    Favorite TV Shows

    Hi all, I know there's a lot of junk out there, but I do have my favorites. Like to hear what everyone else likes. I love Walking Dead, it's my number one. I also like Revolution and American Horror Story, which is waaaaay out there. As far as comedies, I think Modern Family and Parks and...

    Eastbound & Down

    Does anybody here enjoy this show as much as I do. This is one of the funniest, darkest, anti-heroist, raunchy comedy around. The series just ended and it went out with a bang, IMHO. Breaking Bad pushed the viewers empathy with a dark protaganist as far as a drama is concerned. This does the...

    MacBaren Virginia No. 1 Part 2

    Hi all, I just smoked this through one of my new cobs and man oh man does it taste great. I have tried some Peterson University Flake and it did not taste nearly as good as Mac's Virgies to me. I like the really natural sweet note of virginias and would like to know if any of you out there...

    My Custom Cob Emperors

    Thanks to Pyrotec, I found out I could get my Emperor cob just the way I wanted, which is to say a straight stem with the polished bowl, not nekked like they usually do. I ordered this on tuesday and got it today. I love these suckers, I think they are too cool. Much better looking then the...

    Striker Pipes

    I was looking through some of my old Pipes and Tobacco magazines and keep seeing advertisements for Striker pipes. They are no longer in business but what's interesting was they claimed to have a draw of like 2 to 3 feet in a conventional looking/sized pipe. I can't figure out how they did it...

    Spring Heel Jack

    I bought this tobacco from a B and M here in sacramento CA called the Briar Patch. Has a great taste and reminds me of Optimum from the Tinder Box. It was a bulk and like all bulks I'm sure someone here knows what else it is called and who also sells it. The guy at the shop said it's one of...

    The Practical Meerschaum

    Her's a peek at what I call my practical meerschaum. It is by K&P Peterson and is Meerschaum, believe it or not. I love the finish and the fact that I don't have to worry about handling it and messing up the finish or coloring. Can have multiple bowls out of it per day and love that. It is...

    McClelland 221 Baker st Arcadia

    I have been enjoying MacBaren's virginia no 1 lately and just smoked some Arcadia out of my MM Freehand. Wow, this stuff is tasty. It had been a while since I smoked it and I forgot how tasty it is. Has a great natural tobacco taste and more of a tangy, rich taste then the sweet virginias...

    The Pipe Cleaner Test

    I've been thinking about this a lot lately (bored). I'm not so convinced a good pipe has to pass this test. I know both of my Petersons non system bents don't pass the test, but the pipe cleaner does go in far enough to soak up the moisture and improve the smoke. Granted, I prefer a pipe that...

    Peter Stokkebye Turkish Pipe Tobacco

    Just smoked some turkish pipe tobacco in my new kaywoodie. Second time I have smoked this tobacco and bought off of 4noggins. I guess this is also used for RYO cigarettes but for a pipe as well. I really like it in a pipe. Has a nice kind of "malty" taste, burns great and all the way. No...

    Cigars?

    Try as I may, I have never been able to enjoy a cigar. They just don't taste as good as Pipes to me. Anybody have any or the same experience. I don't think I'll ever enjoy a cigar like a pipe but wouldn't mind finding a cigar that can substitute in a pinch. Any suggestions, advice would be...

    Kirsten News, If You Care

    I have been into my Kirstens lately and wanted to get another bowl or two. Called Kirsten up and they still are not making any pipes, nor do they have any bowls or really any parts. The guy at the store said probably about another 3 months before they are making parts/pipes again. I know I...
