had to buy the $2,500 model instead of the $1,500 one I liked. They'll deliver the new one...

    Show Us Your Pipe Cleaner Holder/Dispencer

    I keep my pipe cleaners handy by my computer. They are in a Mettlach crockery goblet made in 1885. Normally I wouldn't use an antique but this one has a crack so I risk it. I downloaded the image, but mine is similar. puffy

    Number Of Traditional Pipe Smokers In US, Canada and Europe

    I think the reason you see more pipe smokers overseas than here is simple. Most other countries are more tolerant of public pipe smoking than the U.S.. As for Latin America, it's a cultural thing. They are more into cigars and cigarettes. puffy

    Tinbids Observations

    I know a pipe smoker who has several times sold me unopened tins of tobacco at great prices. We're not talking about one or two of the same blend, but sometimes 10 or 20 cans, all alike. Can anyone explain to me why someone would buy that much of a blend just to try? Seems like buying one...

    “The Rake” On YouTube: Recent Tour Of The Dunhill White Spot Factory in London

    Congratulations, I would like to shake your hand. I believe yours is the longest post I've ever read where I disagreed with almost everything you said. puffy

    Show Off Your Castello Pipes Here!

    No wonder these cost so much. The hours of labor it must take to carve one has to be very high. I guess I'm lucky, although I appreciate the workmanship, they are not my style. puffy

    “The Rake” On YouTube: Recent Tour Of The Dunhill White Spot Factory in London

    I don't know who owns it but from the look of it I wouldn't be surprised if it ends up on display in the White House. puffy
