Had some of Russ's Cinnamon Roll blend from Pipes and Cigars. For a non-aromatic guy, I actually liked it. Most aros taste to me like hot air. This one has some nice tobacco flavor.

That is a very nice looking pipe sir.Quote:

Picked up this Pipe yesterday and have already smoked a couple of bowls through it. The P-Lip took a bit of getting used to but is quite nice overall. An Enjoyable Pipe at a reasonable price.
Enjoy your new Pete when you get it 1OldGI...Sure you'll enjoy it as I do mine.
Sunday evening pipe. SG Commonwealth from Sailor (Stanwell 2nd). Estonian lager.
Perfect start for a 7-day off work.

I notice they don't have any problem selling <fill in the flavor> cigars that the youngins use for other stuff. My state is currently debating "medical devil's lettuce". If they're gonna market it as medicine, IMHO it should be THC in a pill form. Otherwise its just a path to legalization and we've got enough burned out adult age kids out there (also MHO). Meanwhile those of use who enjoy pipe tobacco, cigarettes (clove or otherwise) or tobacco in any form are subject to government sponsored price gouging and social condemnation.Quote:

Thanks Moo. I like the practicality of small (internal) bowled pipes. They save on tobacco which is expensive here. I'll get around to making a hard case for my Clay pipes one of these days, so I can cart them around safely for use. :)Quote:

Don't you have laws that specify your Deer must be on a leash...:p
Mick
You might think that that green strap is a leash but it was used to tie to a tree to keep it from sliding further down the hill. Not the tree!:)Quote:

I wouldn't be offended of pics of a nicely prepared Venison steak with Morels and an after supper pipe. Just sayin.....:)Quote:

I read similar remarks about OJK that is plenty stout for sure, but it's my all day every day smoke. One smoke in, I'd have to say that the hype was actually pretty close on this one. It's a great tobacco and has that acrid taste to it that will make you say, "That's one damn strong tobacco!" If you're familiar with Five Brothers, this one has a similar taste but is easily twice as strong without the shag cut. How strong is it you ask? I'm certainly no nic wimp. In fact I'm ingesting nicotine in some form (dip and pipes mostly but the occassional stogie is not out of the question) most of the day every day. My initial assessment at least is that this is most assuredly a bedtime smoke. I ain't saying it's strong or anything but half an hour or so after smoking a pipeful I inexplicably broke a sweat and felt VERY relaxed (no I was only half a PBR in.)

Maybe it's just my dog**** photography skills. This pic is a bit better. Nah, you're right, it's grizzled! An absolutely fabulous old man pipe. Tomorrow after work I'm gonna load this bad boy full of Granger and get me a "pointer on fine tobacco" still one of the coolest puns in marketing history. See pic below the pipe. There's actually a pointer (dog) on the can of fine tobacco LOL!Quote:

Go Burley young man! It virtually eliminates cat tongue. If you dig a good Lat bomb C&D Billy Budd is just what the doctor ordered. It wouldn't bite you if you paid it. Continuing the liquor analogy- Billy Budd = A fine CognacQuote:

And this time i wont try to send any pics of a birds i've taken lately. Not too much daylight hours any more.
However, i'll post you a link. Whatever happens in a big world, this has absolutely been a top 1 front page for the whole week here.
Drowning owl rescue.
In unlikely case some of you gents do not understand Finnish i give a long story short:
Local dude was kayaking at the nearby lake one morning when he saw something floating. After getting close he saw it was an exhausted baby owl. Crows make Stuka attacks against owls every now and then; this time this little fellow had made a crash landing into a lake but couldn't get back airborne no more.
At first it tried to escape and swim away but after few seconds it turned around, came back and tried to get on deck of the kayak. Luckily the man in the kayak was a real gentleman so he helped the owl. Pretty soon the owl crawled under his vest, being hypothermic after being in ice cold water for maybe many hours.
Man paddled home with the owl under his vest and upon getting back to his house his wife put it in the cardboard box next to their fireplace.
The owl seemed to be like dead but at night it started to make some hell of a noise so they taught that maybe it had warmed up enough. They took the box out, opened and away the little owl flew.
Not much stories with happy endings these days but this was surely one.
I love happy endings such as this,thanks Tomi. Nice pipe and beer. Very comfy looking. Your pictures are always enjoyed by the way !:)
P,S. Love the pipe rest "T" . :)
That was a good way to start the day. Thanks tomi
Here are a couple of my latest experiments. [Another of my excellent pictures!:rofl2:]Quote:

How could you make your meerschaum be so shining? Mine are all so matt...
As predicted this turned out to totally be a match made in heaven. I've often heard the acronymn PAD but I never thought it actually meant Peterson Acquisition Disorder. I'm eyeballing a straight variant and of course I'd like a p-lip system pipe. Maybe one day.
