Yeah, got plenty of pipes, but that was one of my favorites, pretty new to me, but still a good smoke

Got it from an estate of a friend, looks like he had done something to the stem, maybe he tried to make it fit better, i dont know. Either way im kind of bummed

It happens. Since you have plenty of pipes, you could do what I do which to store them up until I have a four or five to send in which can take years but when you send them out and get them back, its like Christmas!

I won a Peterson Supreme with a broken stem and sent it to Mary Ann Keller, 208B Evergreen Circle, Tobyhanna, Pa. 18466. mak11@ptd.net She did a great job as it is a perfect fit and looks just like the original--only without the break and oxidation. It was gone less than two weeks and much less expensive. I will send her my next problem.

I would give the Boswell's a call, they are great people and do some really nice hand-cut stems, on that freehand I see perhaps one of their twist-type lucite/pearlized stems :puffy:

The language used by some of you guys reflects your ignorance and total lack of etiquette. You probably don't even realize

how you embarrass yourselves and reveal your substandard upbringing. And such expressions over a broken stem? What do you

spew forth when things go really badly? Wow, has our society become so dissipated that we tacitly accept such usage

in public forums and publications?
You're lucky I'm not a mod, or those posts would have been toast! Post Toasties! :rofl:

I think it's a matter of what is public decorum. When in mixed company a general rule is to go the route of the least offensive for whomever has the highest standards.
While my mouth probably wouldn't be the friendliest if it happened to me, I'd make sure it was in better shape by the time I started telling the story to others... :roll:

:crazy: Oy vey....I struggled for quite some time on whether this should be addressed via PM or public post, and decided on the latter.
1. The thread title was in asterisks so as NOT to offend people. Choosing to venture into such a thread should imply you might be in for something raunchy.
2. If someone's language is offensive, in any situation, handle it one on one. That's the mature thing. Generalizations that insult people's intelligence or upbringing are absolutely uncalled for.
3. Cursing exists, and has existed, in both upper class and lower class, higher education and no education, right wing and left wing. Also, this site if for pipe smokers, meaning we expect you to be old enough to see an R rated movie. Therefore, you should be able to handle some exposure to language that some of us prefer to use in times like this, even if you prefer not to partake.
Lastly, in regards to the OP........That f***in sucks balls man!
