Hello from Mid-Mo


Been a pipe smoker for close to 30 years. I've tried many fine tobaccos and many bottom of the barrel tobaccos. I've smoked super expensive stuff that I hated and super cheap stuff that I loved.

I'm 50 years old and was forced to quit working almost 2 years ago due to a bad leg. I'm stuck at home, (and often in bed with my leg propped up), and have little else to do other than smoke my pipe and wish I was still working.

My internet useage has gone up considerably recently because of boredom, (God I wish I was still working), and I now tend to get rather long winded. If I talk too much just tell me to shut up.

Shut up! emoticon emoticon emoticon
Just kidding amigo...glad to have you at GPSF...talk all you want. We're a small group here, more family than forum...welcome to the fold.

Notice that you're a burley-phile. Not my thing, but you should get along just fine with Rob and Jim. emoticon

What part of Mizzery you in? Summersville here, near Mtn. View and Eminence.

I'm in Owensville. It's right between Nowhere and Noplace. The closest I am to anything anyone might know is Washington where the cob pipes are made. It's about 35 miles from here.

Know right where that is....go south on 19 to Eminence, then west to Summersville! Piece of cake! Around 125-130 miles...a three hour drive on Hwy. 19....very scenic though lots of hills, twists and turns. I love that drive!
