Generally speaking I run my life with strict adherance to reason and logic (however flawed that may be).
But when it comes to pipes, I am a romantic at heart. I have a thing for pipe manufacturers that have a bit of history to them. It's why I own several Peterson pipes - I guess I like the idea that people have been smoking Petes for well over a hundred years. And the fact that Peterson is Irish company (seeing how my Grandfather smoked a pipe and was from Ireland).
I guess it's also why I haven't bought an artisan pipe yet (though if I had the means, I would!)
