    ***What Are You Smoking, Nov. 2024?***

    Do You Have Any Pipes You DON'T Smoke?

    I have a few unsmoked pipes. All of my unsmoked pipes are in my closet, and the smoked ones live in the garage cellar. This is a morta zulu by Davorin in Croatia. I may break it in with some Pirate Kake someday.
