Latest Pipe-Related Purchase Thread

So a couple small items today. The rack was originally 75, then marked down to 50, I ended up getting it for 40 bucks, just needs a nice little rub down with Murphy Oil Soap...but then don't we all.

The Bull's Eye tobacco I got on a whim, I tried the Dunhill De Luxe Navy Roll and really enjoyed it, the guy at the shop said this would be more mild that that but I figured what the hell it's not that expensive.

They were out of folding stands so I asked if I could buy one of the ones in the cases that they were displaying pipes on, he couldn't find them in the system so he charged me 5 bucks

The lighter, well I only have torch lighters at home so I wanted something more specialized for my pipes.

I might end up moving the pipe rack to the mantle.. sadly the mantle is painted white so we'll see.

Yes sir, growing up our thing was playing cards at night, it was good cheap entertainment, every night I would play card games or cribbage with my mom.

I agree. Great way to pass the time and be with family or friends. About 6 years back or so, I was playing with my mom. Dad was sitting in the recliner reading a book. Front door to their place up in the mountains of Pauma Valley was open. Quite night, with only the coyotes howling in the distance. No electronics were on. Mom was laying out some cards, counting off, and then started moving her pegs, and that is when I caught her "cheating." I said, "Hold on a second sister Suzy. I think we miscounted a bit here," and I called the old lady out. "You just cheated on your son. I can't believe it." Mom started laughing so hard, I thought she was gonna pee in her panties. I turned to my Dad, who was just sitting there shaking his head, and I said, "can you believe that crap?" He said, "and now you know why I don't play cards with your mother buddy!"
