    Pineapple on Pizza: Yea or Nay?

    I dunno, but my cousin's half-brother got me started on Black Pepper on Ice Cream.

    Forgot Where I Left Some Tobacco, and Still Can't Find It!

    My wife still claims that she bought me a pound bag of pipe tobacco two Christmases ago, but she has yet to discover where she hid it before getting around to wrapping it that year.

    Pineapple on Pizza: Yea or Nay?

    I remember back when I lived in Oregon, "Canadian Bacon and Pineapple" pizza was well known. They weren't too bad, just not my first choice. Until one of those sailors who went west after 1492 brought some tomato seeds back to Italy, and then years went by before Europeans were willing to eat...

    Is rosewood toxic?

    Sounds like it would make for a hazardous room to enter during a structure fire!

    Rodent Abatement: What's Your Preferred Method?

    Just don't confuse horse apples with road apples!

    Leatherman Multitools & Their Imitators.

    If you ever have a night in the pub like that again, just make sure to refuse whatever any guy named Solomon wants you to cut in half!

    Captan Black Grape Discontinued!

    Every once in a while, I'm actually in the mood to burn a bowl or two of that Grape Nehi flavor I get from CB Grape.

    The “Parfait Jar”

    It's an ever-changing mixture (mine's labelled the Odds of the Ends jar), every time you add in some, it changes; every time you take out a bowlful to smoke, it changes. Don't be surprised when it surprises you!

    Meerschaum-Lined Briars!? What Sorcery is This?

    One thing about a Meer-lined pipe, you don't have to deal with a beeswax coating since there''s no outside meer surface.

    Intimidation, Y’all Know too Much

    I have two JACOB pipes, both #10 but one is smooth and the other rusticated. When I tried to find out about them online, I only found information about a "Jacob" shape clay pipe, made by many companies over the 19th century (mostly) that were an old man's face with a long straight beard. That...

    Intimidation, Y’all Know too Much

    If it ain't stamped into the pipe, I'm not likely to know anything more about it.

    Pipes & Cigars

    There are places where mold is endemic. Kind-of like with us humans. We all carry within us the pneumoccus bacteria, always just waiting for us to weaken enough for them to go wild on reproduction of itself, to kill us with pneumonia.

    Don't Want to Spend a Lot on a Rack

    This household has cats, so racks need to be behind protection from being shoved off whatever surface you've placed them on by critters chasing each other, stretching while curled up, etc. At the moment, I only have two racks, one holding three pipes, the other holding eight, with a tobacco...

    What do you Think about Mesh Balls?

    Most of the time now (it's been since 1973), I tend to get just white ash at the bottom. But I've noted that conical-shaped chambers tend to accumulate soggy dottle hereabouts. Then, there are particular blends (for me, mostly cavendish-bearing blends) that leave dottle. And then, of course...

    Are There Some Blends You Only Smoke In Certain Seasons

    The only season that counts with my pipe smoking here, is: Do I Have Any of ...... Right Now?

    Chinese v MM Cobs

    I bought a Fujima (Chinese) cob from a local small neighborhood grocer a couple of years back when they were having a going-out-of-business sale. The finish wasn't all that great, and the shank came loose from the cob the first time I smoked it. Outside of that, it smokes OK, but nothing to...

    Yet Another Scam

    There used to be an ftc.gov email address you could forward suspicious emails to. Over the past few months, I've received a few phone calls purporting to be my grandson calling. The last guy hung up immediately when I pointed out that he didn't sound like my one-and-only grandson, almost 4...

    Tobacco Drovers. New to Me, I Learn Something Everyday.

    I understand that there was once "common" a barrel size called a Tun, which held 250 gallons.

    CupoJoe’s Bought Out by Sutliff

    I suppose Cup-O-Joes will no longer be able to ship pipe tobacco to me here in Maine, no longer being strictly a "small" operation.

    The Cowboy and the Tamper; A short story.

    Sorry, but my fingers are fresh out of calluses these days. They kind of went away from the lack of use any more.
