    This is what I Like

    I live in the UK and I have been to Scotland many times. Yes, I love all the food too, but I've never been the Loch or Inverness yet. They say it is so bloody cold up there, but I shall get myself around into going some time during the summer.

    How Clean is your Pipe?

    @ ivapewithfire: thanks mate: those comments mean a lot to me.

    It's Hip to be Square

    Tell me about it. If I could speak English like Gandalf did in the Lord of the Rings, I'd give my my Spanish. :-)

    This is what I Like

    I guess I haven't got any healthy habits because of the fact I can't cook.

    Thanks for that comment mate: no offense taken.

    It's Hip to be Square

    We, pipe smokers, already know that this hobby, if it ever were, has nothing to do with lampoon characters, being snobbish or having a sassy accent, but it is true most people still see it as an embarrassing anachronism. I can see myself how the scene is changing, and I think we should ask...

    This is what I Like

    I am not particularly overweight, but I can see this is not the best diet in the world. Now what, this is all I know. Any suggestions?

    This is what I Like

    I like bread pudding and custard, rhubarb crumble (with or without custard), caramelized onion sausages with baked spuds, Shepherd's Pie, Irish stew and both macaroni cheese and pizza. OK, who's cracking the first joke?

    How Clean is your Pipe?

    On another note, this is another instance of how important correct grammar and punctuation is (I should have said "reaming the cake" and not "rimming the cake"), but I have the perfect excuse: I am from Spain, so I only speak English as a second language. I had a B+ in this subject when I did my...

    How Clean is your Pipe?

    I am a very difficult guy to get on with as I am an Austrian theoretician who holds a non-conventional point of view in economic theory, so I usually crash with big government advocates, but I am not even getting political here: all I have done so far is expressing my opinions and ideas about...

    How Clean is your Pipe?

    You really know how to crack a joke.

    How Clean is your Pipe?

    Yes, I have admitted to the fact I run pipe cleaners through the stem too (even the shaft), but I don't dip them in alcohol. When I get too much condensation in the shaft I use toilet roll, but I don't see the point in using any abrasives or alcohol.

    How Clean is your Pipe?

    Thanks for that mate. Samcoffeeman is also insulting me in my own language (Jorge, eres tonto, cállate: George, shut up, you are a retard), but I have a very thick skin. I don't know how many times I apologized in the other thread they are referring to for putting my foot in my mouth, but it...

    How Clean is your Pipe?

    I haven't got any issues with this quote, but to talk about natural rights is the same as talking about natural interest rates: this is totally nonsense. All rights are rather contractual and not inalienable. You cannot claim a murderer, for instance, has the same right to liberty, life and...

    How Clean is your Pipe?

    I never said "rimming the hole," but just the cake. :lol:

    How Clean is your Pipe?

    A pipe cleaner is good enough to keep unwanted dirt, or moist, at bay. You all know I mean "the use of abrasives" inside of your bowl or stem.

    How Clean is your Pipe?

    I am only after debating some ideas. And I think this is worth giving it a go, for a perfectly clean pipe tastes like hot air (no pun indented).

    How Clean is your Pipe?

    Well, that´s what I mean. I don't clean my pipes that way.

    How Clean is your Pipe?

    I like polishing my stems and bowls, but that has nothing to do with cleaning the inside. Some people use alcohol and what not, but I find this practice useless: I don't want my pipes to taste like surgical stuff.
