Yes, typically if you see a hookah around here then someone is smoking marijuana in it, haha. That is true. In fact I doubt they'd believe people actually smoke tobacco out of them...that's what cigarettes are for (of course Red Man might be even more popular than the cancer sticks).

I am truly sorry; I was just joking. I now wish I hadn't ever opened my mouth. I apologize to all. Especially to SapJ who I offended the most.

Haha, I think it's all right. You didn't offend me, and I doubt you offended Josh.

No, I don't even know how you think you offended me, haha.

I am not sure what you think you said that offended me, but I take no offense to anything you've said.

It's just that I was making fun on Kentuckians and I know you live in Ky. as I do.

Someone show me pics of your pipes so that I can be envious.

**Athanasius** · 12-17-2004, 03:04 PM

ml: I only have two. The Dr. Grabow Wal-Mart special that I recommend to the first poster (and which Benj was pictured with)...and an anonymous briarwood pipe I picked up second hand in London. I really like my anonymous pipe.

There is a sweet picture of my and Benj smoking on the porch somewhere......

I hope to get another pipe (or 3!) on my trip to London in January. I'm really craving a churchwarden.

Or you could go for the best of both worlds and smoke some Black & Milds. The ultimate taste for the ghetto palate!

I would like to have a dollar for all the pipes I have left on the golf course.

One should have a pipe for every day at least. They tend to get a little juicy when you smoke them often. You can get cheap pipes that are very good. It has been my experience that the cheap ones smoke the best anyway. I have several expencive (sp) ones thart I rarely smoke. It is my understanding that the best briar comes from there. I hope you can find a good one that you like. If not send me the ones that you don't, I smoke them all.

When I suggested that we get a couple of cigars it took me like 10 min. to convince them that I was serious

. Then, they wouldn't go in for it.

So, you say that smoking a pipe is better then a cigar. I will have to get right on that then because I have always wanted to enjoy a pipe. I think I'll stop by a Wal-Mart on Monday or Tuesday and pick one up.

If you buy the tobacco from the dept. store put an apple in the pouch for a while. The tobacco gets very dry and bites thus making you not want to try it again. Oh! just a slice of apple or the core. Try a mild tobacco first.
A story of how I came to smoke the one I prefer. I went to the tobacco shop to buy a pipe and asked the cutest girl behind the counter what she would recommend. She said that when her boss smoked Hazelnut she wanted to follow him all over the store. I bought 5 pounds of it. Though I have never had any cute girls following me around. One can still hope though. What I usually get is that my grandfather smoked a pipe and you remind me of him. How sad.

anathema- yah i'm in the phoenix area. there's the oasis in tempe and then there's coffe society in south phoenix. those are the best two off the top of my head. but pm if you need more info.

I'll see if I can't round up some pics, but my brother and myself, along with a couple friends hollowed out a pineapple and made a bong/hookah hybrid and smoked some lovely pipe weed through. The pineapple added a nice citrusy sweet taste to the smoke; it was quite lovely.
