[QUOTE="Anonymous, post: 145099"] Add that, since their stems have all been (when necessary) upgraded (vulcanite with substandard airways replaced by lucite with proper dimensions for their bores), there is no (as in, Zero) correlation between how much they originally cost and the degree of all-around satisfaction and contentment they provide. With one exception, age and shape(s) are their only common denominator(s). Three are "names" (Loewe, Charatan & Castello) ; the others, anywhere from blue collars (Peterson, Parker) to no-names (Bewlay, Made in Denmark). A word to the wise : girlfriends and wives involve different parameters. Girlfriends come, have their moments, and go again. In the long run, while entertaining, beyond a certain point, they're a waste of time. And money. As the G-rated version of an Amish proverb puts it : "[i]Kissing[/i]" don't last. Good cooking does."
