    Anybody Want Some Restoration Work?

    I was going through pipes and giving them all a deep clean last night since I’ve decided to start smoking again and I came across two grenaded Savs. I’m sure my plan was to restore them, but I don’t have the time these days. I’d happily pay someone to give it a go, or will send tobacco in...

    Need a Peterson Recommendation

    I think I’m gonna break down and buy my first system pipe. I’ve always kinda been on the fence about them, but I think I’m about to remove any doubts, buy one, and just figure out if I like it or not. I’m not super worried about the shape being something that catches my eye right now, more...

    Went to a B&M Today

    And it was hilarious. It was noted as having any tobacco product you may want. When I walked in, I was greeted with numerous glass pipes and the smell of incense. We know where this is going. But, since I was already in there, I asked if they had any pipe tobacco. “Oh yeah, we’ve got...

    MM Elf Cobbit

    I’m not sure why - although I’m a fan of LOTR, it’s not a serious thing with me - but something about this pipe is perfect. The size, shape, weight, etc. That said, I bought a new one about two weeks ago and just jumped on their website tonight to check on something else and noticed there was...

    2021 Eight State Burley

    Nearly two years after they launched it, I stumbled upon a handful of tins I didn’t know I had. How was it received? It’s launch coincided almost perfectly with my departure; however, as a burley lover and having recently returned, I’m interested to hear current opinions on it and how it compares.

    Hello Again!

    It’s been a while. Figured I’d give a quick update for anyone interested; apologies to those who aren’t. I got laid off. Took a year and a half off after that since I was in school full-time. Found a different job after my wife had to resign to student teach. She finished her MS and got a...

    Tea

    Years ago, when I was just starting out with pipes, I polled you guys to find good drink pairings. At the time, I was expecting bourbons and the lot, as was my interest back then (hence the screen name). I recall a surprisingly large portion of the responses being in favor of pairing tobacco...

    Kayak Fishing?

    Seems like fishing is a pretty popular hobby within this group. Do any of you guys fish from a kayak? If so, want to share some photos? I’ve been bitten by the bug. We bought our first two kayaks a week ago, took them out, and I’m already upgrading. Just curious about your experiences...

    Notification Error?

    I just got a notification that a member had quoted my post; however, when I clicked on it, he had quoted someone else’s post?

    @BROBS

    Hey man - I just logged into eBay and there was a big banner on there saying they have 60% off Adidas stuff right now. To be fair, it’s a Mother’s Day sale, so it’s likely only stuff for older women. However, I don’t think that’d exclude crushed velvet track suits, so you’re probably still...

    ASVAB Scores, Other Veteran Related Documents

    Veterans - when @craig61a said that his ASVAB scores were probably buried in a landfill 45 years ago, I realized that not everyone knew you can get most of your military related documents online, including and ERB/ORB that shows test scores, DD-214’s, travel orders, etc. Don’t know how useful...

    The Masters

    Is anyone else watching? What do you think? Who’s gonna win this thing? Who do you WANT to win this thing? Enjoying a bowl while you watch? Let’s hear it!

    Florida Folks!

    My parents are moving to Jupiter, FL and my old man is a cigar diehard. Can and of you guys down there make any recommendations on a good B&M in the area?

    I Finally Got One!

    For about the last year, I've been looking for a birth year (1985) Dunhill to add to my collection. I understand that there's a certain novelty aspect to having one of these, and that it doesn't necessarily mean that it's going to be special in any way other than that aspect. But, that doesn't...

    Savinelli Riserva

    What can y’all tell me about this line? How does it compare to the Giubileo d’Oro’s? Major differences? Are they even a thing? Thanks!

    Meer Commission

    As some of you saw, I was interested in commissioning a carver to make a figural meerschaum pipe for me. I’ve wanted a Dall Sheep pipe for some time, but there isn’t really anything close to a realistic option available. There are rams, to be sure, but none of them are Dall rams. One of the...
