    STRESS!!!

    I am no expert by any means, but the practice living in the present moment has helped me immensely. As Sturgill Simpson says, ". . . turn off the T.V.

    ***What Are You Drinking*** May 2021

    ***What Are You Smoking, May 2021?***

    It's been a hell of a school year. With only a week left with the godless heathens otherwise known as seventh graders, I figured I would treat myself.

    What Turned You on to Pipes?

    When I first started working at my local B&M, I was a cigar guy through and through. Although the shop sold mostly low to mid range basket pipes, with the occasional Nordings, a few Petersons, and once in a while a Castello or two, along with our "House Blends" (random mixtures of aromatics the...

    Something Better than Ziploc Bags?

    You could always keep a small, travel-size Boveda pack if using a Ziplocs; however, as mentioned previously, your best bet would be a tobacco pouch or airtight travel tin (don't let the "stoner" stigma fool you... they've created an entire market of inconspicuous items that work just as well...

    Howdy from Austin, TX!

    Welcome, and greetings from the Texas Coast. How are things in California-Lite? :ROFLMAO: Just kidding, my friend.

    Ernest Hemingway's Pipe...

    Not even remotely trying to be harsh on OP, but this comment had me in hysterical laughter. Regardless, OP, can't go wrong with either of the two greats in Faulkner and Hemmingway!

    Warhorse Green Reverts to Cake Status!

    I always prefer a firm plug. There is something nostalgic about it, and the prep allows me to slow down enjoy my ritually a little more. As far as flavor is concerned, I am by no means a connoisseur and cannot tell much of a difference in flavor though.

    What’s Your Best Cigar Vitola? Why?

    I stay within the typical Corona-Robusto range; however, if a new blend is out that I have yet to try, and the company offers it, ALWAYS Lonsdale, as it is the used as the "benchmark" when devising new blends. Traditionally, when developing new blends, farmers and manufactures utilize this...
