Great! Thanks, I lived in Rochester for 3 years in the late 90's. I loved it, I miss that place. I use to hang out at the Elmwood Inn, ahh the memories! PM on it's way! Andy

How do you like the CH and PA? I've tended to like the CH better. I've not smoked enough of each to make up my mind. Just curious at to your impressions. I've found more flavor from the CH at this point. Andy

Just picked up three Kaywoodie's for a grand total of 8 bucks! All from the same guy, but different auctions. I just put in 5 bucks each and didn't think I even had a chance. One went for 1.25. I'm hoping they will be decient smokes. My favorite so far was an 8 dollar Mastercraft. Had a...

If it is, I would like anything other than the drug store and local blends. I've yet to try anything really. I'm just a beginner so don't kill me. If not, I'll wait until I'm able to hook someone up. Thanks! Andy

We did this in college. We would get into apartment and steal ALL of their underwear. Place it in an empty laundry soap container. Fill will water. Freeze. Cut container off of block of frozen undies. At dinner in the Cafe, carry frozen block of undies and place in middle of table. Works...

I also have a saltwater fish tank and visit Reefcentral.com a lot. It is huge and tons of information, but not much of a family feel. More like an information clearing house.

It's hard to describe how hard. I'm sure Alan will help here. I'm new also and have found you just need to play with it. Usually I dip my pipe into the tobacco and let just gravity fill the bowl full, kind of like scooping it full gently. Then push this down to the half way point. I usually...

Just picked up this on ebay. . . I'm excited as this is the first pipe that cost over 5 bucks!!! So far my favorite pipe is the Mastercraft I picked up a few weeks ago. It was a great smoker. I had to clean it up a bunch, but it is no where near as nice at this one. Just hope it's a...

Had a bowl of Black Vanilla from Peter Stokkebye and I'm really liking this blend. It is my first premium blend. Nice sweet finish and not bad bite.

I just picked up some PA and CH after some research and found this to be great advise that is everywhere. A great place to go is forum.pipes.org. There are lots of tobacco threads and discussion. Check out the "all day tobacco" thread. This is where PA and CH are if not the majority choice...

Thanks Alan, I've always been a "what works for you" type person and enjoy the discovery. I'm finding this more enjoyable that cigars. You can have a great bowl and not spend 10 bucks on one stick. I also enjoy that the smoke is much more "nose-able" so to speak. I think it really...

If is is an aromatic blend will it soak into the pipe and add to "ghost" flavor of the next bowl? That would be my fear. But that is good info that you can let it go that long with out the stale taste like cigars. Thanks!

So now that I've officially had a couple bowls in both mini and regular pipes some questions come to mind. The mini pipe is perfect for the 45 min car ride home. It poses some difficulties, but I've enjoyed it and think I will keep using this for my commute. However, would it be possible to...

Well my first auction win on flebay arrived today. With shipping a whopping total of 11 dollars!!! (shipping included!) I cleaned it up and wiped it out with alcohol and set outside for some enjoyment. I packed the pipe with the local blend #14 which is still in question as to if it is...

This is taken inside of my fish tank with an Olympus 1030sw camera. This creature is a coral and the circles are just a bit bigger than the diameter of a #2 pencil. I love the picture as it is of amazing creatures and also that it was stinking cool to stick my camera IN the tank. It's a...

Just picked up a couple of cob pipes from Frenchy's along with some cleaners and tamper. Also won over the weekend (Sat.) a Mastercraft De Lux. From my research, this is either the company that took over Dr. Grabow, or the other way around. Not sure, but all had positive feed back for a low...

Thanks! You were the first personto bomb me when i joined! I'm hoping to clean up the Dr. Grabow and yuse it for english and keepthe small and cobs for the aromatic stuff. I'm currently the high bidder on a mastercraft frome France so we will see if that works out. We could use a pipe...

Well I've been looking for that perfect commute cigar and just have not been able to find enough variety (in my limited price range). I go to an annual "herf" with guys from my past job and most either smoke pipes or cigars. My friend that lives in Egypt brought back a Sheesa (sp?) pipe and...

Just did one of my favorites today with the usual burgers, sausage, dogs. Grilled Zucchini and Yellow Squash quarter veggies drizzle with olive oil Season with: season salt pepper thyme Grill over indirect heat till they are just starting to get soft, then place over direct heat to just give...

Lived there for almost 2 yrs and there isn't anything you can buy here in the states. Most places down there have their own "special" mix of seasoning. The best I ever had was in a little town called Highgate and I new the guy pretty well. He would marinate his chicken in 5gal buckets and...
