Tongue Bite Question
There's no cure, once you get it, except time. I tried Biotene and it didn't do much, if anything. Virginia's seem to bite more that English blends, so you might want to avoid them for a while. Other than that, dry the tobacco, and puff slow. If you start to feel like you're getting hotter...- ron123

New Proposed Bill Seeks to Eliminate Online Tobacco Sales
It's not a big deal. Tobacco businesses just need to adapt their business models in the name of saving the children...and start producing and selling women's toiletries. Instead of B&M's we can start supporting D&T's...douches and tampons... I really have no idea why there are apologists on a...- ron123

New Proposed Bill Seeks to Eliminate Online Tobacco Sales
It's opening fine for me. Using Firefox. Here's the opening paragraph, though...pretty much sums it up: Energy and Commerce Chairman Frank Pallone, Jr. (D-NJ) and Rep. Donna Shalala (D-FL) have introduced a new comprehensive piece of legislation aimed at address the sharp uptick in tobacco and...- ron123

Does Current Produced Schürch Onix 128 Still has Sirian Latakia?
That sounds pretty interesting. This is already being done, or in the works? Any further info would be neat to hear.- ron123

Books: The Peterson Pipe, The Story of Kapp & Peterson
I've got a copy due to arrive tomorrow from SP, along with a couple other pipe books I've been meaning to add. Hopefully...I'm sure they will...get the new Tom Eltang book in soon. Tom posted pics of a few pages on Instagram and there were some cool churchwarden/cavalier sitters in one of the...- ron123

Keep Your Eye On THIS Auction --- It Will Go Nuclear
$400 a piece, for patent era blasts, seems about right. Their condition, and the fact that they're a cased set will add a premium. How much of a premium beyond their values individually is what we'll soon find out. I'll guess they'll close at $2K for the set, but that's totally just a guess...- ron123

Lat Bomb
The 10 Russians you have coming should satisfy your desire for Lat very well. Bow Legged Bear is another that you might want to try. Pembroke is worth mentioning, although this is from Esoterica, which basically makes it an endangered species.- ron123

Disney Is Banning Smoking and Vaping at Amusement Parks
A year or two ago, I saw an article that Disney was going to let go a bunch of well-payed IT guys, and replace them with cheaper workers they were bringing in from India. They were offering a severance deal to the American workers, contingent on them training their new Indian replacements, as...- ron123

What Music Are You Listening To ~ March 2019
Just checked this out...good quality live version. Hey Dino, Funny. I was just looking for Wait Until Tomorrow by Hendrix, but am only finding covers on YouTube. I like the story and how he tells it in that song.- ron123

Truck Pipe Stand
I thought this might be a good option, but it turned out to be too shallow and sat too low in my car's cup holder. I think a large, not very filled, bean bag would work well in a car holder - filled enough to sit higher than 1/2 way up the inside of the cup holder, and loose enough so that you...- ron123

The Wait Is Over...
(Also I would suggest the entire line of Capt Earl's [:)] Start with Mystic, then Nightwatch, then 10 Russians, private, etc etc.. enjoy!) I gotta give this stuff a try. I love Krumble Kakes, too. Just ordered a nice load of 10 Russians...wish I had seen this thread a few days ago...would've...- ron123

Who Makes The White Spot Pipes?
I kinda like that Santa analogy. I wanna know the truth behind current production Dunhills...but then again, do I? Ken Barnes might be able to put this question to bed, but then again maybe he's being the responsible adult and is sheltering us ;-)- ron123

Is Email Dead?
<p>Teenagers almost exclusively seem to not use email for communicating...just my personal observation. That being said, I deal with way more(emails, not teenagers) than I care to every day just like the rest of you. So, yeah, I wish it was dead- ron123

Would You Buy 100$ Frog Morton 100g Tin??
I kinda like the cigars analogy. Most decent cigars cost at least $10, and if you get 10 smokes out of a tin for $100, you're paying the same $10/smoke. Conversely, will you enjoy the $10 pipe-full of Frog Morton, 10x's as much as a currently produced readily available tin of something else...- ron123
