NUance Posted September 21, 2012 Author Share Posted September 21, 2012 Always wanted to smoke a pipe..not sure why i never just went out and got one. I love me a good cigar though. I smoke the occasional cigar. I bought a box of Partagas a few years ago. Got them in Jamaica. They're long gone now--I never knew if they were the real deal, or knockoffs. A few months back I bought a collection of several briar pipes from a little junk shop down the street. I cleaned one of them up--cleaned the mouth piece, not the bowl. And have been fiddling around, puffing on it. I guess I'm a rookie. I still can't keep the damn thing lit for more than about 20 minutes. lol Quote Link to comment

I know he got it already, just answer the fricking question. I'm not even playing that stupid game. Quote Link to comment

Or more fatherly sounding than talking with the pipe in your mouth! Quote Link to comment
GSG Posted September 21, 2012 Share Posted September 21, 2012 If they get out of line, you can hit him with a sack of sweet Valencia oranges. It won't leave a bruise but it'll let them know who's boss. Quote Link to comment

ADS Posted September 21, 2012 Share Posted September 21, 2012 I can't decide whether to hangout with the girl I'm kind of seeing now or get drun with my buddies. A real stress on my life. Quote Link to comment
NUance Posted September 21, 2012 Author Share Posted September 21, 2012 I can't decide whether to hangout with the girl I'm kind of seeing now or get drun with my buddies. A real stress on my life. Definitely a one-or-the-other situation. No way you can multitask this one. THere's nothing worse for a gf relationship than having her around when you're drinking with the guys. That is, unless you're married to her. : -) Quote Link to comment
GSG Posted September 21, 2012 Share Posted September 21, 2012 Anybody know someone that has one of these? http://www.biggreenegg.com/ I'm going to a free cookout over lunch where they'll be demoing these things. Quote Link to comment

Two of my neighbors have them. They both swear by them. Myself, I think they're a bit pricey. Like couple hunderd more than I'd want to spend on a grill. My Weber is about half the price, and suits me just fine. Quote Link to comment
