Do you Love to Smoke Your Pipe?
Addicted to nicotine, yes. But I don’t get the same experience with anything else. Started with cigarettes and quit when I moved up north due to high taxes. Vaped for a good while and loved the flavors until regulations and the best vape rigs and flavors stopped being sold. Cigars are good, but...- Fire Bender

Public Piping; Where Do you Do it?
Usually on my front stoop in the morning. People don’t seem to mind too much. I even got a “nice pipe!” Once when I was smoking a churchwarden. I have long breaks during the day from work and have recently been taking walks in the forest preserve with my pipe.- Fire Bender

Hello from Chicago!
IR is fantastic. Worth the price (and taxes) every time. Most of my family lives in Texas still and every time they come up their accent is spotted right away. I’ve worked hard to get rid of my Texas accent early on in life. ?- Fire Bender

Hello from Chicago!
We have a great diversity of people from all over the world here so I’m sure some people pronounce it differently according to their accents. The correct pronunciation is shi-caw-go. But many pronounce it Shi-caaah-go. I haven’t met many people who pronounce it with a hard CH sound though!- Fire Bender
