At the factory (they started working me but i've been temporary laid off till they find something better suited for me i.e an automatic machine opens up) they give us a 30 minute lunchbreak, and two ten minute breaks. What is a good pipe that will give a 5-15 minute smoke?
I am looking at sites to join that could expose me to some new books to read. I found one called goodreads.com
Does anyone use this site? Taking a peek at it , they have quotes from various authors and poets which I like, and i guess each person has a list of the books they owned and have...
consider this thread a thread where you may post a list of pipe smoking authors old and new, discuss their books, quotes, etc etc. So far off the top of my head I can only name JRR Tolkien, and Charles Dickens I believe.

As you may know I have had to quit the pipe smoking hobby due to my current living situation. If all else fails once I am off my adhd medication for a year I will be joining the military which will give me some job security, but sadly that will probably have to wait till i am 20. What are some...
A friend of mine on here sent me some pipe tobacco , a few actually did. my grandfather found one of those packages and sent it to be drug tested. He is convinced you can't send pipe tobacco through the mail, that its illegal, it never occurred to him that someone could just be generous. He is...

Does anyone have any unwanted tobacco they would be willing to send me in the mail so i can get a better taste for what I like while the pockets are light? I am not sure if this is allowed or not, but I saw a post recently where someone traded a classic tamper for a pipe.

I will be getting this for my corn cobs here as soon as I get my bank account set up in two weeks (long story) I will give you my opinions on it then, but I am curious as to what the rest of you have to think about it. Is it good? Does it taste better in a corn cob or a briar? I have heard...
