    Security Asked Me To Move

    Jorge, If it is any consolation when he said "Spanish descent" I immediately thought Spaniard not Hispanic. I consider Hispanics to be the mixed race dark skinned Latin Americans while Spaniards are white Europeans. That's why I found it odd she would accuse Frank of racism.

    Once A Friend, Always A Friend

    Toby, I'm sorry that happened. Some people are just completely devoid of common sense and decency. It's a good thing for her that I wasn't in the pub to hear it. Frank, tell your friend to hang in there. I've been without a job before and the discouragement that can go along with it if you...

    My Dad Died Ten Years Ago Tonight

    Thanks, my friend. You may not talk a lot but what you just said is priceless.

    My Dad Died Ten Years Ago Tonight

    I made a double post and deleted it so here's a prayer in its place to very one of you who has lost a loved one too soon. God Bless.

    My Dad Died Ten Years Ago Tonight

    Same here. My grandpa died at 63 in 1977, my sister and I cried for weeks. I still don't understand. I just left the room for a while and my wife asked me if it was because of my dad, I told her I got smoke in my eyes and she didn't believe me. I really miss him.

    My Dad Died Ten Years Ago Tonight

    Thank you Teddy, Parents passing is expected but I can't imagine losing my wife, she's my best friend and soulmate, if she passed before me I think I would roll over and die. God bless you.

    My Dad Died Ten Years Ago Tonight

    I miss my dad terribly everyday. I'm 49 and I hope I live longer than dad did not because I want a long life but because I want my kids and grandkids (someday) to not suffer the loss my kids and I did when he died. Our oldest who is now 17 cried all the way home from Georgia to Indiana when it...

    My Dad Died Ten Years Ago Tonight

    We live in Georgia and my mom called me just before midnight 12/15/2004 from Indiana to tell me my father had died but I was asleep and confused when my wife woke me and handed me the phone. After I hung up the phone I went downstairs, poured a Scotch and tried to comprehend what the hell had...

    A Christmas Party at Scott McClellands Diablo Mansion

    I was thinking of the Victorian theme but good point. Perhaps Wilde stayed home and Lovecraft took his place but at any rate seems the type of party at which I would feel right at home.

    Is the Risk Worth It?

    This is good advice. Ask the seller about rust, pinholes, and other signs the seal may have been broken. If I felt with good confidence it was still sealed I would buy it if it wanted it. However, if the seal has been broken the tobacco will be dust.

    I'm About to Pull the Trigger on a Dunhill

    All I know is I can't wait to get it. I can always smoke it in a darkened closet in the upstairs bedroom to avoid being seen with it. :D

    Sasieni Specially Selected 8-Dot (1979) - Wow

    You maybe should have begged, borrowed, or stole to get the funds to buy that. I'll bet you never see another. Reminds me of a couple of guns I missed on. On the other hand, who knows how high the winner would have ran it up to.

    Once A Friend, Always A Friend

    My late father was a career police officer. 15 years or so ago we were home in Indiana for Christmas and my dad and I ran into a really tough looking hombre at the local convenience store. The guy was very friendly to us and told my dad that he was staying out of trouble, had a job, etc. My...

    A Christmas Party at Scott McClellands Diablo Mansion

    Appears a good time was had by all. Neat party, I half expected to see Oscar Wilde to pop up in one of the pictures at any moment, thanks for sharing.

    I Need Some Help Cleaning Up and Selling a Pipe

    Thanks for all the advice. I think I will just list it "as is". I haven't been a member long enough to list it so will do so later.

    Once A Friend, Always A Friend

    Joblessness is mentally devastating and can ruin one's quality of life. I hope things improve for your friend, Frank.

    Still smoking too hot after all this time - advice requested

    I agree completely. The only time there is a glowing ember in the bowl is when I light up. If you are getting a glowing cherry and then have to slow down when you notice it you are going too fast. My sipping produces little noticeable smoke actually (much less than smoking a cigarette would)...

    THE FRANK METHOD

    I've tried it but like you I couldn't really tell any difference. I first ran across it on a pipe blog, can't remember which one it was. Thanks for posting the video, I hadn't seen that before.

    A Cozumel Bus Ride!

    Ouch! From what I've heard Mexican jails are real hellholes.
