A comment more on the actual pipe, rather than tongue-in-cheek alternative references.
First, that is a nice pipe, Harris. My congrats for scoring it.
Second, the more I smoke, the more I find I prefer a billiard straight style. I have a Savinell Deluxe Milano that is a fine smoker, but I don't like the fact that the bowl is right under my nose because of its bent shape. Ditto for my carved meer.
Okay, carry on with the "leg-pulling." :puffy:

six, lol.
Allan, you promised it would be large and straight but it ended up being minuscule and flaccid, you lied. lol
I do have plenty of bent pipes but honestly my straights are just as comfortable, I have never had a straight be hard on my teeth.
Mike, thanks, can't wait to see the pipe you get, he makes some great looking stuff.
boudreaux, thanks. I hear you about really bent pipes. They can be annoying.

Ok, Harris
With that last one, I have just nothing to add.
Very entertaining, and I hope you all enjoyed it.
The next show will be at 8:30pm, matinee at 3:00. Come and join us won't you?
:):)
Cajun, I'm glad we made you smile.

Nice looking Ruth Harris. I didn't realize Mike had him did a POY. Looks like a great blast. Enjoy!
Edit: I just looked at the update again. Not sure how I missed those. It's probably a good thing as one of my Rad commissions are due to complete any day now.

Great grab, Harris.
Brian's natural unstained sandblasts are a part of my collecting motif. I have one such pipe from each year he has been making pipes. My first was a natural rusticated Canadian from 2002 with his old B.A.R. stamping (he was not blasting professionally in his first year). All of mine smoke great with no exceptions.
Best,
Pipestud

Thanks Chris, Steve and Al, I am confident this pipe will be a great smoker, if it isn't I will just send it back to Mike for a full refund and he can eat the cost. lol

That is a gorgeous pipe Harris and I must admit, the back and forth between Harris and Peck is more entertaining that any of the crap on TV today. You guys should do your own show.

Mike, we both know I would never give that pipe back, it is going to be an awesome smoker, even if I put your favorite Royal Yuck in it.
peck, we both know the reason you did not buy one, you could never appreciate a pipe of that quality. You are so used to smoking your cheap basket pipes loaded with Borkum Riff, that a good pipe would be completely foreign to you. Talk about giving a pig whipped cream.

Actually I have moved on from the Lemon Pledge and now carefully infuse all my tobacco with Ben Gay ointment. This has no relation to the gay comments above, however.

For the record, Harris and I are actually friends. In fact, here is a picture of us taken at the recent pipesmagazine.com awards show.

And Harris, regarding your PM to me, I absolutely am not going to explain to you what a "queef" is. Google that shit yourself.

Mike, I know full well that Steve aka Pipestud is the maven on Royal Yuck, I just thought I would insult you by saying it is your favorite( I hope you shipped the pipe already). lol
Thanks to all for the nice comments about my new pipe, it is appreciated.
Peck, I cannot believe you showed that pic, I thought that was our special picture never to be shared. Just to clarify to everyone, Peck and I are brothers from another mother, since the day he joined we hit it off and have been busting each others balls ever since. By the way, I don't think I have to explain the term splooge quaffer do I?
