    Where/when a pipe?

I use to smoke cigs (8 yrs quit)and realized that i dearly missed smoking. I began looking at a portrait of the...

    What Did You do Today?

    Watched some whales feeding in the bay. Shoveled some snow out so I could get to my wood pile. Watched some National Geographic VHS tapes, and pulled some bear meat out of the freezer to thaw for stew. Pretty nice.

    If you could only buy one pipe for the next 5 years, what would it be?

    Rustic vs. Sandblast

    After much internal struggle, and debate my solution is to blasticate all of my pipes and consider the lot a dog's breakfast.

    Rustic vs. Sandblast

    I appreciate the responses as to the "why's" here. @Petergunn - in response to your being surprised by the ideas that they are one in the same it seems that in my own research there are a lot of conflicting views on several pipe descriptions. The ongoing debate of what makes a Bulldog different...

    Why Did You Start?

    @flintlockjohn - Then my dog and I are going to pull up stakes and take a 22 mile snow machine ride out of this snowy valley I've been living in for 5 months to Pinedale, WY where my wife will be waiting with my new-to-me Dunhill and some Father Dempsey and then ...let the smoking begin!! :puffy:
