    Tobaccoreview Not Accessible From Outside the US?

    They actually have links to online shops in every review (where that blend could be bought), so that might also be part of it.

    Jim's Updated and Revised SWR Review.

    Seeing this thread reminded me of the pouch of SWR that I jarred 5 or 6 months ago, so I went ahead and filled half a bowl, out of caution. First time I smoked SWR when I just got it, I couldn't even finish the bowl because of the extreme sourness. After its time in the jar, the sourness is...

    Pipe Portraits: What do They Mean?

    Van Gogh is the first one (auto portrait). I thought the question was about the 2nd picture.

    Have You Heard of Škija Ravnjak / Drina / Herzegovina Flor?

    I've definitely heard of Herzegovina Flor before, in connection with Stalin. Not the other ones though. As far as I know, "for" is not a word in Russian language. Plural for фора will be форы (fory). No one says "дать форы" however - it's "дать фору". So I think that was an invention of...

    Have You Heard of Škija Ravnjak / Drina / Herzegovina Flor?

    I'm pretty sure that "даст фор" in Mayakovsky's "poem" means "give a fora". "For" rhymes with "Flor", while "fora" doesn't. Mayakovsky was a part of futurist movement and as such, felt free to modify the words to fit them into rhyme meter.

    This Happened At Work Today

    A proper professional scanner, like SnapOn, could cost a few thousand. A Chinese clone could be had for a couple hundred bucks. But this is not the point - the point is that losing the only car key is a much bigger PITA than losing one of the two keys.

    PAD: Job Pipe Bud of Titania

    I wonder why it has to be made of titanium? I imagine if it was stainless steel, it would have been much cheaper, but not inferior in smoking characteristics in any way?

    This Happened At Work Today

    It is the case for "smart" key - if you still have one more original key, you can even program a copy yourself if you have the tool (a scanner that can program smart keys). However, if you've lost the only key, you can't make a copy yourself, and you have to go through a dealership which I...

    This Happened At Work Today

    Don't lose your only car key! If you still have the other one, it's relatively cheap to make a copy, using the one you have as a master. If you lose the only one, the procedure is much more complicated and has to go through the car manufacturer. It involves making sure that you are really the...

    Coloring of yellow meers

    I think the resin would still get hot and evaporate.

    This Happened At Work Today

    My wife tried to talk me into getting a man purse at some point, but I would rather walk around with pockets full of phones, keys, and wallets, than carry one of those things!
