    The Gladiators are Back

    The Isle of Man TT is back for 2022. Will Dunlop regain the throne? Does McGuinness still have it to over take Joey's record? I'm just glad that the gladiators are back. I miss Guy Martin on the circuit. Live streaming starts May 28th.

    Forgotten Gems

    I was playing around with the cellar when I came across these tins buried in the bottom of a tub. I recall liking this blend many years back.

    Traditional New Year

    I am fixing a traditional Southern New Years meal for tomorrow and having the family over. I am serving spiral ham, black-eyed peas on rice, collard greens with bacon drippings of course, yeast rolls, fried corn bread and sweet iced tea. Cooking the peas ahead of time with a ham bone and letting...

    That Time of the Year

    It's Christmas time and no one has mentioned that time honored favorite delicacy we all wait for all year...fruit cake. I for one actually love the stuff, along with my family, and am on the last 2 pounds of the eight pounds I got this year. My grandparents made it homemade and I have yet to...

    Posting Images

    The bar above the reply where you attach an image, bold or underline is grayed out. I am unable to upload and post pictures. Just happened today. I have rebooted and logged out. Not sure if it's something I'm doing wrong or a glitch with the site.

    A Proud Father

    Well they say the apple doesn't fall far from the tree and tonight I got a text from my second oldest son. He is now of age and wants me to teach him the art of pipe smoking. My oldest is a pipe smoker and I look forward to passing this hobby on to another son. The twins are 17 so a few years...

    Pouched Tobacco

    I have accumulated many St. Bruno and Salty Dogs pouches, among others, and was wondering how long the tobacco can be kept in its original packaging before it starts to loose its freshness.

    TAPS Raleigh

    Is there anyone on the forum that is a member of TAPS? The club has not met since the start of Covid and I noticed the website and FB page are off line. Just wondering if the club has been disbanded. Any info would be appreciated.

    Another Pipe Identification Help Thread

    A buddy of mine and fellow pipe smoker (thanks to me) was given a pipe with no markings, according to him, but unique enough that someone here probably knows what it is. I personally have not seen the pipe so here are some pictures he sent me. Thanks in advance.

    New Pipes

    Tomorrow is the big 50 for me and my wonderful wife and daughter got me a couple of beautiful pipes. They picked them and surprised me this evening with a Savinelli and an Eric Nording.

    Beard Trimmers

    My Philips beard trimmer is on its last legs and I was wondering if anyone here has a recommendation for a good beard trimmer. I keep a full beard so something that doesn't trim close.

    Tobacco Farming

    I have mentioned before that I live surrounded by farm fields. Earlier this week I was fortunate enough to be working from home when the plows showed up to tend the surrounding fields. I stepped out and went across the street to talk to the farmer for a bit. We had a pleasant conversation...

    MM Aquires OD

    I received an email from Missouri Meerschaum announcing the aquisition of Old Dominion. MM plans to carry the OD line including clay pipes. What thoughts have you, fellow pipers?

    Got To Have It

    I have a fair amount of pipes (60) in my rotation and decided that I was going to lay off buying any more pipes this year. I even went so far as to order a couple of pipe stands which covered my pipes exactly. Great plan, right? Well lo and behold, Savinelli releases their 2021 line up and...

    Fellini Find

    A friend of mine was given this pipe. It is a Fellini #250. Never heard of it until today and not much can be found as to the history behind the make. Petty cool find. I'm going to pick it up from him this week and give it a good look over and clean up. This one will be returning to smoking...
