    knives

    Knives are banned at my place of work as well - they, no matter how small, are considered dangerous weapons. It is asinine. I could jab someone's eyes out with a pencil as easily as cutting them. If one wants it to be EVERYTHING is a weapon. How did we get to this point? I used to take a...

    knives

    I always carry a knife - a basic tool I'm suprised all people don't carry. I almost laugh when coworkers regard it as a weapon (seriously).

    Baker's 7 year 107 proof Bourbon?

    Booker's is another from the makers of Basil Hayden, Knob Creek etc. It's expensive and 126 proof or so - but it it so good. I don't have a lot of cash, but I buy a bottle every year of two and have a small glass every now and then as a tr eat - it's great. For more quotidian drinking I go...

    Peterson pipes

    I have a Peterson Killarney - it was my second pipe, and I like it, but I would prefer it to be without the varnish. I also have a peterson army model 999 which I like much better - it's in the running for my favorite pipe. Then there are my two Pete seconds - a billiard and a bent billiard...
