    The Love Of Pickles

    All of them! I am known to spend twenty minutes or more in the pickle aisle of the grocery. Besides cucumber, I like everything else pickled. I buy anything I see and grow my own to pickle as well.

    Kaywoodie Campus question

    Essentially you have it right. The round insert was usually an indicator of a higher end pipe, with the white clover being reserved for lower end lines. This was not, however, consistent.

    Ha! Armchair experts get in quick, even before I took over. Thank you for the kind words and thoughts. Cannot wait to see you. I'll keep some good plug in my pocket in case you are at one of the shows.
