Cornell & Diehl First Responders Tobacco Review


Cornell & Diehl First Responders Tobacco Review.

My wife and I answered the call for a tobacco review on PipesMagazine.com. Thank you, Kevin for giving us the opportunity and the honor for such a review at such a time!

Also, I salute our soldiers still across seas fighting. Another giant salute to every person who is, or supports emergency personnel. Our First Responders are often overlooked and under-appreciated until we need them. On a day like 9/11, we CANNOT forget.

An unexpected hobby – Daily Campus – Opinion


An unexpected hobby – Daily Campus – Opinion.

The above article is something I’ve felt and have commented on before. This is not a hobby that should die just because people think it’s antiquated or harmful from the tobacco.

Inherently, yes, tobacco is bad health-wise, but in my opinion, that’s not for any government or institution to decide. I’m a grown man, I can and will make the choice for myself, knowing the risks.

Wikipedia + Everything Pipes = Pipedia.org


That’s right, there is now a wikipedia for just about everything related to pipes and collecting. This site was brought to the attention of a community of pipe smokers, collectors, carvers, and enthusiasts. I just felt if it was there, why not add it here. *shrugs*

So, without further delay, here’s Pipedia.org.

  It’s an awesome idea, and I hope it becomes a huge resource of information for beginners and seasoned smokers alike. I know that once I gain more than a few seconds of time and a bit of motivation, I’ll check it out myself.

 Happy puffin’!
