    Old Dominion Cobs

    Living in Southwest Virginia, I just had to have a pipe hand-crafted in my home state. When I read an article about the Old Dominion Pipe Company on here and how good their cobs were, I ordered me some. Now, I love cobs, but I am wary of quality and therefore only smoke Missouri Meerschaum. I...

    Cherry Picking

    I was watching television the other day when I was reminded of the reason that I rarely watch it anymore. This commercial came on and it floored me. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fuE4vqGAlv4 Now the man in the video is quite obese. How long has he been that big? I do believe this is a very good...

    Pipe Making For A Beginner

    Lately, I have been really wanting to try my hand at making pipes. I think it would be a neat experience and I won't know if I have a talent for it or not until I try. The problem is that I have no knowledge of the subject and not much money. I have tried to look up information on making pipes...

    Peter Stokkebye Luxury Navy Flake

    I first bought this particular blend about a year ago and it quickly became my go-to blend. This navy flake is a virginia/perique blend that has a mild and sweet flavor, perfect for any time of day. When I first got it and smoke my first bowl, I was rather disappointed as I could taste very...

    Lesson Learned And Strange Coincidence

    A few months ago my grandmother and my mother went to Williamsburg Pottery. I asked them if they found any of those colonial tavern pipes to bring me one back. I was very pleasantly surprised when my they did get me one as my parents are extremely critical of my smoking to say the least. Now the...

    Trip To Store And PAD

    Well I have been looking for a job recently and a friend had told me a B and M close to my house was looking for some part-time help. Although mostly a cigarette store, they do have a few pipes and some pipe tobacco. Going in there occasionally and having a love of pipes, I reckoned I had as...

    Half And Half Ain't Half Bad

    Well I just finished the pouch of Half and Half I bought a few months ago. I have to say, I really like the stuff. While it doesn't contain the highest quality tobacco, it does deliver a flavorful and consistent smoke. It is slightly sweet and delicious down to the bottom of the bowl. It is not...

    Update On My Grandfather

    I posted before on my grandfather having to have surgery and I said I would keep everyone posted. Thank you all again for all the prayers and nice comments. They really mean a lot. My Papa is going into surgery early this morning. They are taking out his bladder, prostate and lymph nodes. He has...

    A Taste of Summer

    Well Spring is underway and Summer is fast approaching, so that means that cicadas should be out and about here shortly. Surely everyone has heard the beautiful music they play or have caught them for bait. I saw on the news the other night that some folks eat them and of course I got it in my...

    Lunting In The Rain

    So, earlier I decided to go for my evening lunt (I love that word). The sky had darkened some earlier and the wind picked up, but it blew past. Well as I stepped outside the door, the air was cool and calm. So I start out for my walk. I take my Medico I got at an antique store in Louisiana...

    Woohoo! I Can't Believe I Got Third Place

    The other day as I was checking my email I noticed I had a new email that said "Re: Caption Contest Entry". My heart skipped a beat as I opened it. Sure enough, I had a nice letter from Kevin stating that I came in third place for the April cartoon caption contest. I couldn't believe it. When I...

    Request for Prayers

    Hey y'all. I know I've only been a member here for a short while, and although I've lurked for much longer, I like to think of y'all as my friends. My grandfather is facing surgery in the morning. He has not been feeling well and in a lot of pain for awhile now and the doctor just now found out...
