    What are You Watching? [2024] Please Rate 1-5

    Slow Horses. S4 Ep 4. The usual, 5/5, AppleTV. The fun thing for me was to discover Mr. Smith is in the show! Well, Hugo Weaving, the actor who played Mr. Smith is also in this one. His voice and enunciation was recognizable in an instant.

    1920 Amber-stemmed Dunhill Without a White Spot

    Yes, and since it'd be fully obscured, not real useful as a guide to perfect clocking....

    1920 Amber-stemmed Dunhill Without a White Spot

    I had hoped that little quip would be seen as amusing. And there are a few ivory dots in the wild, just not original to Dunhill.

    It was, of course, ivory, no?

    And anotherbob. No, but I have a regular churchwarden, a real pipe I've had for decades. Haven't smoked it in that long.

    Luxury Estates or Excellent New Pipes?

    Hardly anyone is making enough money buying and selling pipes to call it a second income. And no one who has spoken publicly has made pipes an "investment" with decent returns. And, yes, there are real market forces at play, just not of the tsunami class.

    The Value of Handling Tobacco?

    Couple of notes: I don't go to a thesaurus or other source for big words. They are stored in my memory banks, crowding out important information. I didn't mean to call anyone names, just issued a challenge to back up a statement. And the only piling on I see is ribbing regarding the use a word...

    The Value of Handling Tobacco?

    If you are a stand up guy, you'll back up your statements. There are and will be penalties for obstreperous behavior.
