Stingers
My recommendation: Don't cut stringers on old pipes. Enjoy them for what they are then buy a new pipe.- Keitha

Stingers
I have a small Kaywoodies with the Stinger and just enjoy it for what it is. I don't smoke it all that often, I do think it's kinda cool though to occasionally dip into part of the pipe industry's history and try a novel concept, whether gimmicky or not.- Keitha

My Beginner Sampler Selections
Don't overlook some good Virginia/Perique blends (aka VaPers). Also explore different tobacco cuts: Penny Farthing is a Shag cut (very fine cut) that makes it easy to pack and stay lit.- Keitha

PipesandCigars.com issues?
They've done alright by me. I do order more from Smokingpipes, but still occasionally from P&C when they have something in stock.- Keitha

I Finally "GET IT" After 12 Years
Semois is a Belgian Burley grown in a very specific location. The shag cut is a very fine shag, and a great smoke - try it in a small pipe. This stuff is worth a try when you can find it - I love it. Tabac De La Semois: Le Petit Robin Shag cut Tabac De La Semois: Reserve du Patron Medium cut- Keitha

Do You Introduce Yourself to Other Pipe Smokers?
I suppose I would, but have not seen another pipe smoker in public. I saw an Old-Timer in a pick-up truck in Bozeman, MT heading the opposite direction as me, but didn't chase him down to talk.- Keitha

C&D From Beyond
I guess it's the "tater" in me, but I don't know what FOMO means: I"m sure there are plenty like me here that buy some of the limited releases and pass on others - depending on if the blend sounds good. I'm also sure that there are plenty of other blends very similar and just as good as these...- Keitha

C&D From Beyond
If I wasn't such a "tater", I would infer that you are calling a lot of us "gullible and of very low intelligence". It must be so cool to be smart enough to be above marketing hype.- Keitha

Kaywoodie Stinger Question...
I was about to disagree, but I think I get what you are saying. The ball "seals up" at the end of the shank and the draw if from the hole by the pen, then is pulled through the holes on the ball end. You have enlightened me!
