    My Ebay Gambles

    Decided to gamble a week ago, and got a pipe from Ukraine, I figured if it turns out to be a good smoker, great, if not, I have a new Christmas ornament. I'm hoping my Irish Seconds pipe will be here today. And this is a random pipe a family member bought for me on Ebay, but was only $10...

    How Do You Like Your Steak?

    I was cooking a steak this evening about 10 minutes ago, and whenever people see me cook one I tend to get looks that ask if I'm crazy. Because generally when I eat a steak and it's not considered animal abuse, then it's too well done for me, meaning I like my steak almost walking off my plate...

    NUTS! And the Art of Manliness

    Was reading around, being bored. And I came across this article written about the Christmas of 1944. I'll take time out of this beautiful, albeit cold, time of year to think of what the world would be like without the men of action of yesteryear, in Europe and America alike. Cheers!

    Dottle

    Do you throw yours away, or give it the Sherlock Holmes touch and save it on your mantle for later?

    I have this crazy idea

    Next March or April, I will be planting Blackthorn bushes on the property here, and was thinking... Would Blackthorn make a good pipe? I haven't been able to find anything online about people trying to make a pipe out of blackthorn, or even talking about why it can't be done. Anyone here have...

    Fantastic Mr. Fox

    If you haven't seen it, consider watching it. It's a stop-animation film featuring the voices of George Clooney, Meryl Streep, Bill Murray, Owen Wilson, Michael Gambon, and others I can't name off the top of my head. Based off the childrens book.

    To buy or not to buy... :|

    An estate Smooth Canadian 'Irish Seconds' pipe. No chips or cracks, minor darkening around the rim and minor teeth chatter. Doesn't Peterson put Irish Seconds on a pipe because of a some sort of flaw? Usually cosmetic right?

    Unfinished Pipes & Churchwardens

    I was looking around on pipesandcigars.com and noticed they sell unfinished pipes. I was wondering if anyone has had any experience and could tell me how well they smoke, and how it looks when it darkens naturally. What are your opinions on churchwardens and which are good brands?

    Social Smokeing rest/tray

    I'm having a thought about taking a 1" thick round of cedar and turning it into a 2-6 pipe (depending on the diameter of the round) stand with an ashtray in the middle. Probably to be set on a coffee table for when friends are over and everyone's smoking a bowl together. Would many people here...

    New guy, saying, "Hi."

    Hey everyone, my father recently got me a Dr. Grabow Omega pipe as a gift cause he heard I was interested in getting into pipe smoking. Moving off cigarettes (as of a few weeks ago) and I don't like smoking cigars inside. Plus I hear pipe smoking is like beard fertilizer and mine's a bit patchy...
