    Still After My Lost Favorite Squashed Tomato Pipe

    I've narrowed down the search for a replacement of my favorite missing pipe- It was a 'squashed tomato' style, and exactly like this one that sold on Ebay- I've seen variations in the Stanwell squashed tomato designs, but this one was spot on identical to my long lost favorite pipe. Anyone here...

    Smoking a pipe vs cigarettes or cigars

    I love smoking my pipe, and enjoy a good cigar. But I have NEVER liked cigarettes. They just taste disgusting to me. What struck me are some advantages smoking a pipe has over cigarettes: (1) A pipe bowl is a much tastier, lasts longer, and is sweeter smoke than a cigarette (2) Smoking a pipe...

    Any female pipe smokers out there?

    As an increasing number of women have taken to cigar smoking in recent years- i'm curious if there are many women who smoke pipes. i'll be honest- i have never seen a woman in person smoke a pipe. I assume there must be female pipe smokers out there. Perhaps it's a regional thing, all the pipe...

    Do you prefer large,medium or small pipes?

    I tend to prefer medium sized pipes- The giant pipes tend to be a bit cumbersome- Here is tiny pipe made of horn I recently acquired, i'm not sure what I think of it:

    How do others react to your pipe?

    The feeddback from others regarding my pipe has been fairly positive, but of course my folks want me to quit today. Some friends like my pipe quite a bit, remarking how nice it smells- I never blow smoke in people's faces, as cigarette smokers often do- so have seldom been bashed by anti smoking...

    A pipe with my morning cofee

    I tend to smoke my pipe at night, after a long day of work- But this week have started smoking one pipe bowl with my morning coffee- and really enjoy it. Is it best to keep my pipe smoking later in the day? Do you smoke at certain times, or when the mood hits you?

    How many pipe humidors do you own? What is the best brand of pipe humidor?

    It occured to me as my pipe collection grows, perhaps i should buy additional humidors. Right now I have one. Chosing a pipe humidor is as challenging as choosing a pipe- I stay away from humidors made of glass- I like ones with a cork interior, and can hold pipes along the outside. I assume...

    Any tips for the new or fumbling pipe smoker?

    I've smoked my pipe off and on since 1998, and I made a few mistakes along the way- such as cramming too much tobbacco in my pipe and smoking it too hot. If there was any remaining tobacco in the pipe when i was done with my smoke, I'd leave it in the pipe- and would finish it next time, topped...
