she finds pipe smoking very uh, pompous. Something that should be reserved for the very rich, or the very old. It's whatever lol). Yeah, yeah, I have grown a pair since then, and am THINKING of starting again
No way dude...pipes are just as much for the hoi polloi as they are for the gentry. You set her straight brother! :cool: :D Seriously, I was College Pipe Smoker Guy and I was a HIT with the ladies. No joke. Honest. :rolleyes:

My wife doesn't know what a hipster is :)..,

This is what all she see's when I pull out a pipe lol:

PS - this is not me - I stole this pic from here -https://www.tumblr.com/search/bearded%20pipe%20smoking%20men

And even this pic doesn't do it - he's not old enough... and he needs a gaudy(*EDIT* for Zippo) "GREEN" Rolex or something on his wrist LOL - sigh lol.

But you know Zippo - you bring up a good point.

Smoking is a personal endeavour. If you smoke for pleasure and truly enjoy it, no matter how rich or poor, fat or skinny... whatever. No matter how whatever you are, if you truly enjoy your smoke, the passion will shine through and hence an attractiveness will shine through with it.

That's my take anyway - and I am running with it :).

Good post. I was just talking to my wife this weekend about getting mine back out. The refresher was nice as its been about two years.
My wife on the other hand Loves the smell of pipe tobacco and might actually let me smoke in the house.

I would really like to hear how your experience turns out. Seriously.

True Story: So I find my pipe and tobacco after at min 3 years of idling yesterday. The Tobacco I got at my B&M in a ziplock bag - dry as can be. The stuff I got at Walgreens in a ziplock bag - still moist!! What the heck!! It's kind of like an orange never turning brown!

I have placed these tobacco's in my cart to order soon:
Dunhill Nightcap - Nom, nom
Dunhill Early Morning - Hoping this will be a mellow blend I can get into when I get to smoking at a relaxed pace vs trying to keep the bowl lit lol
Drew Estate Meat Pie - Meat Pie!! Come on!! I love meat pie! Who doesn't?... oh and I might have a love thing for DE too
Peterson 3 P's Perfect Plug Pipe Tobacco - this one excites me to no end. I can only imagine the trouble of breaking it apart will be similar to what a hasheesh smoker would have to go through... according to what friends tell me anyway lol

I can't wait!! :)

Not much more I can add to the great answers you've already gotten!

@SeaGarr - make sure you let us know what you think of those. Both the NIghtcap and Early Morning Pipe are generally well-liked among most of us here.

How do you get around paying shipping on cigars? I always do.
Spend enough - free shipping.
On some other sites - wait for the "deal of the day" that you like that includes free shipping on your whole order.
Auctions - yeah, you're paying for shipping.

Oh and hey - I have an order from Small Batch coming in today and I got to tell you, it was refreshing to note that every order includes shipping. Classy really.

Where did you order from?
I'll probably be shot for saying this, but I ordered from Cigars International. I don't know a good pipe pusher as of yet. Any recommendations??

I did good though. The deal of the day wasn't what I wanted, and rather than waiting, I just went ahead and paid for shipping lol. I even upgraded my shipping to 2-3 days. $8.99!! Too funny. The shipping was 1/4 of the total.

Pipe smoking lol...

I usually buy from the same place. Thats where I started and I am a loyal customer.
So you can put that in your pipe and smoke it.

Sorry, had to say it.

Got home and got my pipe out and remembered why I stopped smoking it. I was out of cleaners and kept forgetting to get some. Any ideas for cleaning it now or should cleaners be enough?
