Why Do Folks Cup & Un-cup The Bowl Opening

[The.Sheepdog]

but dont worry about it if you puff like a choo choo sometimes. I sure do when I am upset or very tired. It still calms me and taste good to me. I threw away the book on pipe etiquette. Much too 'old British' for me. I dont even wear a satin smoking jacket! Oh the horrors!!

Light it and enjoy it any way you want or can.
