Thread: pipe smokers... UNITE!

Count me in too. Although in summner I am more a cigar smoker, I have my pipes and box of tobaccos ready for winter. Oh the pleasures of Penzance, 965, or St Bruno flake...!

I would like to start a social group for all of us pipers at the gates of dawn. I might even call the social "the pipers at the gates of dawn". Or take it down a notch and call it "the pipe smokers club extraordinaire!"
The problem is the following: I only know about two or three pipe smokers here so this is a call for us to gather in one place and apply to this exclusive little club. So... come out and join.

After a while, when I find out who are the pipers here, I'll start a social group and send invitations. Then we can have our very own little smoking room.

So, gentlemen, put on those smoking jackets and smoking caps and sign up in this thread.

G'day Fpessahna,fellow pipe smokers,
I am writing this, whilst enjoying a puff of two on my ancient Petersen,smoking Borkum Riff cherry cavendish, what a jolly good idea.

Cheers all

I'm in!!!!

Enjoying a couple Bosi pipes right now with my favorite Penzance tobaccao,

So long since my aromatic days..........

Thanks,

Lynn

Nice to see that our little club is shaping up. A couple more members and we'll get the thing started.
Now... any sugestions for names?

Thanks! And happy aromatization of the world around you.

I haven't smoked mine in a long time, but they're there just waiting for good weather and a bit of impetus. there is alt.smokers.pipes but I don't know if they ever moved from newsgroups to bulletin board. I used to spend lots of time there.

Lets call it, "Puff puff pass"

As an addendum to my above. if we start our own group of guys that use straights as well as smoke pipes, I think we should work on getting pipes, maybe around Christmas time. Tinsky does them for ASP, and I have had a couple of his pipes, great craftsmanship.

I hope you mean this type of pipe .... I quit smoking that other kind 25 years ago.

Big Red,

Are you talking about doing a group buy?

I used to frequent ASP years ago. I was also a card carrying member of the late Tom Dunn's Coterie of Pipe Smokers. Matter of fact Tom put a little piece I wrote in the very last issue of The Pipe Smoker's Ephemeris. Probably the greatest periodical ever published devoted to the briar brotherhood.
