    The First Step or a Bradleyish Post

    Sitting in the kitchen, checking the PM forums, drying some Peter Stokkebye Luxury Twist Flake to smoke after everyone sleeps, wifey is playing with the toddler in another room. All of a sudden she asks me to go and see. "See what?" me asks. "Just come!" she responds. I go and see my 1 year old...

    Esoterica Tobacciana - St. Ives

    I am smoking last bowl of it in my clay pipe. I smoked this blend in a cob, briar and clay pipe and I can say that cob experience was better than all. It is an interesting blend actually, I haven't smoked anything like this before. The fruity-citrusy notes go well together with the Orientals...

    Peterson as a Basket Pipe?

    Last year a friend of mine moved to London and as soon as he arrived he took some pictures of amazing pipes from a local B&M and sent to me. It was long time ago and I didn't know that much about pipes back then. I was checking the pictures yesterday again and I realized that there were some...

    How Men's Room Sign Should Be!

    It was my cousin's wedding ceremony 2 weeks ago and I saw an amazing sign showing men's restroom in a wedding venue. My smartphone was broken so I had to take the photo with my old but loyal phone. Sorry for the crappy photo. Here comes the question, try to guess the sign of women's restroom.

    Smoker's Palate or Nicotine Stomatitis

    I have been smoking pipe for a year already and there were times that I was smoking 3 bowls a day, however I have never had this before. I was just enjoying a bowl of pipe (max 2 bowls) in the evenings and few days ago I realized that there was a small bump between hard and soft palate of mine...

    Generous Scrooge

    It was 2 weeks ago that our fellow forum member Jim (aka scrooge) was offering some free samples of tobacco. I asked for one and after travelling half of the world the box landed in my country. I received a notification yesterday in the morning and during the lunch break I managed to go to pick...

    My Pipe Dream - Documentary

    Va/Per Taste

    I really love Va and Va/Per blends (tobacco, nicotine content, etc), however I cannot truly taste a Va/Per blend. While retro-haling, I feel some spiciness in my nostrils and I guess that's coming from Perique. Does it take some time to get the flavor of Va/Per blends? So far I have smoked H&H...

    STG - C'est La Vie

    This is the best burning and the coolest, however the worst tasting blend I have smoked so far. I understand why they named it C'est La Vie (That's Life). It has no meaning, no character, it might look perfect but when you get into it, it is empty. I don't know how they managed to do it, but no...

In my case, I started with...

    FDA Hoax?

    I guess it was 2005 when avian influenza (bird flu) outbreak happened. I remember that I was visiting my uncle who is a doctor. I brought up the topic and said how dangerous it was, how World Health Organization increased the pandemic alert level, etc. The only thing he said was "It is a hoax"...
