    A Small Quantum Of Solace: Hospice and Old Dark Fired

    The last week has been long. My wife and I have been deeply invested in helping care for a terminally ill neighbor and his wife who is a strong woman, but about at the end of her strength. During this time, we’ve actually been in their house more than our own. I’m retired and available to...

    Plug Etc Cutter - Alaskan Ulu with Matched Bowl

    I remember not too long ago some discussion here about plug cutters, vintage and antique ones, more available modern substitutes etc. I am certain someone mentioned Alaskan ulu-s. After trying a variety of unsatisfactory other knives and kitchen gadget substitutes, on a whim, I threw an ulu...

    Can't Believe I just did this... bought an accordion!

    All my life, I've had two unfulfilled bucket listers with music... accordion and bagpipes. (I'm a retired music teacher... primary instruments: piano/organ, brasses - playing tuba now on that front... and a whole shtload of folk instruments.) Somehow the winter doldrums just got to me and I...

    C&D King Cake -- Love it!

    This is the second time in a fortnight I've been bowled over with enjoyment on a new (to me) tobacco! Last time it was War Horse Green, this time C&D King Cake! I don't do reviews, I just do "enjoys". There are far more extremely well versed reviewers amongst our most excellent membership...

    All I Did Was Offer To Send A Little Tobacco Sampler/Balvenie

    This past week, I was touched by the inquisitive excitement and curiosity of one of our new members about the vast range or our beloved pipe tobaccos... so I PMed him and asked if he would like me to send him a wee sampler of the various genres and types etc. He said sure and then asked if I...

    First Timer on Ebay/Medico Silver Filigree

    Ok, so my wife says to me “do you think you could find a certain vintage Dr. Seuss Grinch mug for a gift for my boss for xmas?” “I’m sure I could, dear, but you know I’d probably have to get an ebay account or similar…” She KNOWS MORE THAN ANYONE ELSE that I have been many times afflicted by...

    My Mixture! Tobacco Heaven!

    Due to on-going health concerns, I'm allowing myself precious little pipe smoking. That being said, on these now rare occasions, I try to make them really count. So the other night for a first smoke in a couple weeks, I took a flake of Wessex Brown Virginia Flake and a flake of Solani Aged...

    Over the weekend, after reading much ado about Iwan Ries Three Star Blue, and ESPECIALLY C&D Black Frigate, I just HAD to order some to try! (from spc) They arrived Monday and now I've had the chance to smoke them both. I just wanted to say I'm off-the-scale, pin-the-needle, outa-da-park...

    Celebrating Generosity of Forum Members Again!

    I just have to give a HUGE "shout out" of thanks to cobguy for both inspiration AND generosity! Not too long ago, I had asked a question in one of the posts about what Moztek Strang was exactly, what it was like, and for something of a description of the blend. Lo and Behold, within a day, a...

    Anyone Else Ever Try/Like Sillem's Black?

    Anyone else ever try/like Sillem's Black pipe tobacco? I bought it on a drunken whimsy one evening several months ago thinking it sounded like vile unicorn puke. And I swear it is one of the most bizarro blends I've encountered... but, stunned beyond belief, I really have been totally...

    "Light Your Pipe" - Song

    After killing a thread about GLP's Temple Bar with the lyrics to The WhiffenPoof Song, it got me nostalgicating in fond but melancholy way. When I was in college in the last ice age, I belonged to a professional fraternity called Phi Mu Alpha Sinfonia. It was/is dedicated to the advancement of...

    A Perfect Pipe Lighter

    After responding to several lighter-oriented threads, it suddenly occurred to me that I was holding a glorious treasure in my hand that no one was talking about in this regard. Several months ago, the little metal strap across the top of my IMCorona Old Boy snapped. I had two Jetliner lighters...

    Advice From An Old Farmer

    A friend of mine sent me the below. I thought some of the fellers here might enjoy this as well! Advice from An Old Farmer Your fences need to be horse-high, pig-tight and bull-strong. Keep skunks and bankers at a distance. Life is simpler when you plow around the stump. A bumble bee is...

    A Funny Thing Happened On My Way To The Forum(via the doctor's office)

    The strangest thing happened yesterday at my family doctor’s office. I was having a “required wellness physical”, involving a megalithic monotony of “enhanced interrogations” and form-filling-outing ad infinitum, ad nauseam… health surveys, “risk assessments”, etc etc etc etc (And do you have...
