    Just Learned Something Terrible

    So I don't even know the last time I smoked a pipe, let alone bought tobacco. However, while on twitter I learned that McClelland is no more!? Upon learning this I took inventory of my frog mortons... 1 100g sealed tin of across the pond, 1 jared tin of FM and 1 sealed tin of FM. These are all...

    Selling Pipes on eBay

    So I've come to a point in my life where I need money more than I need pipes & tobacco (a sad day, I know). I'm not even going to attempt to sell the tobacco on eBay as I know it'll probably get taken down immediately. Pipes however, I'm not sure about. Any recommendations or things I should...

    Flint Replacements

    So I bought an older lighter (allegedly from the 60's) from an antique shop two years ago. I've been meaning to get around to getting it in working order again. After some WD-40 I got the sparker wheel to turn and it takes fuel fine. But the flint is dead, which is my problem. If it was a zippo...

    Records

    I bought myself a record player a few months ago and only had two records. Well today I bought a Clearance Clearwater record. I listened to it while smoking and my first thought was 'this is how records are supposed to sound'. I have two modern records (from todays artists) and they pale in...

    Cigars From the Internet

    What has been your experiance with buying cigars from the internet? I want to try some but not sure how well they will keep in the mail. It's pretty cold here and the warm is 50 degrees F. My problem is I don't want them to dry out in transit. My humidor is also out of commission as I was having...

    How to Say Perique?

    So I was watching a show on the travel channel about a perique infuse alcohol. They were pronouncing it 'pear eek'. I've always been under the impression it was said ' per Q'. This is what happens when I don't have other pipe smokers to talk to.

    Cabelas

    So I happen to work at cabelas and every so often they give us cards to give out to family and friends. It gives you employee discount (up to 25% off) July 18-21. I have a extremely limited supply of these cards, so if interested PM me your address. I can only guarantee a card to the first 8...

    Pipe Shape and Nicotine

    Is it possible that smoking out of certain shape pipes will give you a bigger nicotine buzz than other shapes? I've smoked this blend before (H&H Louisiana Red) and have had no ill effects from it. Decided to have it as the first smoke out of a pipe I got for christmas. 1/4 of the way into the...

    Scare of a Life Time

    So yesterday I went out fishing with a friend. The water here is pretty cold. Something between 45-50 degrees so I could feel it even through my fleece lined jeans. Well anyway, we were going back into the stream and my friend went into the river a little ahead of me and I tried to follow except...

    Forehead Warmers

    Does Siracha Make Everything Better?

    So I was on youtube and came across this. I nearly died laughing. They 'tested' a bunch of different 'foods' and then rated it again with siracha. I've had it maybe once so I can't say it makes everything better. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pPlGvzH0pJI

    BB Gun's

    So due to my states new laws it's become crazy hard to get anything more powerful than a BB gun/air gun/airsoft gun without a permit... So at the ripe old age of 26 I bought myself a Daisy Red Rider BB gun at work (also my first step into the gun world). I took advantage of todays 'warm' weather...

    Mason Jar Question

    So yesterday I had a snow day from work so I took the opportunity to play some video games. Throughout the day I heard the lids making a popping sound. Today I checked them and for some of them the button in the middle is no longer up. Is this a good thing?

    Florida and Tobacco

    So I work retail and we're in a bit of down time so my managers boss said to put in for any vacation time and you'll probably get it. So I'm planning on taking a vacation down to Florida (cocoa beach/orlando area) and was wondering how tobacco friendly or more importantly pipe friendly they are...

    Latakia Flake

    I know we already have a (quite good) flake thread going and I've gone through every post but couldn't find what I was looking for. Recommendations for flakes with latakia. Virginia's just don't do it for me as I find them a bit bland.

    A Somewhat Late Present

    So for christmas I asked my father for a pipe. He went to a local tobacco shop and they didn't have the kind I wanted so I guess he spent a good deal of time working with someone trying to pick out a pipe for me... Well It was a bent partial sandblast pot sitter. Didn't really care for it so we...

    Tea

    I know some of us prefer tea over coffee. I being one of them. I've recently got into loose leaf tea and could use some recommendations. Or even some links/recommended sites. (PMed as I don't believe form rules allow for links to non-sponsor sites... even if it has to do with tea) I've been...

    Moving With Pipes

    I'm sure a few of you have had to move with your collection of pipes and tobacco. I have to do just that in a few weeks and aside from a few random items I'll need my pipes are all I have left to pack. I'm also not sure how I should pack them. I was thinking of wrapping the pipes and tobacco...

    Can anyone suggest a pipe reamer? I recently bought 3 pipes from a antique store (thread to come later) and need some recommendations. Also some general tips for cleaning up well smoked pipes.
