A great write-up. So nice to see something positive on the subject for once.

"...and pinwheels of "luxury bullseye flake," the latter which requires pinching the tobacco loose from a molded round shape."
For some reason "pinwheels of" sounds so much better than the industry "curly cut" or "spun cut," or "coins." From now on, in casual conversation I will be going with "a pinwheel and a half of Stokkebye LBF" (although I do not think I can stop using "coin" when referencing Escudo, given the original image intended).

Nice article! I hope it helps you folks out. I only wish there was a similar group here in W-S!
"WHEW"!!!
And here I was thinking, what did Yak post now.

That is really nice. I'm glad to know Chattanooga has a pipe crowd. I'm planning on moving up that way in about 2 years (after my youngest graduates HS).
As I've posted before, we have a great B&M here in Jackson where I can go and smoke and have great conversations. I keep bringing up the idea of a pipe club and JD thinks it's a great idea but that's about as far as it gets.
The only pipe-smokers I know are the ones that I meet at The Country Squire but what's interesting to me is that I'll be sitting there and see a bunch of different guys come in and buy tobacco but they never sit and visit. There must be a bunch of people who only smoke in their homes and don't divulge to others of their pastime. That's weird for me because, although I smoke alone a lot, I prefer to smoke with others for the relaxation and lively conversation.
Glad to see you made the news in a very positive light.

Very nice to see something positive about our Brotherhood/Sisterhood, that shot of you Dan makes you look very enigmatic, good to see some Sisters there too, wow, what a wonderful array of ink that Sister is sporting, delightful Meerschaum, was it a members pipe!?
