Is there a buzz from it? When I was in high school a friend of mine use to dip but gave it up for smoking, ummmm, crack. I guess he's doing better now. He's been under house arrest for assault and wears a cool ankle bracelet...I've been told.

Never tried a pipe?

No, when i was unconverted i smoked 2 packs of Parliaments a day, herb, and drank a ton.

I used Copenhagen on and off for a long time though, and it has a relaxing effect. I need to quit though before my teeth rot out of my head.

I have 2 of the Peterson pipes with the silver around where the stem inserts into the pipe and the Peterson mouthpiece. There is a reservoir in the bottom of the pipe to collect the condensation. You must empty it after you smoke it. I love my Pertersons. I may see if I can take a picture of them and post it. :thumbsup:

Got my pipes today! Thanks brother that was very, very kind.

How do you store tobacco twin, you sent me a lot of it.

I thought this was an interesting video. The smoker said he was a Christian and noticed that pipe smoking is on the raise with younger, Christian men. He also talks about the distinction made between the pipe smoker and the "hobbyist."

enjoy the pipe JM! what kind did you get?? what kind of tobacco? i have started smoking Captain Blacks and it is my favorite so far.

Keep us posted how it goes.

And yeah. I view pipe smoking as sort of a hobby. I already want to collect more pipes and a variety of tobacco. And what goes along with it smoking a pipe too. The system you have of lighting and tamping and tamping more is quite involved when compared to smoking a cigar, etc. I use a golf tee as Twin suggest and it works great. I even enjoy cleaning my pipe.

Enjoy your pipes!

I forgot, the tobacco is Montego Bay and it smells delicious...like spiced rum.

The other night I took my pipe for a walk, I mean the dog...I brought the pipe along. One of my favourite places to sit and think is the cemetery so we headed over there for our walk and a smoke. MacGregor's Creek is a beautiful creek with lots of wildlife and I love how the creek works through the cemetery, with wide grass covered banks and plenty of shade. My dog and I sat on the bank of the creek and just relaxed. I took some time to think about life, death and the resurrection. Here's a video I did last year of the cemetery if you guys are interested.
