    I Need Help From My Posse!

    Yes, the Pipestud is easily replaceable, but the seller doesn't have to broadcast it, does he? I emailed the guy and asked him to remove my name from his auction. So far, no response. You guys are sure better than me when it comes to delving out justice. Here's the link -...

    Howdy Gang, I just got back from another outstanding Greater Kansas City Pipe Show held at the Argosy Hotel & Casino.

    A Special Thanks To (GULP!) Peckinpaughombre!

    Well Gents, I turned on my computer this morning and went to my eBay site to check on sales. I was shocked (pleasantly), to see that I had just received my 12,000th positive feedback. And guess who it came from? Yep, that dastardly old Peck'hombre. So now, whenever I think of that 12,000th...

    Broken Pipe - Paolo Becker

    I learned this evening that Italian pipe maker Paolo Becker has died. I received the sad news from a good friend of Paolo's who lives in New York. It is ironic because I just sold a Paolo Becker and a Fritz Becker pair of pipes today on eBay. Fritz, of course, was the founder of the brand and...

    It's Been A Great Ride But Now I'm History

    This is my last week of work after 17-years of holding the keys to what, for me, was a magical office. I sure appreciated an undeserved but very nice story done by one of our local television stations last night and thought I'd share it with you. When you see where I "worked" I think you will...

    Thank You, Seattle Pipe Club!

    I recently returned from the Seattle Pipe Club's Annual Dinner & Auction held at Smokey Joe's in the Seattle area. As the guest speaker at their dinner I was overwhelmed by the organization of the event and the unbelievable hospitality they showed. There were about 50 people in attendance...

    One of the things I will discuss at the upcoming Seattle Pipe Show dinner is the fact that Pipe Shows are truly an important part of our hobby. Any suggestions on what makes a great pipe show for you? Thanks for your help, Pipestud

    Pipes Sure Are Funny Critters

    Howdy Gang, As I was looking over my rack of pipes that I smoke the most, I selected my top-10 out of the bunch and decided to look at the little quirks of each of my favorites (the favorite part is that they impart the full flavor of the tobacco I am smoking). I am not going to name the makers...

    Anyone Heard of Glass Smoking Pipes?

    Howdy Gang, I am used to getting calls from pipe smokers who want me to sell unusual pipes that I don't think would work for me. Just a couple of months ago I had a gentleman ask if I'd sell an old tomahawk shaped Native American Indian wood pipe that was non-functional and just a display piece...

    Hudson's Bay Pipe Tobacco Review

    Brian Levine knows of my love for the old Murray's era Dunhill Royal Yacht. So, he recently gifted me a couple of tins of the new Brigham offering, Hudson's Bay. He said it was similar to Royal Yacht and thought I might enjoy it. Have I ever! It has a different added flavoring that Royal Yacht...

    My Pipe Club's Annual OTC Throwdown results

    Howdy Gang, Our local Waco (Texas) Pipe Club holds an OTC (Over The Counter) blends throwdown every June. We get large tins of a variety of old classic blends and then following a couple of hours of smoking we rate our favorites. It is a very unscientific contest as most of the club members can...
