    Two New "To Me" Peterson Draculas!

    I picked these Dracs up from Sparrowhawk earlier this week, I haven't smoked them yet, but I'm sure they'll make great burners! They are a "606" straight pot, and an "01" 3/4 bent pot. I already have a "606' St. Patrick's Day that is a fine smoker, so I'm sure this one will be as well" The...

    I Finally Found A Va/Per That I Like!

    Over the years I've tried to give va/pers a chance, but to no avail. Until now, the only blends with a detectable presence of Perique that I've enjoyed are Frog Morton On The Bayou and Dunhill Nightcap. In other words, blends that have more Latakia than Perique. Well, today I picked up a tin of...

    I Had To Add A New Shelf To The Cellar!

    My collection and cellar have grown substantially over the last year, and because of that I was running out of room in my cabinet very quickly! So I had to buy a new shelf for some of my tobacco! It opened my cabinet up some, plus it makes things easier to find. But I have a feeling that ill...

    Birthday Gift From The Wife!

    My wife gave me my birthday present today, a Peterson "86" Outdoor nosewarmer, 1X 50gr Frog Morton OTT, and 1X 50gr Mac Baren Vanilla Cream Flake! I had showed her this pipe a while back and I guess she remembered it. I had actually wanted one of these a few years ago, but they're kinda hard to...

    Show Off Your Bent Bulldogs Here!

    This will be added to the sticky "Show Off" section. I'll start this one off with my only (for now) bent bulldog, a Dr. Grabow 1/4 bent "Royalton". This pipe smokes very well, especially for being a cheap pipe. It really sings with Mac Baren coins, like Roll Cake.

    Show Off Your Canadians Here!

    This will be added to the sticky "show Off" section. Here's my one and only Canadian, a no-name Israeli Made spot carved pipe, simply marked with an "X" on top of the stem. I paid $9 for this pipe at an antique store, it was pretty rough but it cleaned up nice. I bought it because I didn't...

    Show Off Your Straight Pots Here!

    I talked with Smokey to get an Ok on this. Since there are so many makers out there, I thought it'd be good to have "Show Off" threads of general pipe shapes so that no matter what brand of pipe you have, it can find a spot in the "Show Off" section! I'll be starting a few today, but if you have...

    Manning VS Brady Predictions!?

    Regardless of whoever wins this game, it'll probably be better than the Super Bowl itself! Being from Tennessee, I'm pulling for Manning! Even though his playoff record against Brady is not exactly stellar, I believe the stars will align this time! If I can't have my Packers in the Super Bowl...

    Got Any Pics Of Your Local B&M?

    I thought it might be fun to see pics of y'alls local B&M's, and maybe hear a story about it. Here's mine, Williams Tobacco Shop here in Cleveland TN. Not a very big store, but well stocked for it's size. Melvin (the owner) has several large humidors, with lots of cigars, and quite a few house...
