    When it Becomes About Enjoyment a Tip for New Pipe Smokers

    On a serious note, it's very easy and enjoyable to have a pipe while skateboarding. Something about smoking during physical exercise is special.

    Favorite Website For Tobacco and Pipes

    I don't get the chance to order near as much as I like. But when I do, 4noggins is my store.

    Arbitrary, But Happy Accomplishment

    Thanks everyone, if it wasn't for this fine forum and all the helpful members herein I'd (likely) have given up the pipe long ago.

    Arbitrary, But Happy Accomplishment

    On Sunday, I finally smoked an entire bowl, from brim to bottom, with only one match. I know this matters not at all, but it is a goal I had set for myself so it feels amazing to go from 6-8 relights to 0. Loaded my BC billiard with Mac Baren Burley London Blend, 3 or 4 PBR and some good tunes...

    Are Bulldog Pipes Expensive?

    Is there a "rule" about the lines, though? Maybe it's just me, but a bulldog without one or two lines carved in it just seems like something else.

    The (Bull) Dogs of War

    Wonderful! Bulldog is my favorite shape, aesthetically. I have yet to own one, but I'm sure one day I'll get that promotion... Thanks for sharing.

    EDIFYING REFLECTIONS OF A TOBACCO-SMOKER

    It's interesting the connection between transcendence and nihilistic sorrow. Seems you can't have one without the other. Wonderful poem; thank you for sharing.

    Nicotine: Stimulant or Sedative?

    I don't think the nicotine itself acts as a sedative, but the process certainly can. Apparently heavy smokers, shortly after quitting, experience very vivid dreams that disturb their sleep. Possibly smoking before bedtime lessens dreams and allows for a more peaceful slumber?

    Elk Are Bugling Again

    Well you know, Elk are one of the few species of animals (including humans) who intentionally seek out and eat psychedelic mushrooms. Perhaps it was more like Woodstock than you realize.

    Smoking in a Vehicle

    Gotta smoke in the car. I had a great 1.5 hour drive the other day, was able to nurse my largest pipe along for the whole trip. Exceptionally enjoyable. Open a window, and don't stress about the smell man.

    This Bo Nordh Can be Yours for Only $16

    It totally is. I feel like this would be mildly upsetting to me, if I had a very skewed sense of worth.

    Does Your Name Google?

    I share my first and last name with a character in the film, Final Destination 2. Every time I google myself I see gruesome pictures of his cinematic death. Hopefully the don't prove to be prophetic. Not unexpectedly, but hilarious none the less, when I google image search my screen name about...
