RE: Typewriters: The Ultimate Writing Machines
Thirty pipes is a lot to choose from, it's not surprising you wouldn't smoke any one of them all that often. So far I have one decent Peterson, two cheap, no-name basket pipes, and a couple Missouri Meerschaum corn cobs.
It was only the other day I was thinking about making a post to see if there were many pipe smokers on here. I know youtube and instagram have a fairly active pipe community and thought maybe we could get one going on steemit too.
I might check out that pen. My only worry is that my handwriting is so bad that a fountain pen might be wasted on me, haha. Oh, well, only one way to find out.
I spent about a dozen years working in a couple of tobacco shops, so I tended to accumulate a few briars. Actually I got that meerschaum from a sales rep for free when the shop took on a dozen CAO pipes for its inventory.
Funny, no one has used the "pipe" or "pipes" tag yet. There are just a few "cigar" and "cigars" posts, though, and only handful of "smoking". Maybe we can lead the charge!
Wow, well you really can't go wrong with a free meerschaum, or any free pipe to be fair.
Well, there's no time like the present to try and populate those tags. If you're feeling up to it I think you should be the one to lead the charge, not only because your writing is far better and more engaging than mine, but also because you have more experience. I only started my little pipe smoking hobby at the start of this year whereas you've worked in the industry to some degree, haha.
Either way, I do have a tobacco related post in the works, I just have to get around to actually doing some research on the subject.
Thanks for the compliments. I think your writing is just fine, and the thing about writing is it gets better the more you do it. Like breaking in a pipe!
I will probably have some smoking posts coming up soon. Welcome to the hobby!
Practice makes perfect, right?
I look forward to reading them when you post them.
