Our farm has had its first twins born! Our goat, Slick, gave birth to two healthy and fine kids yesterday around 3pm. This is exciting as they are the first to be born on our farm. Unfortunately, they had to be born right before the big cold snap comes through tonight. So, I will be out...

I came down with the flu this last weekend.  But the story doesn't end...  I went to the doc this morning due to high BP and some slight chest pains.  I am now in the hospital undergoing tests.  BP is under control.   They think it was just a product of a headache feeding the BP and then the BP...

All, Just to clear the air, I am not sick, or having any health issues. I know that my sale post has had a few people worried. The fact of the matter is that in order to do thing things I want to do, I had to quit smoking a pipe. 1) I have taken a leadership position in my church. I feel...

Hey all! It has been a while since I have been online, though I have checked in once in a while. As a lot of you know, I was let go from my last job in April and I got a new job in May. I have been working my tail off at my new job and have not had a ton of time for anything else...

I was at work and my wife called me and asked if I had gotten a text from her. I hadn't, but asked her what had happened. She had been bitten by a snake. I got the picture and saw that it was a copperhead. I told her to get the neighbor and to go to the ER. I was across town. I know that I...

I have not been very involved in this site for the past few months due to home/ work / general life. As some of you may remember, I lost my job almost two months ago. I found a temp job, but with all the rain down here, I was literally rained out of work. So, I called up a company I had...

So, I lost my job today. After 5 years, and a major change in management, the management found a way to get me out of the company. I knew it was coming, so I wasn't surprised. Needless to say, I will be spending a lot more time job hunting and will be curbing future pad and tad for a while...

So,  I finally got to cross the Willie Nelson concert off of my bucket list.  Yay!  It was an awesome time.  My wife and I really enjoyed our time there.  I represented the pipe world by smoking McCranie's Somerled in my BSP pipes.  Everywhere I turned, people were telling me how nice my pipes...

This is a podcast, but the story is pretty cool. It is horror genre, but more of a suspense. Ol' Dagon Dark

So,  I am re-arranging my office for my growing collection of pipes and my expanding cellar.  This office contains my computer, cd player, books, and ham radio stuff as well.  So, while showcasing my pipes, I subconsciously made a pun.  For those who don't know me very well, I do NOT like puns...

Or Nearly so....... So, on March 26th, I will be able to cross off my "bucket list" an item which I truly thought would never be attainable. I will be seeing Willie Nelson in concert! Not only will I get to see Willie Nelson, but Merle Haggard will be joining him. Two of my favorite...

So, I was cleaning a GBD Perspex stem today and realized that if I put one end of the bristle pipe cleaner in a drill, that I could get the bristles cleaning the gunk out alot easier.  So, I did that and it worked really really well after soaking the stem in some alcohol. Well, I figured if it...

I was in a little second hand shop this last November, and the proprieter had a collection of 22 Zane Grey novels on sale for $3 each. I talked her down to $50 for the whole set shipped :). Recently, I have enjoyed becoming re-acquainted with this wonderful author's books. He writes extremely...

**Mods, if this is in the wrong area, please feel free to move.** I have been shopping on ebay since 2004. I won a used lighter (nimrod commander) that was listed as working with a loose lid. I got the lighter and there was no spark. So, I put a flint in it and still no spark. Come to find out...

Yes, I am a glutton for punishment. I traveled approximately 6000 miles in 6 days, from Houston, to the Appalachians, to the Great Lakes, to the Rockies, and back to Houston. This was strictly a work trip. We had a narrow window weather wise, as well as the need to complete the work before...

Fatman sent me a package this week while I was out of town. Unbeknownst to me, he had read a comment on the this forum that I had posted stating that I had been wanting to try a Big Ben Pipo pipe, but had just not gotten one yet. I was unsure about a nosewarmer pipe. Well, being the very...

A while ago, I was sending out samples of a new blend called "The Mellow Monk". It is blended by Justforhim.com . I am not affiliated with them in any way, but I do love this blend. It is now available on their website under their custom english blends section. Apparently, it is Perique...

I will tell you what! It is wonderful to come home on Friday after a rough week and find a bomb from Alaska sitting in my easy chair. Clay had offered up some beeswax a few weeks back, and I had mentioned that I would like to get some. He sent the beeswax, all right, but the sneaky brother...
