"An unpopular opinion concerning politics or religion lies concealed in the breast of every man; in many cases not only one sample, but several. The more intelligent the man, the larger the freightage of this kind of opinions he carries, and keeps to himself." --Mark Twain
This blog is about my hobby of collecting and smoking pipes. I do not collect the very finest and most expensive pipes. I do not have a large income and I collect the pipes that I can afford. Such is one of the beauties of pipe smoking: there's room for everyone, if you can find your niche.
I have three other blogs: Blogonomicon, wherein I focus on my other interests of books and music and blog on various other topics that interest, amuse, and outrage me; The Last Ancient House, which is a collection of fiction and poetry inspired by H.P. Lovecraft; and The Hunter Chronicles: The Diary of a Vampire Hunter, another fiction project which is still largely a work in progress.
The Cellar
You can view my infrequently updated stash of pipe tobacco at my online tobacco cellar.
When men smoked pipes and wore hats: Pat Garrett and friends
Pat Garrett (the tall one standing) and friends pause for a photo on their way to George Curry’s inauguration as governor of New Mexico in 1907. The man kneeling, second from right, has a pipe. I haven't been able to identify him.
