Long rant - "Smoking a pipe is hard work"

[Justpipes]

Mr. Binsbergen,

Anyone with any pipe sense knows that Walnut is a fine smoke and obviously you are a brother with a lot of pipe sense!

I am sorry that it is becoming so difficult for you to acquire the grand leaf! The next time my son is over there I will make it a point to visit and bring you some.

HAR!!!

Obviously Frost hasn't joined the rubber room.

Just did :twisted:

 

[Frost]

p.s....... RUBBER ROOM..... where is that? never been there......... I really haven't connected with a brother that I did not get on with.......... Has anybody ever met a pipe smoker that is nasty? besides Joseph Stalin.... and I am sure deep down he was a pleasant guy! :lol!:

Look at the main forum page, scroll down to where it says "joining the asylum".

Awesome. I smoke "cigerrettts and cegars" too.

There's a certain trance like state I go into while selecting my pipe from the rack, picking which tobacco I'll smoke in it, filling the bowl, lighting it, tamping it, finally lighting it and then tamping and lighting once again as I progress down the bowl. It's the closest thing to meditation that I do. Though it sounds corny, in a sense it's my spirituality. It's my own Tai Chi :lol:

Frost,

I don't think you could have put in words my sentiments more perfectly. I have contemplated this many times. More often on those days when all I want is to be at home, on the couch, relaxing, smoking, all being quiet in my little world and just being able to reflect.

These moments come few and far between nowadays, and when they do, they are usually "timed" meaning I have an hour free before I have to go do "this or that" and I never truly get to let my guard down and enjoy the moment. I think God has been working hard with me lately to get me to understand these moments and that they are what I make of them.

Great post, and great way to open up the discussion on something I think we all deal with on a different level.
