    What are You Watching?

    I'll agree with you that Better Call Saul is a great show. I watched the first episode a long time ago, after finishing Breaking Bad, and was underwhelmed initially. I've since gone back to it, and am glad I did...Better Call Saul is up there on par with Breaking Bad IMHO. I'm about half way...

    Famous Living Pipe Smokers

    I watched the original Alien movie (1979) last week, and it was kinda funny with all the cigarettes being smoked on the ship.

    Trump’s 2021Budget: Tobacco and FDA

    Oh, Ok, cool, I'm glad Rudy doesn't just have it out for me ? I know it's grasping at straws. Giuliani has given no indication that he might lobby Trump on behalf of tobacco in any form...just trying to see if I can find any light at the end of the tunnel besides the freight train barrelling...

    Trump’s 2021Budget: Tobacco and FDA

    Don't you mean he doesn't care about us? Yeah, I hear ya about how it won't affect his cigar smoking, but nothing new there...he wouldn't be the first politician covering his own cigar needs before enacting an embargo creating a new agency.

    Substitute for Penzance?

    The current production of Penzance almost seems to be a substitute for what Penzance once was. A tin last year was a broken flake at best...no full slices at all, and a pouch I have open now, had what appeared to be flakes, but falls apart in you hands and rubs out to a lot of it being the size...

    Trump’s 2021Budget: Tobacco and FDA

    Giuliani, a friend of Trump's, is a cigar smoker. My hope all along has been that Rudy is chirping in the president's ear regarding this or any other tobacco moves.

    Chicago Pipe Show 2020 Plans

    Surpassed only by the assholiness. You and rest on this thread can blow me. If you don’t like me telling you that, you’ll need to tell me in person as I’ll leave this thread to you and the rest of the cackling dumbshits. Whatever the opposite of “nothing personal” is, it applies to this...

    Chicago Pipe Show 2020 Plans

    Your posts and the other chuckleheads chiming in are slinging mud. Get real. Let’s call a spade a spade. When you piss on people and try to tell them it’s raining, do you really expect them to believe you? Disingenuous af

    Purchase of New Dunhill (Whitespot) Concerns and Questions

    Hence my signature. Fuck ‘em LOL. The difference between “us” and “them” is I could give a flying fuck about their Peterson’s and Castellos. If that’s what you enjoy, good for you. I feel no need to piss all over their preference in pipes.

    What are You Watching?

    Malkovich really is great. To @cosmicfolklore 's poin't, it probably is blasphemous, but it's good drama. It takes over where the Young Pope leaves off, which primarily starred Jude Law, who continues with his role as the Pope who is now medically unable to fulfill his papal duties...

    What are You Watching?

    Legend, about the Kray bothers, is on Netflix. I wasn't aware of these guys until now - a twin brother London crime syndicate. Very entertaining, especially if you enjoy the Mafia genre of films...pretty intense, and very funny in spots, as well.

    I wish I had the kind of time on my hands that allowed me to post idle speculation, based on nothing other than my mischievous imagination.

    Purchase of New Dunhill (Whitespot) Concerns and Questions

    Michael Parks pipes are awesome and he does the classics very well. He always has a waiting list. The best way to proceed with him is to find something that you like on his site, and ask him to make another. You can request changes in size, stains, smooth or blasted, and stem material, but...

    Just Found An American War Hero On My Family Tree!

    That's a cool family tie-in...wish I was related to 007. I've wondered why there isn't the James Bond fanaticism in proportion to what we see surrounding Sherlock Holmes.
