Good day to all and hello.
My name is Chuck. Some may know me from other forums as Truckerchuck. I am three weeks away from my 67th birthday and have been a dedicated pipe smoker for only the last 10 years or so. I smoked my first pipe while in highschool back in Oxnard, Calif. at the tender age of 15. That pipe and tobacco, a $2.95 Dr. G. and Middleton's Cherry Blend almost cured me forever. I went back to cigarettes and stayed with them until the mid 70's when I "graduated" to cigars.
I am a retired cross country truck driver who stayed out for a month at a time before coming home for 4 or 5 days. One afternoon, just after my wife had stopped smoking, I strolled in with a Joya De Nicaragua Classic stuck in my maw.
"Gee Honey, that thing REALLY stinks. I don't think you can smoke them in the house anymore, but you can smoke a pipe." says Herself.
And a monster was born.
My favorite pipe brand is Peterson's, espacially the higher grades in both System and non-System pipes. My preferance in tobaccos is English blends altho I've recently developed a fondness for Va's.
I also moderate the Peterson's Smokers Group on Smokers Forums.
