    ***What Are You Smoking, September 2025?***

    A little Haunted Bookshop (plus perique) in a beater church warden atop the Mighty Pacific.

    Three nuns dating.

    Not speaking from experience, but from my understanding you'd have better luck dating 3 priests. The nuns tend to take their vows pretty seriously.

    Taking out the trash..

    If it's interfering with lighting the tobacco, dump the ash. Otherwise, don't fix the unbroken.

    Show Off Your Meerschaum Pipes Here!

    The gloves in the picture (if I'm not mistaken) are disposable black latex gloves, just like the ones my former customer used. I have nothing against gloves being worn during smoking, nor a fez or smoking jacket, but black disposable latex gloves for smoking were a new one to me.

    Birthday Pipes

    Misread that originally, 30 is even better!

    Show Off Your Meerschaum Pipes Here!

    As long as they're not made of disposable latex, I'm fine with it.

    Show Off Your Meerschaum Pipes Here!

    Once upon a time I ran a humidor in a smoke shop and had a customer who wore gloves just like that every time he smoked a cigar. I think he may have even brought in a pair for me at one point - like he was doing me a favor? He didn't like the way cigars made his hands smell. It was so frigging...

    Birthday Pipes

    Addiction is giving up everything in exchange for just one thing. Recovery is giving up just one thing in exchange for everything else. Congrats on 13 and keep at it!

    Birthday Pipes

    Got a birthday coming up, noticed someone had a few Falcon Meerschaum bowls in stock, so I dropped a few hints and have reasonable certainty I'll be getting one or two!

    Tongue burn question

    Me too! But I hate KFC for the most part, so it's mostly Burley and perique for me. Also, I have yet to experience tongue bite from higher end aromatics, specifically dan tobacco products. All the c&d aros get me though.

    Are Pipe Brochures Valuable?

    It was on this forum that I found out there is big money to be made on used saxophone mouthpieces. Nothing surprises me anymore.

    Pipe Smoking, Relationships, and Compromise

    Those "my way or the highway" guys are the ones whose wife's leave them for a guy they found on Facebook. They end up living out the last of their days in trailers, alone with their alzheimers, crying about the fact that no one likes them and today's world is against them. I'm currently...

    ***What Are You Smoking, August 2025?***

    Smoking through some Cascadia i picked up from a fellow forum member, really enjoying plug tobacco in general these days.

    Has Anybody Seen My Pack of Brigham Filters?

    You give too much discount to the theories of spontaneous combustion.

    Why are estate pipes ok?

    This place is a lot of fun when everyone comes out to play!

    Why are estate pipes ok?

    Google the phrase "individual surface" and see what you come up with. I think I know what you're trying to say, but the word's you're using aren't saying it.

    Why are estate pipes ok?

    All I did was call them toothbrush refurbishers. You're comparing them to old ladies that collect fine China and that feels like a line you shouldn't cross.

    Why are estate pipes ok?

    You seemed to have invented an issue i don't have? I don't go to the zoo to become a monkey, but rather to observe the monkeys. I have no concern that I might buy a used pipe nor any concern that you might. Simply curious why people choose to do it. The answers are few and far between but...
