    My new "Fred"

    Finally got myself a meer. African meer probably is not as good of quality as Turkish.. but this one I had to have! I have a few Kiko meer lined pipes that I use a lot and enjoy the way they all smoke. Unsmoked :)

    Made in America

    4rth of July and I got a rant. Not good, I know. I always try to buy American on what I have a choice though I live abroad. If it was not for customs fees, availablity etc. I would be collecting and smoking some American made pipes too. Well, my rant goes like this, I'm off for my two week shift...

    50's fridge = humidor?

    Ok, I've finally got myself a 1950's fridge. Well it's a freezer but I've always wanted one! It's like having a classic car right inside your home, lol. When I shut the door it feels like I'm shutting the door to a 53 Caddy. I love the curved style. On to my point, it does need a new start relay...

    and and and

    There is a pipe dealer online in America. He has a pipe I'd really like to purchase so I started reading his homepage. I've read the introduction over and over till it makes my head spin. Makes me wonder if the guy is legit or some kind a spaz. Heck, come to think of it, even his pipe...

    The Barbershop

    Talked to my Dad on the phone and our old barber passed away, he cut my Grandpa's hair, my Dads first hair cut and mine, he cut my nephews hair for the first time too. Old funny nice guy that talked your ear off while a cig dangled from his mouth. Played the guitar or harmonica waiting on...

    The World is Backwards

    Been thinking.. The best rapper is white. The best golfer is black. The French says the US is arrogant. The Germans don't want to fight. The Russians are calling for diplomacy. The most anti-war president ever elected started a new war. All the Iranians I meet are fanatics.. fanatically PRO...

    Misleading ebay

    Ok, I saw something on ebay that I thought was misleadig or confusing for a potential pipe buyer. Out of curiosity alone, I contacted the seller, which it seems is the actual pipe maker. He sent me a message back stating it is for "images" of him making a pipe. Tell you what, I would not smoke...

    Latakia on fire

    I was just wondering, with all the sht going down over there, could there be a disruption of latakia being shipped out, rising latakia prices, or is it that the companies that buy latakia already have such a large quantity stockpiled that it has no effect on the latakia market?

    tobacco tins the way you want them?

    I have been in contact with the Scandinavian Tobacco Group's Marketing Department regarding tobacco tins. As the law stands today, it is not possible to wrap the tin with an outer wrapper and have an undisturbed tin inside. All the warning lables and pictures of bleeding orgons, surgeries,etc...

    pipe smoking video

    An idea I think would be great for the whole pipe smoking community is that the pipe experts on this site, and their are plenty even if they wont admit it, make a pipe video together. A starters video for example. Buying, selecting, care,tobacco sortiments, collecting,.. All on ONE video. CD or...

    Are All Pipe Cleaners the Same?

    I always just buy the cheapest available, but their are many kinds. Are certain pipe cleaners better than others? Some are also advertised as all natural without dyes or whatnot, should I be concerned with buying the cheapest and them leaving something behind in my pipes? Or, is a pipe cleaner...
