SHEET. Right when I have a dentist appointment...

Yeah, my quick reaction was if they are 50 g tins, $5 each is a steal, regardless if you like them or not. A great source for info is www.tobaccoreviews.com Well worth looking them up there and getting some basic details on them before firing them up... at least knowing what style they really...

Mike, thank you for the lovely package -- a tin of Dunhill 965 and some baggies of Peter Stockebye English Luxury, Boswells Berry Cobbler and a blend from a place near where you live called Fisherman. Looks very intriguing!

Mike sent me a nice little package of pipe tobacco based on a wish I made on a PIF thread. Quick shipment, well packed. Thank you for sharing these with me!

We use Endicia here at work and ship 1500 packages a month. Works great.

Actually, I knew you had done that joke many times before. It was a meta-joke, a tongue in cheek reference to your joke. Are you laughing yet? I am!

Matches? What's wrong with flint? These young kids these days, with their matches, and baggy pants...

My new Boswell showed up a couple of days ago, but I wasn't feeling well and so was unable to smoke it until today. I just had my first (and second) smoke of my very first pipe... pretty cool. The tobacco was Boswell Sweet Tea which was pretty much as you might imagine. Fairly light flavor, a...

Three suggestions. First, are you fully venting the lighter before filling it? Second, are you putting the lighter in the freezer for 5-10 minutes before filling it? Third, what are you thinking, buying a Colibri? They really are pieces of junk... every Colibri I've owned has ended up in...

Religious war... I like my cigars around 63 RH. I feel if they are at 70 RH I'm smoking water i.e. the flavors are less intense, the cigar burns poorly, etc. Anything between around 62 and 66 and I'm happy. I think you'll find that most experienced smokers will say 70 RH is too high. Most...

Commencing pee pee dance! Thanks so much!

I love Anejos, and I love dogs, so I know exactly where you're coming from. I had to put down my last dog about six months ago. It is never easy. That said, I'm coming around to the idea of puppy shopping next spring...

That's fantastic. Enjoy!

I was really tempted, and was online at the right time (thanks Jake) but couldn't bring myself to buy another pipe when JM specifically told me on the 10th that I should buy one pipe, smoke it for a while, and then figure out what I wanted to try next, once I started to form an opinion about...

Cool! Sounds fun. Thanks in advance!

I had to smile when I read this, and Jake's follow up post... I too am a former offensive lineman... no college ball, but I was recruited by a few schools, just didn't want to go there... and when I was in high school it was common for me to go up to about 245 for football and then down to...

Nice post, Jake. OK, then, I'll step up to the plate... my address is in my profile... I'm a guy who's been smoking cigars for 14 years, so that's the planet I'm from... and I'm a total pipe newbie. If someone out there with an extensive stash wanted to take a few moments, glance through...

I think this is exactly right. There are a good solid double handful of guys who routinely post here in the Pipe Room and quite a few of them have popped up already on this thread. I suspect, given my own experience, that pretty much any newbie is going to be totally intimidated. I'd love to...

Jake, sorry to hear of the health problems, and thanks for updating everyone. I personally was starting to have the start of some rather serious medical issues when I was about 35. I used quite a bit of medical assistance at the time, but once things stabilized, in a somewhat unrelated move (I...
