    What Are You Listening To - April, 2024

    I know this is a pipe smoker's forum, but.... In browsing this thread it is apparent to me that many of us are music lovers. I not only like music, but I love "good sound". In other words, high quality reproduction. I could write a book about how to improve your stereo system, but this is...

    Whats the Coolest Smoking Pipe?

    I actually though of a hookah too, but didn't mention it because they are not practical to carry around and because... and this is a personal reason... to me they give even your favorite tobacco a "sickening" taste. Plus you're supposed to use these fruity. wet nasty concoctions instead of real...

    Cigars to Pipes...No Looking Back

    Remember, the pipe makes a huge difference in the way the tobacco tastes. A quality pipe can be a lifetime of enjoyment. Every day I smoke pipes I've had for over 50 years and have never regretted buying them. puffy

    Whats the Coolest Smoking Pipe?

    A calabash does smoke cool, but in my experience they tend to burn the tobacco rather fast. My meers all smoke cool. In briars I suggest a carved or blasted finish. The rough texture creates more surface area to cool the pipe and smoke, and it is cooler to hold.... plus they don't require...

    I'm Bloody Livid: Amazon Refuse to Sell Me a Set of Kitchen Knives.

    Ouch! You can bet I'm not the only one they did this to. Multiply the loss from me by thousands and I'll bet it costs them millions. I'm sure that isn't mentioned at board meeting either. puffy

    I'm Bloody Livid: Amazon Refuse to Sell Me a Set of Kitchen Knives.

    After living in one state most of my life I decided to move to a different state. A couple of months later I received an application for an American Express card and because I expected I would be doing a lot of traveling I figured it would come in handy. Sent in application and got back a...

    What are you watching? Movies? TV?

    Been watching THE GENTELMEN, a TV series from the UK. Guy Richie is behind it, so I expected it to be good. I'm not disappointed. puffy

    Tobacco Storage In Pouch?

    Haven't bought a new pouch in at least 40 years. Can't recommend one in particular, but make sure it's rubber lined and soft. Also, I wouldn't pay too much as guys seem to loose them. puffy

    My New, Old, Classic Cassette-Deck

    Sorry guys, but the cassette tape was a low-fi product from the start. About the only thing with worse sound was the 8-track. puffy

    Tobacco Storage In Pouch?

    If you ever decide to buy a good pouch, remember this. A roll pouch will keep tobacco fresher than a zipper pouch. puffy

    Things I found Thrifting

    Try Saturday morning garage sales instead. It takes persistence and patience, but you will find things you need or want. What you should look for is someone who has good stuff with the attitude they just want to get rid of it and are not trying the get top dollar. Check the on line web sites...
