    Penzance Gone in Seconds

    +1 soymilk. I like Penzance but don't think it is worth the asking price (new stock). But to each his own and his own tastes. Life is too short to smoke blends you don't like. :puffy:

    Molto dolce room note

    I don't just absolutely love the taste, but it isn't bad. It's the only aromatic I smoke. I too have been stopped on more than one occasion and told the smell is divine. My wife definitely likes it better than my latakia. :puffy:

    COPD

    @seadog, I won't offer any medical advice, but you're in my thoughts. Do what's best for you. Only you know how your body feels and reacts. Best of luck. :puffy:

    Clenching

    I clench all of my pipes. I try to only let the pipe hang from my top teeth and test on my lowers. You may still get some teeth marks, but your jaw won't hurt. And I fish, hunt, work, etc. that way and have never dropped a pipe...yet. :puffy:

    Meer Coloring Experiment That Worked

    They look good. I've taken several Meers I didn't care for and smoke them while rubbing beeswax on them while smoking. I've got some interesting patterns over the years. Keep experimenting. :puffy:

    I'm in the hospital ICU...

    Medication can be a great thing, but often times it is worse than the alternative. Get well fast, buddy. :puffy:

    How Many Blends Do You Cellar?

    @lestrout - I can't imagine seeing 1300 blends in one place at one time, let alone trying to decide what is next in the rotation. Maybe I'm just still too much of a newbie. Wow! :puffy:

    The wife has taken me off the weed.

    @gphenry - best of luck on the surgery. While not our favorite thing leading up to surgery (no smoking/alcohol), I believe it is best for you. I had some major dental work done (emergency style) so I couldn't lay off the pipe before-hand. But I had to lay off of it for several weeks after...

    Dad at 80, Remembering Pipe Smoking

    @maxx - awesome story. If I live anywhere near 80, I hope to still be smoking my daily bowl. It seems to help the world go by a little better. Regards. :puffy:

    Feeling All Alone:

    Work always seems to interfere with the Chicago show. Luckily I've made the Saint Louis show the last two years. I'm not a fan of crowds either but enjoying seeing pipe people and the different vendors. :puffy:

    How Many Blends Do You Cellar?

    I normally keep about 10 blends in the cellar. If I find something I really like, I will keep smoking it awhile before I actually start to cellar it. I've found too many where I think I like them, but after a couple of months my tastes change or the blend changes, etc. That being said, the...
