    Are Jet Flame Lighters Actually Bad?

    I was in Puerto Rico this week- wind blowing 15-20 on the beach. I have a dual flame lighter and couldn't get the soft flame to light. The torch saved it- it takes some technique to get it right....

    Hurricane Florence, Groan

    Looks like it's going to be the worst to hit that area in many years...We're flying Thursday morning from Sarasota, Fl to Newport RI for a boat show- it will be interesting to see how far we detour to miss the hurricane...

    Paris Pipe Maker Pierre Voisin "A La Pipe du Nord" pipe shop.

    I've been to La Civette, Les Pipes de Cogolin, and a la Pipe de Nord- Pipe de Nord was closed I think on Sunday and we missed the pipemaker when we went back the next day- you might want to call ahead to make sure you can catch him...:)

    I smoke outside- when I come in- it's time for a shower, brush the teeth, a little mouthwash, shave any excessive growths of hair from the chest and back, and then my wife is happy to see me...

    When You Tell Your Doctor You Smoke a Pipe...

    One of our businesses is insurance. Whatever you tell your physician will end up in your medical record and absolutely can and will be used against you by underwriting if you apply for life or health insurance. I get three questions at every physical- 1) Still a non-smoker? "I absolutely hate...

    Charcoal Grill Advice for a Newbie?

    We're getting very close to a discussion of religion when we start talking grilling, smoking, and barbeque. I personally worship at the altar of the Big Green Egg. This one I've had for 12 years- 160 lbs of ceramic that you can heat to 700 degrees for steak or pizza or run at 225 degrees for...

    Artisan "Shop Pipes"

    I'm with Sasquatch on this one- a man's gotta eat....I heard from several guys at the Chicago show who weren't selling the $500-600 pipes they had always sold in the past. I've seen a couple of excellent carvers in the past couple of months who are no longer full time pipe makers. I did see a...

    Beers, Ribs, & Pipes With The Family...

    Now this was interesting- Greta and I have been together for over 10 years and my oldest son Brian and her oldest son Jack have never met. Both doing well in their lives- Brian just returned from Hawaii serving as a Mandarin linguistics analyst for the Air Force and Jack with a very successful...
