Sir Hubert - my friend

[portascat]

Not sure who Sir Hubert is or was, or why he got a pipe named after him. But he is my friend.
He is man of this world, unafraid to take a stand. Bears enough scars to make the uninitiated tremble and stutter.
Here is to Sir Hubert. Long may he live.

you have to pay a fee first.

Always good to have a friend.

There was a time that Sir Hubert saw fit to pay my rent for me when i was broke, fix my washing machine, cure my cat of fleas, and get my dog pregnant.
Perhaps I shall tell the tale some day.
What a friend.

That's my last name. So.... Feel free to call me Sir Hubert. In fact I insist. Got a nice ring to it eh? 8)

 

[portascat]

Maybe you, or one of yours, are who inspired this great pipe of mines construction.
I bow before your greatness.

Honestly... it's the perfection of simplicity. I want a pipe just like it.

well this has been an interesting google

i belive the Sir Hurbert your pipe is named for is the "Last Explorer" Sir Hurbert Wilkins

looks like he smoked a bent pipe as well

Sir Hubert is honored and appreciative.

That old pipe is a straight up beater. An unapolgetic mess of a pipe. But it smokes.
