26th commandment"Thou shalt not brag about thy pipe"

I posted up a thread on it about 2-3 months ago....since you asked I'll put up the other pics of it. :wink:

I get all warm and fuzzy just holding the thing (that's what she said) :P

Or conversely, what she did not say. Which is much less fun.

My favorite is also an inherited one from my Grandma.

For the first time in a long time,....I really don't have anything to brag about.
I've got about 25 pipes and I don't think there's a single one of them anyone would trade me a Happy Meal for.

I've got about 25 pipes and I don't think there's a single one of them anyone would trade me a Happy Meal for.

That conjures a humorous mental image, Tommy. I would like to see that negotiation.
If I remember my "Happy Meal years" correctly, that deal definitely makes with a loaded pipe and some matches. I probably would have bargained to keep the toy, though!

won on ebay and received last week. I love it so much I actually get nervous holding it. Currently hidden in the bottom of drawer so the lady wont get riled up on my purchase.

I have a LOT of fine pipes. I don't bragg about them but if asked about a pipe I am smoking, I tend to tell all about it. After all, these days we don't get to bragg about them much anymore.

Chuck W.: With a collection as large as yours, I've got two questions for you:
1. How do you ever decide which one you are going to smoke?
and
2. Assuming that you have some type of rotation going, how may do you smoke before you break down and finally get to clean what you've smoked? How do you keep a handle on keeping your "to be cleaned" rack from outnumbering your "to be smoked" rack?
My humble collection is passing the 20 mark and those two questions just about encompass my pipe inventory control problems.

Chuck your collection is so awsome, it could pass for a fine screen saver
