I honestly don't have time for any other forums. I gotta get out of the house every once in a while. :lol:
Guys and gals,
I have no time for "Mutual Admiration Societies" or monster ego's. We have or hobby/passion in common and that includes our respect for all others who understand that. None of us is perfect but we should at the least be able to laugh at ourselves as individuals and share the fun and knowledge of others. The forum, moderators, and administrators set the tone and it is up to the membership to enjoy the forum and grow it in a healthy way.
I look forward to checking in when I can and enjoying the comeraderie and hope everyone else does also. Time to jump off my soapbox and take cover, the black helicopter has been hovering over my house of late. :rofl:

Now, down here that's called a Classic (or Fr. Tim's old junk heap if I know you). I may not post as much as I wish but I'll tell you what, I can't wait to log on each day and find out what's on everybody's mind. You guys are great. And I'm proud to be associated with all of you. :

I like the idea. Kevin, I submit this for your approval! Coolness Card for all because, if I don't have some form of proof, no one in their right mind would ever think I'm cool. Hell, I consider myself a lameass.
But to put the train back on the rails, this is the only forum I visit... for any reason. I felt homesick while I was away. I really missed the folks here. Other sites just piss me off.
Adam12, you gotta send me the link where they asked what pipes you owned before they would accept you. I could have some serious fun with them. I was once banned from a cigar board because I questioned the authenticity of the Davidoffs and Dunhill Cubans they were buying. Years later it turned out the seller was selling fakes and all those clowns ended up with fugazi's they paid a fortune for. Davidoff Dom Perignons were going for 150.00 a stick and I knew they were fake.
Not to 'jack this thread, but a 1988 Oldsmobile Cutlass Supreme looks like this:
The 1988 Oldsmobile Cutlass Supreme Classic lookslike this:
I had an '87 Cutlass Supreme that looked very similar to the one on the top. The one on the bottom was the "Classic" model which was only available in 1988. It had styling similar to previous incarnations of the line.
We now return to our regularly scheduled program...

Puffy I could not agree more with you.
In the recent past the guys and gals on here not only make every newby feal welcome but try to teach and perfect their hobby. I treat you all like brothers and I feal they do the same in return. Now as I am teared up from thinking of the way everyone has been on the level honest and willing to give their shirt off their back to help any and all members here. I have been given tobacco and pipes when I first got back into the brother hood of you esteamed gents, and now that I have been unemployed and desperatly seaking work you guys have helped this brother out so much in well wishes, advise, help with the search for work, and keeping my pipe full many times over since I have been struggling just keeping the bills paid.
I will always be a member here, even when I have nothing to stuff my pipe with. I intend on paying it forward as many of you have done towards me. My hat is off to each and every one of you that has given me not only a leg up but a pat on the back to keep going. I wish to thank every one for the support and will never leave this site.
Listen to me blubbering and babbling on. Just Thanks to Everyone.

What a lot of forums don't understand apparently is that everyone was a "noob" at some point. I've been on gun forums where they would chew a new guy's ass out for misspelling words or attaching links to other forums...totally stupid and like was mentioned earlier, you had you 6-8 guy cliques that I didn't care for. I voluntarily left one well known forum because of getting a couple reprimands from not only the mod but the Admin as well for posting a link that had some copyrighted material on it. So what? What I posted about wasn't. It was only a song within a large website and there was no indication the song was a copyright. In fact, in was in the public domain but something else on that website was copyrighted. I don't know-I thought it was sophomoric and some there suffer a Napoleon complex anyway.
I didn't know this website existed and found it by accident. I've only been to one other pipe forum and lurked a bit to find the folks there were not what I wanted to associate with after viewing several threads and responses to the guys that started it. This is far and away the best of the best, IMHO. Where else could you go where guys are cordial enough to send you free baccy!!?? :D Moreover, there are many that will do a bit of research in your behalf just to answer a nagging question you have. I feel at home here and need none other.

This forum is indeed one that I would never like to leave. It was the first and only forum I joined... NO REGRETS!
What really got to me is when I took a break and went to YouTube. I was contacted by a few members of the forum on YouTube telling me that they had noticed I disappeared and wanted to see me back. Here I am! Thanks guys.
