This is one of the reasons I post more when I can. Make it like a discussion. Someone said (not here) that pipe smoking is not compatible with discussion. I called BS on that. It's is about thought, but what good is thought without discussion. I'm not disagreeing with you, but it seems to me a Wrestling thread would be more interesting, focused and get more responses from more members. That sounds like fun to me. Maybe somebody will even post an ol' Haystack Calhoun video! Now smoking Robert McConnell Scottish Flake in a 1970's medium bend big bowl rusticated Sienna colored Savinelli Estella with a pearl grey stem. This will take a while to smoke. I could understand leaving this thread video free. Often, mentioning something here leads to another thread being started. But how would we know it unless someone posted what they were doing while they were smoking. To me (aside from videos), wrestling is no different than mentioning what you are watching or listening to while you're smoking. Which is worse: 1) I am watching wrestling while smoking? 2) I am watching (insert tv or radio show) while smoking? The second option is brought up all the time here.

I've posted my share of videos on this thread, too. Just thought a thread about wrestling would be fun and get more attention to the Sacred Sport of Kings.

As I said, many threads start out as a side note here. I'm all about side notes. Admittedly, I hate structure

Carter Hall in a Dr Grabow Riviera Billiard. More java in the mug. Cheers.
** a few words in passing about what your watching, etc takes up far less server space than posting videos in a smoking thread.

Not smoking anything currently. Does that make my post irrelevant? HAPPY BIRTHDAY MIKE!!! That's all for now.

This thread dies in a few hours. So in March WAYS, nothing but smoke, correct?

I disagree. I've been here since there were six of us talking to each other. Nothing wrong with a little personal content about the day added to a post. JimInks ?

I like keeping the thread clean as much as anybody but no harm in mixing in the total experience. Weather, drink, what's on the box, whatever? I'm cool if everybody else wants to do away with this. Clarity folks....clarity.

Mark, I am truly not sure where you are going with this. This is not said with anyone in particular in mind, so please do not take it that way, nor anyone else. The problem is that when you get past the initial smoke only rule (if there were such a thing) then who draws the line between personal and out of line? Beyond the mods, who have total say so, there is no cabal nor secret police. Then you are left with someone pointing to someone saying "that's out of line". To me, that is more hurtful than people having to scan past a personal note. Frankly, I get quite hurt when that happens to me. Often I see a post like that and it seems to be singling out someone. If it is me I do take offense when I see that some get by with what others get called on. Frankly, after we get done with this "hours left" thread I will not be posing in WAYs anymore.

I'm cool if everybody else wants to do away with this. Clarity folks....clarity. Again, who draws the line? Someone mentions Gunsmoke and people respond to Gunsmoke. Someone mentions wrestling and gets a response and all hell breaks loose. It's not worth trying to figure it out

Of course, I'm not the deciding entity.

After a rough day at work and in the market, I’m thinking of about 8 fingers of whisky and a bowl of 2011 Nightcap. If one doesn’t put me on my butt, hopefully the other one does

I just finished a bowl of McClelland Blackwoods Flake in a Don Warren Freehand sitter with a plateau rim and butterscotch acrylic stem. I was reading ''American Tabloid' by James Ellroy.
I was going to post a video but now I'm not sure. It's an hour+ long, and it captures me smoking and reading.
