    Little Pipe Stand Project

    I picked up this little pipe stand at a flea market and started to sand and polish. I don’t really display my pipes, but bored, and it’s cold and snowy out… It’s a Lord Chesterfield w/amber glass humidor in walnut, I believe. I might stain it black?

    Opposite to recent thread, entitle: Christmas Song Elimintaion What are some of your favorite Christmas songs? I have a few, but one that ranks up there is The Christmas Song, aka, Chestnuts Roasting On An Open Fire, by Nat King Cole. Pretty cool, or hot, story behind the song: It was written...

    PSA: Review Your Cable Bill

    Our Comcast bill went from $295 to $320 in December without notice. Discovered that they added an unwanted 411 service (+$5), WiFi modem went up 50% (+$5) and miscellaneous BS fees (+$15), which CS Rep couldn’t explain. Waiting for a call back from a supervisor, but not holding my breath 😠

    2022 Savinelli Saint Nicholas ??

    Yes, it’s early, but it looks like the 2022 Saint Nicholas design was released. I like this year’s edition, and will certainly be picking one up. I’m sure that they’ll be available soon. https://b2b.savinelli.it/b2b_en/search/Saint%20nicholas

    Christmas in July ?

    I’m a Christmas guru, but of all this Christmas in July stuff is getting old. Nonetheless, it got me thinking about the Savinelli Saint Nicholas edition, which should be out in a couple of weeks (8/3 last yr).

    What Is Your Favorite Season… ???☃️

    … to smoke your pipe? I know that most enjoy smoking around the clock regardless of season or temperature, but I prefer the cooler months. I enjoy smoking outside on the deck, but the summers in the northeast are too hot and humid. If I do indulge, I tend to gravitate toward cigars and smoke in...

    Rattray's Exotic Passion Pipe Tobacco

    I’ve been wanting to try this blend for a couple years and it always seems to be out of stock everywhere. Has this blend been discontinued, or maybe I just have bad timing? I’ve also seen it called Exotic Orange… not sure if it’s different, or just relabeled.

    Tongue Bite Aid

    I’ve noticed several threads lately regarding tongue bite. The general consensus for prevention is to dry the tobacco more, slower the cadence, lightly packed, etc., but little has been said to remedy the effects after it has occurred. I seldom experience tongue bite, but on those occasions I’ve...

    C&D Founding Fathers??

    I purchased about 20 2oz bulk blends a year ago and finally got around to trying some of them a week ago. Hit or miss on a few so far, but was pleasantly surprised how much I enjoyed Founding Fathers. It’s blend of burleys and black cavendish with a faint fruity taste. If you’re looking for a...

    Gawith Hoggarth & Co. Dark Bird's Eye ??‍♂️

    I recently picked up a lb of this stuff based on good reviews. First bowl I hated… second was OK… third… meh. It definitely has a nic hit, but that wasn’t a priority. I wasn’t going to throw it out, so I mixed some of it up with a few aromatics and it has a nice balance. Moral of the story: If...

    Identity Theft ?

    My wife and I, as well as numerous members of our community, have been targeted for identity theft. Twice over the past 3 months we received credit cards and checks in the mail from two separate banks that we never contacted. We’re pretty guarded about our personal information, but a quick...
