Attention New Pipers: Even The "Vets" Struggle Sometimes!

[NeverBend]

...One day they smoke like a dream, the other they bite you and make your life miserable

Sounds like my wife.

Mark,

I took extreme measures today. W.A. Mozart's Requiem in D. Serious stuff. It's working (of course), Louisiana Flake tastes like I'm kissing it's ugly little cousin with acne but at least I'm in the same family again.

Directions for use:

1. Put on (any) Mozart at least 5 minutes before smoking is to commence.
2. Get a preferred beverage.
3. Select pipe and tobacco
4. You know the rest.
5. Thank Pete

Sounds like all of our wives.

Fixed the quote for you there Pete.

I agree there are a ton of factors and combinations of pipes and tobaccos. But, to me, that is part of what makes it so much fun! Finding a blend that really sings in a pipe is very rewarding. And the hunt half the fun.

Yeah, I know that line is well past it's sell-by date, but I've been waiting forty-five years to use it; forgive me!

I'm bummed...I have no idea which box in which closet my CDs are, and while I loaded all the Beethoven onto my hard drive, Mozart is not there. The only other thing I have is some Rachmaninoff, but the disc is badly damaged. And you know what they say: if it's not baroque, don't fix it...
