“I’m willing to bet that it started with a pipester loading up a bowl, lighting it, getting distracted and forgetting what he did with the damned pipe.”

Hey! I resemble that remark… :D
Russ, I believe the Calabash v. Sherlock thing is the result of the movie “The Secret Life of Sherlock Holmes”. A spoof and of course instantly into the realm of Urban Legend. Sad….

Great read!
Another Tour de Farce... Uh Force! :puffpipe:
Thanks Russ

I'll address the reason for Holmes' association with the calabash in my next article (October). It's a neat little story that makes perfect sense when you read it.
