    Bah, Humbug!

    I've had tickets for The Who concert here in Kansas City for months and they announced this evening that it's been postponed. Roger Daltrey has swollen vocal cords. Getting old is a bitch.

    Vintage Three Nuns Anyone?

    At that price it's over $20 a bowl. http://www.ebay.com/itm/BELLS-THREE-NUNS-CUTTER-TOP-TWO-OUNCE-SEALED-TIN-PURCHASED-IN-1937-PIPE-STUD-/391027840619?ssPageName=ADME:B:WNA:US:1653

    It's out of my price range. http://www.ebay.com/itm/131395884182?_trksid=p2055119.m1438.l2649&ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT

    eBay Down

    eBay is down. Apparently the problem started around 6:30 EDT and is worldwide. Gonna be a lot of pissed off people over this one.

    Weber Wind Pruf

    My guess would be that this one dates back to the 1930s. I've never seen one quite like it. http://www.ebay.com/itm/Vintage-WEBER-Patent-Wind-Pruf-Old-Standard-US-Estate-Pipe-bossa-nova-us-/271599236313?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item3f3c9374d9

    4th of July

    The society we live in has become jaded, we have forgotten the reasons that this country came to be.

    Bog Oak Pipes for $69.95

    For those who have wanted to try a bog oak pipe but have been scared off by the price, P&C has a pretty sweet deal on some factory-made bog oak pipes. The special is for today only. They're not in the same class as artisan-made mortas, but at this price it's hard to pass up...

    2013 Kansas City Pipe Show Pics

    As always, this is a great show. My only complaint was that there were fewer estate pipes than in that past. Plenty of new stuff to drool over though.

    I remember reading ads for these when they came out, but this is the first one I've ever seen: http://www.ebay.com/itm/1982-DUNHILL-SPACE-SHUTTLE-PIPE-w-AD-HEAVY-18K-GOLD-Band-EXTREMELY-RARE-/310683258971?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item48562a505b

    Bleak Outlook at P&C for Canadian Smokers

    When I placed my order at P&C on Monday, I asked about the prospect of renewed shipping to Canada. Bill said that they're looking at the situation, but that it's unlikely that they'll be doing any international shipping in the near future.
