    What Is Your Favorite Snack

    Wifey's homemade guacamole, also with the TJ's tort chips, but the yellow ones (organic, of course). Paired with a vodka tonic is quite nice.

    Sticks, Balls, And Other Things.

    Played a number of different sports over the years. Football was probably the worst of the bunch, as I was a tiny, scrawny kid, yet couldn't run particularly fast. These same shortcomings held me back when it came to basketball, but I was a little better at that because I learned how to emulate...

    Professor Plum

    Thought from the title that this was going to be a thread about pre-STG Escudo or something. 🧐

    Removing Pipe Bag Scuffs - Please Help!

    A big shout out to @ssjones who, despite having to put up with my 5000+ posts on here over the last five years (many of which were sarcastic, obnoxious, politically incorrect, or a combination of the three), took it upon himself to offer to buff out the leather scuffs. As the photos below (his...

    Smokingpipes.com Barling Sale

    Wow, that's a gorgeous one. I think I like the lighter stem hue even more than the one in the 1st pic above. Enjoy! 😍

    How much do you cellar?

    Translation: a fruitful career raking hapless nicotine addicts over the coals on TinBids lies ahead... 🔮 :ROFLMAO: Ah, but I kid, because I've got a fair bit of that going on myself, and I'm not the gouging type. There's something oddly enjoyable about smoking something that's out of...

    Let's just say that CB Grape and codgerdom don't mix... :eek:

    Just Checking In...

    Welcome back. You missed quite a lot; Cosmic became a mod (again), Sutliff and Mac Baren were buried alongside their deceased predecessors, and every forum member received a free pound of Capt. Black Grape. One of the above is fictional. ;)

    Ford Announces the Next Model T

    Only interested if it will have the classic "ooga" horn.

    Not Looking Likely That Seattle Pipe Club Will Be Back On The Market?

    Me neither, but this happened to me with several Mac Baren blends, so I'm effectively in the same position. C'est la vie. 🤷‍♂️

    Local Mac Baren Find

    A lovely score. Best I've ever managed at mine was a tin of Ashton Gold Rush with several years of age. At roughly 2.5 lbs., Plumcake is the blend I have the most of on hand.

    Orlik GS vs PS 400 Navy

    I recently finished a jar of OGS. Not entirely sure how old it was, but it was definitely pre-covid. Popped a 2022 tin immediately thereafter, and put it in the same jar. Here's where it took an interesting turn: the citrus note of the newer batch smelled noticeably weaker than the older one...

    This Makes ALot Of Sense

    George Carlin once said that he thought the warnings on alcoholic beverages were too lax, instead recommending something like, "Warning: Alcohol will turn you into the same asshole your father was!" :LOL:

    Capstan Blue

    Not to mention a much dumber place as well! :ROFLMAO: Ah, but to the OP: with a lot of my favorite straight VAs getting the axe of late, I think your best bet would be C&D Opening Night.

    Wash mason jars between tobaccos?

    If I'm putting another portion of the exact same blend in the jar, I don't wash it. Other than that, you bet your kiester I do! puffy

    Peter Heinrichs Can Seal

    You lost me at "incontinence." Not that my attention drifted elsewhere...I simply had to get to the john tout de suite. ;)

    Peter Heinrichs Can Seal

    @woodsroad do you teach courses on how to derail threads, and if so, how much do they cost? And as an aside, would you take seal blubber in lieu of payment?

    New Generation Amtrak Ancela Trains Announced

    Not to mention immune from stuff like parts falling off, engines catching on fire, dropping 1000 feet in half a second for no reason etc.
