Secret Santa for Pipe Smokers?

[Secret Pipe Santa]

Any interest from the pipe smokers here?

Santa's cut-off to get involved will be next Wednesday or Thursday.

No Min/Max on price of gifts - it is the act of giving that matters most. Do Not over-extend yourself in this season of giving, as Santa does not deliver to people who live in cardboard boxes (lack of chimneys, you see, not prejudice against the poor).

Post here if interested - better late than never, as Mrs. Clause always bitches at me.

YOU WILL NEED TO POST YOUR CHRISTMAS WISH LIST SO YOUR SECRET PIPE SANTA KNOWS WHAT TO GET YOU!

[IHT]

I'm interested.

[DrStrangelove]

I'm game if my package doesnt have to go out for a week or two.

[DrStrangelove]

[Nooner]

i don't think it would matter what you got someone, it's the gift of giving someone something....

and would be a good way for some of us to get some "newbies to pipes" some different things to try.

i don't think there should be a money min/max on this, just do what you think you can. nobody's asking for a brand new Radice pipe.

we could all post some "wants", like a pipe Xmas list. sound cool? i know some ppl who are interested in pipes don't even have one yet.. *wink-wink.

Ho-Ho-Ho... Christmas is an ALL YEAR event. I'm sure the good little Gorillas would not mind getting a package a few days, or weeks, later than planned. It sure beats coal.

Read the first quote, you Ho.

I guess it would depend on which gorilla you got as your Secret Pipe Santa kid. Some gorillas don't need any more pipes, some may need a tin of tobacco, or a pipe tool/tamper, maybe some new pipe smoking gorillas could use a pipe stand, or maybe a travel pouch, or pipe lighter.
You get the "Ho-Ho-Ho" picture?

How about a $30-50 max on gifts - I know that's not much, but it's a start?

Ho-Ho-Who the heck keeps editing my first post!!??

OH, it's that darn Mummy. You know I'm tight with JC and his Daddy. Thanks for the updating of the topic.

Other stuff - let us see how many "interested" parties get involved. Santa would love to see some newer pipe smokers and some that have yet to pop their "cherry" get in on this.

Father Time is the man that sent me my first pipe and tobacco. That was many years ago, long before any of you were ever born... Back when I could give Mrs. Clause the ol' "North Pole"...

Anyone know why I smoke a pipe when I ride in my sleigh?
Because reindeer farts don't smell as nice as some smoldering latakia, that is why.

Santa, I would love to get in on this, but as a very new smoker (just got my pipes from madurofan today) what can I do to give? A nice package of tobacco from my local shop or what?

It all depends on who your Secret Pipe Santa kid ends up being. Maybe you end up with an experienced smoker who only wants to try a specific tobacco and just hasn't ordered it, and throw in a pipe tool (because we can never have enough of those - 1 for the house, 1 for the office, 1 for the vehicle/sleigh), a package of cleaners, some pipe polish (I love it when Mrs. Clause polishes my pipe).

My advice, since you've been such a forthcoming young boy with wonderful stories of smoking the "wacky tabaccy", is to jump right in and offer up what you can offer up.

Hey... no 'wacky tabaccy' for me!!! With my luck I'd get caught!
