    First FDA regulation casualty I've heard of

    I read that email about the monthly blends to. I cant help but think its there way of weeding out an item that maybe wasn't worth there time selling, maybe the monthly blend wasn't selling well. Just my thought on it.

    My everyday blades are persona blues, but I've had some Derby samples and I found that in a couple of my razors they work pretty good.

    What 'baccy did you start with?

    My first baccy was an aromatic from the local cigar shop smoked in a cob that I bought with it. I forget what kind of tobacco it was but it was good enough to get me into pipe smoking, and that first cob just seems to get better all the time. My first tinned tobacco was Golden Sliced smoked in a...

    Are you afraid of heights?

    I'm afraid of heights. I feel uneasy on bridges and when close to any steep drop off, but I don't mind flying.

    Few new pipes to show.

    The billiard looks perfectly shaped and I like the way the stem ads a little bit of color/flair to the classic shape.Both pipes look great, and that axe looks like it has some character to it too. Very nice.

    Shaving soap recommendation

    I like the shave soap from Classic Shaving. Its a great soap for the money and is available in a wide selection of scents. It lathers well and I think for the $5.99 price its one of the better soaps out there.

    Bit protectors

    I would say give the bit protectors a good try for wile before you make your decision. I use them on all my pipes, and find they are more comfortable than just the bit. Another good benefit is that if you should choose to sell off a pipe you have a nice clean bite free bit.

    Would you make the Trip...

    I would say don't go. You already have time limits on the side trip so it probably wont be relaxing or fun. To me vacation is about taking my time and enjoying, you could order everything you want online, save on gas, and not be hurried. I live about the same distance from Boswells and haven't...
