    Russians Must Love Latakia...

    To quote from a BBC news artical - "Russia's recent movements near Syria's city of Latakia suggest that Moscow plans to establish a "forward air operating base" there, the US has said." Pictures of Russian renovations to the air port in Latakia look like they are planning to stay for a while...

    I'm in the hospital ICU...

    I'm covered in full body chemical burns as a reaction to medicatio. They admitted me last night to the burn unit in the ICU. Starting to get better. Lots of drugs piped in via IV, wrapped up like a mummy in bandages. I also apparently was massively allergic to my two cats and dog. Cats are...

    24 Hours Without a Cigarette...

    I realize that this topic has got to be beaten to death a thousandfold by now on the forums, but I gotta do a bit of venting, and I have a conundrum that maybe y'all can help me solve. I've been wanting to quit smoking cigarettes for a couple of years now. I'm at a pack per week, which is down...

    Remove Bowl Coating On A New Peterson?

    My new Pete 999 Dracula (blasted) is in, and I've been pondering over how to go about actually breaking it in. This is my first time breaking in a brand new Pete. Inside the bowl, there is some kind of pre-carb, and I have read that Peterson dip-stains their pipes... meaning there is likely some...

    Lee posted this video on Facebook this morning, featuring himself, for an upcoming movie. "Father the Flame will be a feature-length documentary about slowing down, embracing life, and learning something in the process. It will also be about tobacco pipes." Father The Flame teaser clip I also...

    Halloween is coming!

    Halloween is likely my favorite holiday. I can freak people out, and binge on candy. Also make neighborhood kids happy. And watch scary movies nonstop. In honor of Halloween, I just scored a great looking Peterson Dracula 03 - with the craggiest blast I have yet to see on a Dracula. I also...

    Favorite Pipe For Your Escudo?

    So, I'm curious, now that some of us are receiving our Escudo orders from one of our favorite sponsors, 4noggins - what is your favorite pipe to load up Escudo in? Does one of your pipes really make it sing in a special way? Do you believe that a pipe of certain chamber dimensions, or perhaps...

    Off-Earth Pipe Smokers?

    Hey, you never know! Apparently research is beginning to calculate how many other planets within our galaxy could support life... whatever algorithm they are using seems to indicate at least 100 million other viable planets. Maybe, on one of them, Mixture 79 somehow tastes good due to trace...

    Any Forum Members Living In Alaska?

    I'm curious to know if we have any members living in Alaska? There is a full time job opening in Anchorage that I have been thinking of applying to (medical radiographic technologist.) If anyone can provide some background info on what living in Alaska is like, I'd love to hear it. I'm from...

    Aromatic Pipe Tobacco... Educate Me?

    When I first took up the pipe when I was 19, it was a heavily varnished Chinese made pipe made from some exotic (and apparently mildly toxic) wood, and some super chemically generic cherry tobacco. I got online, discovered the plethora of other blends (and pipes), and never went back to the...

    Hi Everyone

    Registered myself, and just wanted to say hello and thanks for having me. I've been enjoying the posts here. I'm 26, and from northern Illinois. I'm a military vet, have finished school to become a radiologic technologist (working the same old security job until I can find work doing that), and...
