Beeker St. is great stuff. If you haven't already, I'd recommend trying his Surbrug 71st street. It also has that wonderful nougat flavor in it.

A speedy recovery from PAD (pipe acquisition disorder). I suppose their are worse illnesses, lol. Yes, you will be prosperous afterwards.
I lit up some Virginia Flake in my Erica (Pete second) 302 bent apple and noticed 4 nicks or scratches and a tiny chip below the rim ... I don't remember dropping it at all ... I'll have to hand buff it when I finish. Still smokes very well for a basket pipe over 41 years old though ... oh well ... it adds character and charm.
There are tow threads on that question.

Same as trees, poles, walls-they get hit, or don’t get taken care of and gravity does its thing.
This one was a case of (what’s very common) cop exaggeration. I drove 30 miles in expecting a “large cactus in the road” and found this little 10-12ft saguaro across sidewalk and bike lane. The landscapers can explain it’s just falling over, I think the roots/base just dried and died. It’s been very dry all year, so I could just roll this guy with a pickaxe where I wanted it. After a wet season they get very heavy.
Others have been really big ones in medians that drunks/bad drivers have tried to drive up, that have needed a couple backhoes to get out of street.

It seems part of the art of pipe collecting is figuring out how to continue to collect when there is no $. I’m getting pretty good at this!

Half way through this bowl of year 2020 C&D Virginia Gentleman in a straight smooth dark brown pre-1940s Comoy’s Jost’s Olde English Supreme J299 Canadian with a tapered black vulcanite stem. Been chatting with a good friend.
Wow, once again, the translator kicked my ass, like a fresh cauliflower. The damn translator leaked that you had a serious lung disease. Precisely, today in Spain, is April Fool's Day. I was really scared of such a state of health. I'm glad you are well, Smokeyjock.
Pipe Acquisition Disorder is no joke, your concern was greatly appreciated
