Choicest Plugs
GH Dark Plug is probably my favourite. I like slicing up plugs to prep them for smoking, I find it almost as enjoyable as smoking them. I made some plugs with Whole Leaf Tobacco's dark fired and dark air cured with various combinations of home grown burley and bulk condimentals that turned out...- canucklehead

Does Pipe Smoking Reduce Stress and/or Blood Pressure?
That is entirely conjecture on your part. Nicotine acts as a traditional stimulant working on the dopamine and adrenergic systems. Caffeine is actually the unusual stimulant in that it acts on the adenosine sleepiness triggering system.- canucklehead

Does Pipe Smoking Reduce Stress and/or Blood Pressure?
Nicotine is a stimulant, it causes epinephrine release and raises blood pressure. People that are more sensitive to it can have dramatic blood pressure spikes.

I wanted to research the medical facts to figure out the best treatment option without letting...- canucklehead

Just for discussions sake, who chooses who gets published? A lot of stuff is published that is based on flawed premises. There was seemingly scientific consensus on Alzheimers until recently, for a completely unrelated to the weather example...- canucklehead

Is It Hotter Where You Live Now?

It's so wet that I have had 5 kinds of mushrooms grow in my normally dry yard, and it is getting close to frosting overnight already, it was only 5°C the last couple nights. Despite the cold and wet weather, we have...- canucklehead
