That's as close as I come these days. Gracias to Mad Hatter for the 'baccy sample! Nice stuff!

Bitte Dan but actually I believe its Danish for quarter pounder with cheese. Cool beans you're diggin' it

it certainly isn't, sir!!!!!!!

(cause that would be "kvartpunder med ost". "hamborger veermaster" is, i believe, northwestern german dialect for "four-master from hamburg")

Actually I meant Dutch but you're probably right since its the title of an old german song

I just spent a good 20 minutes debating on whether or not to post a Random Pipe Thoughts/Ideas/Chatter thread and lookie here - its already in existence. Great minds folks....great minds!!!

***

I just got my first 2 official 1.5oz satchels of tabackie and upon opening up the package and frankly even before, I had this massive overwhelming urge to smoke a pipe. But...I had no pipe. No pipe for Dave at work. No no pipe. And I started thinking...maybe I can post a question on the forum for some quick advice on how to build a pipe on your own in under 5 minutes using only misc. office type supplies and what not. Kinda regret that cause I am sure you guys would have given me something. Coke Can modifications-R-us?!?!? So then I decided to leave the office, grab one of my satchels and head over to the B&M thats just around the corner and see if they have a $5 cob that I could start smoking in. No such luck. This particular store is not very pipe-oriented, not like my other shop near my house and his cheapest pipe was $70. Screw that!
So I ended up burning a stick. And although Very Very Very Good, it wasn't what I was craving.
The moral of the story - Bring a pipe with you whereever you go.
I cant wait for Hatters pipes to get here.

I dunno about California, but in Illinois there's a Walgreens on every corner, and in every one of those Walgreens, they have Missouri Meerschaum Cob pipes for right around $5.

doesn't help you now, but it couldn't hurt either

No. Its a good point actually. I need to keep that option in mind.
Thanks for telling me.

Wife informed me on Friday afternoon "We're having a yard sale tomorrow" which was followed up by "Do you want to get rid of some or your cigars or pipe stuff?" to which my reply was "Only as much as I can smoke during the yard sale".

She didn't look real happy at my answer.

I dont know your wife's temper but if I would have said that to my girlfriend and we were having a yardsale, you can bet she would sell some of my stuff to spite me.

Note!
Go grab your gear and hide it from her.
Watch her during the sale for any unauthorized activity.

I hate yard sales, fate worse than death. My wife called 1-800 got junk and told me what day they would be here. I came home from work early just to make sure junk got taken away and nothing else! I went to the closet and strapped my manhood on and watched my "stuff".

I recall Moo speaking of his strap-on, but I don't believe it was in a yard sale or even a manhood context ...... What was it he was bragging on .... ?

Won't work on a football fan from Detroit... or Cincinnati for that matter.

If I were superstitious I would blame Sports Illustrated. The Cavs were unstoppable the first two rounds and then SI went and put LeBron on the cover. The curse strikes again.

At least 3-1 isn't the end of the world. Win this next one at home like they're supposed to and they're right back in it.
