Keepers of the Flame

[admin]

There are all kinds of pipe smokers, and we are amongst great company, including; poets, artists, writers, presidents, kings, and even Nobel Laureates.
Fred Brown talks about this and more in his September column. Check it out at the link here!

We have a thirst that is rarely quenched.

A nice way of saying that PAD and TAD have us by the neck

As for me it's more by the wallet.

My kids have me by the wallet LOL
But PAD and TAD latch on to where they can!

I am in a constant fog of TAD and PAD. I just bought a Savinelli Dolomiti 673 KS. Can't wait till it gets here!

Love the stems on those Dolomitis!

I'm still very much a beginner and don't even know what I like and don't like yet and I have acquired both syndromes. I have on the way an estate Savinelli with a marbled bit and a nice silver ferrule. I also just got in the mail some PS Luxury Twist Flake and some G&H Brown Vanilla Flake that I want to try.
The shame of it is that if I end up liking the Brown Vanilla, it's already been discontinued

I keep saying I am over it! PAD and TAD, I mean. But the very moment I say that, I see another pipe, another blend to try. And there you go. I am under the spell of more PAD/TAD.

Same here. But after 5 weeks of this I am finally toning it down and ending the flurry of buying, though I have a three page wish list on Smoking Pipes, which includes a Savinelli Dolomiti (mentioned above), this one a rusticated 311 KS.
