Pipestud...

[parris001]

I'm a little late at receiving this news and I want to wish Pipestud a continuing speedy and complete recovery. I happened upon Pipestud entirely by accident in my online quest for pipe and tobacco related knowledge, and after seeing his name come up in virtually every website that is relevant I realized what a wealth of knowledge he truly is. His reviews on TobaccoReviews.com are the benchmark on which I base my purchases. If it weren't for him I never would have tried Count Pulaski which turned out to be an awesome baccy at a very inexpensive bulk ($1.99 an ounce at my local B&M) price. I don't have the budget at this time to do business with him on eBay but because of who he is and the fact that he takes this all very seriously I will probably quit buying some of the inexpensive (dare I say "junk") pipes and see what he has to offer.

I don't want to get up on my political soapbox here and risk offending anyone but our love of the pipe and tobacco in general has been maligned, and it's Pipestud and his contemporaries that certain leaders of our's would like to see silenced. Pipestud is a Patriot. I encourage him to keep up the good work and we all owe it to him to support him and keep our love of the briar and all things related legal.

God's speed..........
