Pipe problems!
Thanks, Sable I didn't know about the carburetor thing. I knew that Kaywoodie made some excellent pipes back in the first half of the 20th century, using very old briar, but I did not know that they mass produced so many.- allan

Jim's Bald Headed Teacher Review
The best way I can put this is 'I knew this tasted too good to be without some topping", and that's why I called Rich. If one were to believe him, (which I would really like to do) than it must be the casings and the processing, I guess. I love this tobacco, and I don't even want to think that...- allan

Chris Askwith Made Me An Allbriar Pipe - (pic heavy)
Troy I enjoyed your 'ramblings'. Several times I have found myself wondering if I should keep a pipe or not, so I completely understand. Congrats on going with a bold new idea=a briar stem. I never would have thought of that. Good luck with it -

Chuck Norris Memes, Anyone?
I did get to see Chuck Norris and Bruce Lee at the Karate national finals in Madison Square Garden, i believe it was 1969. Bruce Lee did a demo with Chuck in the ring. Bruce Lee, for real, was as fast as lightning.- allan

Dunhill Controversy
Mike I had always thought that 'hand wrought' was the definition for partial hand and partial power tool/machine made items in the craft world. To be hand made, no pre-formed or die struck or castings could be used.- allan

My days of lackadaisical outdoor pipe smoking are ending.

James Upshall "Old England" Grade
Randy My question was in regards to the age of the briar, say, compared to Barlings and how long upshall kept the wood stored for it to be fully dried out. Since upshall obtained their briar in the 1980's, I was wondering how old could the briar be? I own several upshalls and I love the way...- allan
