    If I had money to burn.

    I would surely be collecting her pipes. http://www.qualitybriar.com/pipes/manduela/

    Size does matter.

    I'm a clencher and thus a small pipe lover. I have sold off or traded most of my larger pipes for smaller. Still have a couple large Savinellis that don't see much action because, as I said, I'm a clencher. Having recently been reunited with SG Squadron Leader, I have been smoking it steady...

    Better than television.

    I love doing these kind of jobs. I know that just up the street is constant entertainment. We are tearing down a school. My operator is one of those guys that can pick up a quarter from atop a pile of sand with one tooth of the excavator. Great pipe smoking entertainment. Went through 2...

    Speaking of Bertrand Russel and pipe smoking...

    Interesting little compilation of facts about some famous pipe smokers. http://www.nata.gov.lk/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=57:of-famous-tobacco-smokers&catid=37:news-informationarticles&Itemid=18

    One draw back to recieving a new pipe in the mail.

    Got the Luciano apple today and I am so rediculously pleased with everything about it. Looks beautiful, feels very very nice in the palm of the hand, feels great in the teeth, no coating in the bowl (big bonus for me). One thing wrong...I'm still sick with this wretched virus and I can't...

    PAD FUNDS ! ! !

    I was sure I was going to have to pay the government this year, but I just got back from my accountant's office and it turns out that I am getting $350.00 back. I smell a Dunhill, Castello or several less expensive pipes in my near future. All the Ardors I wanted have already sold or I would...

    how to clean charring around rim of pipes.

    I think I have asked this question before, but I have a memory like a sieve so I am asking again. I have a couple Savinellis that I want to get rid of because they are just too heavy for me and just don't fit my tastes any more. Only issue with either of them is a bit of charring on the rim...

    PAD strikes again...I just couldn't say no...

    I was totally defenseless against this pipe. The shape, the size, the weight, the blast, the finish...etc...seems to hit all my "you must have me" criteria. Luciano blasted bent apple (One Star)

    After further review...

    It has come to light, after much research, that I very much enjoy both 1Q and corn cob pipes. 1Q is no earth shattering tobacco to be contemplated or anyting, but it is extremely easy to smoke, soft, sweet, smells good and smoulders at a very nice rate. And, it has that nostalgic grandpa's...

    Kudos to Greg Pease...

    I am nearing the end of a tin of Telegraph Hill and I have to say, my hats off to Greg Pease for this master piece. I find your Virginas to be very much like a fine cigar experience. The pipe to me, however, seems to lend a certain civility to such a tobacco. A truely luxurious smoking...

    Review of Fribourg And Treyer Cut Virginia Plug

    The presentation in the tin is something to behold. The flakes are perfectly formed with no frayed edges and sliced very thin. Just handling them gives you the impression that you are handling something fine into which someone, with very exacting standards, put a lot of passion. The smell in...

    Been a while...

    Hi all. Been silent here for a while but I'm back. I had some passport issues, then some health issues and now business is keeping me rather friggin' busy. Sorry for the absence but things happen. I will be posting frequently again. Hope you all had a great holiday. Thanks so much to my...

    Just checking to see if my avatar changed

    I'll be damned if I can make heads or tails of the "change your avatar" feature on this site. I want to see what comes up here and then, depending on the results, ask Kevin a bunch of questions.

    Old friend meets new friend and voila...a perfect smoke.

    Finally received my new Mastro De Paja rusticated straight apple. Along with it came a tin of Hamborger Veermaster and a tin of Reiner Long Golden Flake. I have been yearning for a tin of Hamborger Veermaster as I haven't had one in years. Smokingpipes finally got it back in so I snagged a...

    Anyone from smokingpipes.com on this site?

    I think tedswearingen is from smokingpipes.com no? I placed an order with smoking pipes last Friday and recieved no order confirmation or shipping notice and they are not answering my emails. I shudder to think that someone else might get that beautiful Mastro De Paja that I am so in love with...

    Last PAD purchace till after Xmas...I think.

    I thought that after buying that Stanwell a few weeks ago my PAD would be satisfied and under control for the remainder of 2010. When I saw this pipe on a Smokingpipes.com update last week I nearly fell off my chair. I have been looking for so much of what this pipe has to offer for so long...

    Alright this isn't funny any more damnit...

    Why is it that as soon as you yield to your PAD and swear off pipe purchasing for at least a few months that a new totally one of a kind pipe comes along that is priced just under $100.00 and begs you to buy it with puppy dog eyes? ! ! ! At this point I am only buying xmas gifts for me this...

    Review: W.O. Larsen Signature Vintage Mixture.

    This is one of those rare aromatics that tastes just like it smells. The tobacco itself is so good that I would smoke it uncased if they made such an animal. It is basically a toasty black cavendish mixture to which a little Virginia has added a nice high end tangy sweetness and a measure of...

    Bare wood or carbonization?

    I understand why they carbonize the inside of bowls but I'm more of a "work for all things great" kind of guy. I very much prefer a bare briar to any sort of pre carbonization. It does take longer to break in a pipe, but I like the taste of the fresh briar charring towards the end of a bowl in...
