    What Peterson Should I Get?

    I say, Get 2! Get one that is really nice and then get a beat up estate Peterson. One you take care of and one you can abuse. You will learn far more from the one you can abuse! Same with guitars. I have one that I love and sounds fantastic! However, I'm much more attached to the one I'm not...

    ***What Are You Smoking, March 2024?***

    My new Dunhill 4303 and my own English blend. I feel so... relaxed and sophisticated while smoking this thing. It hasn't helped my looks or grammar though....

    With Whom are You Smoking?

    There's not much better! Cigars with my brother is a fantastic evening.

    With Whom are You Smoking?

    Here in Wichita KS we have the Eighth Day institute and their Hall of Men. It's rooted in the Eastern Orthodox tradition. Same idea. They get together with pipe, cigars and philosophical discussions. I haven't been yet but would love to go!

    My Unintentional System Pipe

    I Can't do that. It would just be another regular old pipe again. A screwed up pipe that works better than a lot of regular pipes fits my personality. Love my special pipe just the way it is!

    Aren’t You Too Old For That?

    I already posted here once but I thought about another thing I'm probably too old to do. I mow my lawn in nothing but a thong. Things you can do when you live in the country!

    Aren’t You Too Old For That?

    Hah! I had of those! Emerald green with a sparkly yellow banana seat. Broke my front tooth on the front tire when I went over the handlebars! Loved that bike!

    My Unintentional System Pipe

    Searock Fan I know you're correct. However, I'm a "close your eyes & pull the trigger" kinda guy. I do welding and ornamental iron, not woodwork. Waaaaaaaaaay too much thinking ahead in woodworking! With steel, if it doesn't turn out right, get out the cutting torch, chop it off, weld on a new...

    Aren’t You Too Old For That?

    Painting my nails. In my 50s. I've been doing it for 15 years & if I don't do it people wonder what wrong.

    My Unintentional System Pipe

    A while back I read Rick Newcombe's book where he talks about enlarging the draft hole in your pipe. So I said to myself, "Hmmm. I'm going to try that." So, I did....I took out my trusty, cheap, no-named shop pipe, found the appropriate bit in my collection, pulled off the stem, and commenced...

    Did I Make My Tobacco Angry With Me????

    No it's just 98% tobacco. It's like store-bought ice cream. I whipped in 2% air just to fill it out. And it was cool there too, not hot!

    Did I Make My Tobacco Angry With Me????

    So, I've blended my personal mixture. This is one I have posted in the past but with updated modifications: 59% Drucquer & Sons, Ltd Levant Mixture, 25% C&D Izmir Turkish and 14% Cyprian Latakia. I love it! It's full, rich, and smooth. I have NEVER had any problem with tongue or mouth...

    Hay & Molasses...

    Hmm. I did not know that. Might have to modify the question. A lot of times the casings muddel the flavors for me. I would like to find a tobacco that produces those flavors on its own.

    Hay & Molasses...

    Hah! I've got plenty of hay on my little farm here is KS! I might have to try that.

    Hay & Molasses...

    Kentucky nougat sounds great! But I'm not sure that I have 10 years worth of patience!
