Spotted...In The Wild! :: General Pipe Smoking Discussion
I have a natural, unwelcoming, look which makes others averse to approaching me. I cultivated it early in life and, it works to perfection. It's all in the eyes. Some seem to think a man with a pipe is approachable. My look seems to disabuse them of such an outrageous idea. Me,I’m just...

Clyde Wynant ?You can see me?!? I'm so sorry... the thin man must be after you too.
I went for a 4 wheeler (quad bike) ride just before dusk tonight. I passed a Mennonite family of about 6 where the kids were riding bicycles and the parents were walking. As I sped past, I saw the father had a pipe in his mouth. I did a double take but oncoming traffic kept me focusing on what was in front of me. My first pipe in the wild though!
You do look very young. If I saw you walking around smoking a pipe, I wouldn't think it was very common. France must have a different set of normals, ha ha.
Nurse, yesterday, alarmed that I said I smoked a pipe and thinking that I was a nascent crack addict... no, no, tobacco blends. What, like those classy guys in old movies? You got it, darling. Lol.
I have always found pipe smokers in the wild to be talkative and friendly. Perhaps it is because I literally live in a resort area where people come to relax and be friendly. The locals, like myself, have fully embraced the “shallow living, no worries - no stress“ attitude of looking at life. They too are happy to talk. Yesterday at a bar, my wife struck up a conversation with a few gentlemen sitting next to us. They could have chatted for hours, talking about nothing of worth, and enjoying every second of it. I noted that both gentlemen said the same thing - why ever leave - life is so easy here and no body ever thinks too deeply about anything. I was surprised to hear them say that, mostly because it’s true. It all about where’s the next great place to get a drink or isn’t the weather nice- just like yesterday.
German gent spotted in Athens airport this morning.
Just watched Devil in a blue dress. Enjoyed the scenes of a shop with codger blends stacked on the wall behind the counter. Tubs of Prince Albert, Granger, Velvet, Kentucky Club, Half-n-half. Cans of Prince Albert and Velvet. Nostalgia I suppose. This is the sort of pipe stuff I'd like to see in the wild. A simple old shop stocked with these goodies from yesterday. I'd definitely pop in regularly for a can of the Prince. As for people smoking a pipe? Nah. They're a bunch of wierdos...
