    Threaded Albatross extension stem. What to do with it?

    I did apologize, and with that I bow out of this group. I thank you all for your wisdom, and comradery.

    Threaded Albatross extension stem. What to do with it?

    Sorry, I didn't mean to put such a glum spin on this thread. It just kind of came out. Again, Sorry Everyone.

    Threaded Albatross extension stem. What to do with it?

    I think I heard at one time, or another that the Albatross are the spirits of sailors who have passed. I lost a son to the Navy; I would like to believe that...

    Threaded Albatross extension stem. What to do with it?

    Are these birds protected under the UN Protected Species (which the US is a signatory to)? If so, then you are stuck with it; you can't trade it, or sell it. I know, they're kind of like sparrows, they're everywhere, but... What do you think - mso489?

    Why Is Your Stash The Best Of All Possible Options?

    When the light of a thousand suns shine down upon my home, and the contents of my cellar are instantaneously vaporized I shall inhale deeply knowing that I am dying a happy man. Yes, I have to beat it to the punch, though. Ok, now I can’t leave my cellar! Well, so much for showers, and such...

    Poor Excuse For A Review.

    "Black Frigate comes in a tin. Haggis comes in a tin as well. " LOL!!!!

    Poor Excuse For A Review.

    Well said @deniz! An honest review is the most important thing to help other smokers, but if I buy something that I abhor I won't say anything. Like so many other moms have said; "If you can't find anything nice to say, then keep your yap shut." If I find something that is below par, but can...

    What Music Are You Listening To? ~ August 2017

    @philobeddoe - Hendrix!!!! Right now I'm listening to my wife scream at me to get off the f###ing computer. Later...

    Packin' A Pipe

    Often I see when a noob has a problem with his/her pipe the response is: "you're not packing it correctly, you need to pack it like this, or you need to pack it like that." The responses are often very correct. I was sitting on the back deck this afternoon and doing my favorite thing, smoking...

    Do You Collect Anything Other Than Pipes and Tobacco?

    @nevadablue - When I first looked at the model I thought, that is a nice looking piece, then I saw the dime! Holy crap! That's some fine work! Good Job!

    Twin Flow Pipe

    @snagstang - Thank you for the information! @tuold - When I was a kid I loved seeing the Mail Pouch ads painted on the barn sides! My Mom would take me to the store to do the shopping, and those colorful pieces of art would stand out against the green of the country side, or the white of the...

    Lane Ltd...."10 Downing Street"....Any Substitutes?

    @deathmetal - Thanks for the recipe! I've gone through my inventory, and I see that I'm short some Red Virginia, and I'm also low on the Orientals. I guess I'm going to have to pay my on-line friends a little visit to restock (Oh Man, is that going to piss the wife off!). I would like to hold...

    Lane Ltd...."10 Downing Street"....Any Substitutes?

    Sorry @deathmetal, I meant to say the proportions of those ingredients. I would rather smoke something that I can put together myself rather than a pre-blend. That way when a pre-blend that I really like goes out of production I'm not hunting around. I do have a few mixtures that I make based...

    Lane Ltd...."10 Downing Street"....Any Substitutes?

    @deathmetal - You are so right. Some light English does make the world seem right. This blend that you came up with, is it a trade secret, or would you be able to share its ingredients? :-) I wouldn't mind mixing up a batch. I've tried my hand at coming up with some mixtures, but a...

    USPS prices going up

    My Post Lady really hates me :evil: ! For just about everything I order I always opt for the USPS, because it's cheap and efficient. So, on some days she has a bunch of packages to handle. Also, when I order something the estimated delivery date will be one thing, but it will always arrive...

    How Much Is to Much?

    You've got that right @chasingembers! I have an old Dr Grabow that smokes like a dream! :puffy:

    Smoking a 9mm pipe without a filter?

    oldgeezersmoker - Yup, you can't beat the old Q-Tip! I use them on a majority of my pipes. The only problem I have with them is my wife. She buys them for herself, and I raid her little stash for my use. She's always saying "go buy your own," and I just say back: "why should I when I have...
