Pipe smoking, a lost art.

[jancan123]

JanCan sends my apology out, as it seemed to ruffle a few feathers on my statement shout. I’m not a troll, but a wife worry about her beau. As my husband said to me yesterday, maybe I shouldn't be on these sites anyway? I purchase several pipes for my guy, who smoked them nightly on the sly, so did that smoke really fly. So please accept my humble apology for a statement made somewhat strongly. For Creamy goodness thanks for your humbleness, I didn’t mean to throw you that rumble mess. So drink up, smoke up and enjoy your life, make sure your life insurance premiums are paid up for your wife. :cross:

I've heard pipe collecting becomes as addicting as homebrewing... That's dangerous

My apologies too Jan and Dan.
Not knowing that you were Dan's little woman, thinking that you were an insensitive person pushing their values or ideals on persons who were simply enjoying tobacco talk...
I too said things that were not nice. I would like you to sincerely accept my apology and hope that you in fact keep posting as knowing that the fairer sex is about, hopefully keeps it possibly cleaner here.
I no longer think you're a Putz and do NOT want to see you fight with spoons!!!! Lol
Sorry... this has been traumatic!

 

[GilaMinumBeer]

I still want to see Jan fight with spoon and pinecones. Especially if Dan is armed with a toothbrush and a Orange Roughy.


Tout suite, dearest Jan, don't be such a toughie.
With toothbrush in hand, and the other Orange Roughy.
Dan puffs on his heirlooms, like a waterless guppy.

To talk of tobacco, a health thing it's not.
No vitamins, no minerals, in those pipes that he's got.
But just look at it this way, at least it's not pot.

I haven’t recent pipe smoked experience, because it is out of style now. But I have noticed that there are few of women are still using pipe smoke method at my night club.

This is one of the oddest statements I have ever seen here for some reason...
and this coming from a guy (me) who has cranked out some damned fine odd statements......


No offense!

You are saying that women at YOUR nightclub smoke pipes?

 

[Shooter]

Whoa, slow down there, let's not go jumping to any conclusions. Females using "pipe smoke method" could mean a lot of things. Some of which can't be talked about in this area of the forum!

This thread has inspired me to go down to the smoke shop and pick up a pipe. I enjoy it much more than a cigar, though I definitely prefer a glass of single malt versus a homebrew while smoking. One question for the experienced, I smoked my first bowl with the filter but have since taken it out and feel I get more flavor/better smoke this way: Do y'all feel there's much advantage to using the filter? I understand the health factor but I'm not inhaling the smoke so I figured any benefit would be moot.

 

[CreamyGoodness]

Tex, I think the health benefit (if any at all) of drawing smoke through a CLEAN filter would be more to your tongue/mouth rather than to your throat or lungs...

 

[CreamyGoodness]

Whenever I have smoked a pipe in the past I noticed that the filtered pipes SEEMED to draw a cooler smoke. This could be pure placebo however.

I think I've seen something like that on Monty Python.

Filters can resolve gurgling issues and toung bite problems. Otherwise, they are just something else to keep track of.

 

[Shooter]

Yeah, filters help collect moisture. I use them in pipes that are designed for them, but don't specifially go out of my way to buy filtered pipes. I have a Bjarne that is a beautiful looking pipe and smokes great other than a constant gurgle, regardless of my pace or the type and humidity of the tobacco I'm smoking in it. I often wish it had a filter in it.

Ok cool. i haven't experienced either issue so the filter is staying out.

I finally had a chance to pack a bowl of Virginia in my Rhodesian lastnight while working on the kegorator's new look. Man that is some creamy smooth tobacco. I only smoked about half the bowl (it's a fairly large bowl) and I guess I had forgotten how nice that tobacco is. Did I already say smooth, oh yes. It's slightly sweet without being overpowering, just natural tobacco flavor. Now I remember why this one stuck out in my mind from so many years ago.

Ok just got home from work to check out my new pipe!
Pipesandcigars only shorted me one tin of tobacco from a five tin set. Emailed them and I guess I'll see if they make it right, how hard is it to put five tins in a box?

It may be just me, but this pipesandcigars place doesn't sound so good.

I really don't know? The quality of the tobacco appears good, they shipped it out really stinkin fast. I'm just dumbfounded that they didn't give me five tins in a five tin set. Lol how hard is that? Oh well we'll see I guess

I'm more of a cigar guy but have a pipe and smoke occasionally. This was a gift I received a few weeks ago I need to get up in the shop/mancave.

Pretty cool.

Well that makes two of us in this thread whose order they screwed up. But I will say the tobacco they sent me is exceptional. I wanted a 3.5 oz tin and got 8 oz loose leaf, the tobacco is silky smooth and just as good as I remember it when in a tin.
