    Philly's Morley's Pipe Club 7:00pm Thursday 3Nov

    Bruce advises that the November meeting will be really early: Thursday 3Nov, which is the first (not the third) Thursday of the month. Normally we need to schedule to steer clear of the Thanksgiving holiday. We're still beavering our way through the veritable explosion of FDA-inspired new (and...

    RO Series Acadian Gold - RussO hits another winner

    Last night's Lehigh Valley Pipe Club's makeup meeting provided a revelation. At previous meetings, we had heard from the great Russ Ouellette about his innovative idea, per "In October of 2015, while spending a day with Mark Ryan at the L.A. Poche Perique Company in St. James Parish, Louisiana...

    Marking the passing of the tobacco world as we knew it

    How are folks commemorating August 8, 2016? Assuming the lawsuits for an injunction against the FDA Deeming !@#$%^&* and the Congressional bills don't succeed, tomorrow marks the end of free samples and the hoisting of barriers against new blend introductions. We just witnessed a supernova of...

    Dan just got back from Hungary and set the date for August Morley's. Our monthly meeting is next Thursday 11Aug, a week earlier than our usual 3rd Thursday/Wednesday. It is a mite early, but the better to plan for the NASPC pipe show at the end of the month. Pipe shows will have to change...

    Next Morley's is back to the third Thursday, next week the 21st. We have more than the usual stuff that could be discussed: the 40% PA tax hike proposal, the FDA Deeming, and upcoming picnics at Lehigh Valley and New York. hp les

    Bohemian Scandal vs. Renaissance (and Reserve)

    Nate was wondering how these two compared. I didn't get back into pipstering till after these were introduced, but I've amassed some of each for my Top200 Cellar. I suspect I would have like BS more when it was fresh, but both have mellowed so much that I consider them diminished. The...

    Ashton Cigars and Ashton pipes

    There is an entertaining thread which involved an Ashton bar, and the following was written: "The fact that the franchise is supported by a pipe maker, Ashton, is insult to injury." As it turns out, Ashton Cigars and Ashton pipes have no formal commercial linkage. When I jumped back into...

    Philly's Morley's Pipe Club 7:00pm Wednesday 15June

    The third week of the month is coming up on us pretty fast, and next week's Morley's is going to be the 3rd Wednesday, rather than the Thursday. We may get to harass member Dan Z. Johnson if he comes, for the cameo article on the Standard Tobacco/PA saga in this month's Pipes & Tobacco...

    Philly's Morley's Pipe Club 7:00pm Thursday 14April

    April's Morley's meeting will be the 2nd Thursday, 14Apr, at the usual most excellent place and time. The usual 3rd Thursday was open but since a number of us are going to the Chicagoland Pipe Show, the earlier day serves to buffer the timing to give our tongues time to recover. hp les

    Another month with an early Morley's: next week on the 2nd Thursday, 11Feb. We can organize ourselves for car pooling to the IPSD celebration being organized by the New York Pipe Club on Saturday 20Feb. Chances are it will be at the newly refurbished JR Cigars up in Whippany, NJ, rather than...

    Is SP in SC ok with all the rain?

    Watching the news, I was amazed at the biblical amount of rainfall that's going through South Carolina. And it's going to maintain the pace till Tuesday night! The maps look like Charleston is in the middle of it, and I thought of how sponsor Smoking Pipes is doing. Any word? hp les
