    ***What Are You Smoking, May 2024?***

    After a lopsided Scrabble victory versus wifey (I won't even reveal the score, it was that bad), went out to the workspace to enjoy the calm before the storm with a bowl of Mac Baren Vanilla Cream in a La Rocca Due bent billiard with a glass of brandy. 9.1/10. There's always a late season...

    Peterson Irish Harp 80s Rusticated Bent Bulldog

    If there had been an "Irish Pipes" section, I'd have posted this there. I certainly didn't mean to irk anyone! Mods, if you feel it's appropriate to move this into the general section, by all means go for it.

    Mac Baren Dark Twist

    Never tried it, but I keep hearing good things. It's certainly on my to-try list, along with Club Blend.

    TAD Acquisitions 2024

    Couldn't resist P&C's free Sutliff ashtray! Snagged a Mac Baren 7 Seas sampler pack in the process.

    VaPer recommendation?

    Yep, and in fact, they carry a decent number of other match tobaccos.

    Dedicated Pipe for Latakia?

    Plenty of good advice in this thread. The thread @Sigmund referenced is also of value--I posted something of a novel in it the other day, so I'll refrain from repeating myself! When it comes to dedicating pipes, you can be as nitpicky as you want, or be on the complete opposite end of the...

    The Official 2024 NHL Playoff Thread

    Two questions, where'd you get your crystal ball, and what are the next round of lottery numbers? Yep, it's a bit like the Kings vs. Leafs series in '93, when some Toronto columnist wrote that Gretzky was playing like he had a piano on his back. All Gretz did was score in OT the next game, and...

    It is Eat or Be Eaten

    May 31 is also Infidelity Hurts Awareness Day, but it would appear that the reverse celebration tactic might only work effectively for the clientele of the local Spearmint Rhino... 🤔

    ***What Are You Smoking, May 2024?***

    First smoke of May was C&D Opening Night in a Peterson Irish Harp 80s blasted doggie. Another gem, 9.3/10. Ran out of time for a bowl yesterday, but on the plus side, the greenhouse is now fully covered in fresh plastic, a monumental task that is finally behind us. This is our first time growing...

    Ghosting Paranoia

    Firstly, congrats on the new Pete, it's a beaut! Secondly, while you're probably not going to ghost it with either blend (Nougat's a fairly mellow aro), you do have to ask yourself how deeply you plan on exploring different blend types. Using myself as an example, when I first started out, I...

    Orangutan heals its wound

    Really hoping that orangutans don't have an FDA equivalent in their societies. Poor dude's gonna find the hammer coming down on him good and fast otherwise!

    They met each year from '89 to '92. Wouldn't be surprised in the least.

    No, I just don't watch East Coast hockey.
