You seem pretty enthusiastic about the pipe idea, so I would suggest this to think of: It's likely that, assuming you take to the pipe and enjoy it, you'll want to make it very personal. To this end I'd suggest looking for a good starter pipe, something acceptable and interesting to you, that can be "upgraded" for want of a better term... A different (aftermarket, so to speak) mouthpiece, bowl inserts, longer or shorter stem depending on what you decide you initially prefer. Obviously the vast range of "customization" comes with the tobacco and blends thereof (and I would highly recommend that you cultivate an understanding relationship with a good tobacconist because this will make things SO awesome for you in the short term), but people often overlook the idea of swapping out parts in lieu of buying a fresh pipe.

Got to die of something. If it weren't for my grands I would still smoke. Who wants to die like a zombie slowly rotting away? Not me. I want to go out saving a busload of young nuns from going over the edge of a cliff... as virgins.
Hmmm. Y'all made me think of my dads old pipe I smoked for a bit which was this big bulls head with horns but it wasn't where I thought it would be. Now I won't be able to rest until I find it.

Little-known fact: Me smoking is good for YOU. Nobody wants to have to deal with me sans fumee and that's the goddamn truth. Y'all can poo poo how you like, but I guarantee that you will agree that my smoking is good for you if you ever have to be close enough to see my head over the curve of the earth when I don't have smokes.

I took your smokes, and hid them in the White House behind a cheeseburger.

I am lucky to say nicotine has never been habit forming for me. I used to do a bit of dip when I was a teenager. Tried cigarettes a handful of times in high school and didn't like them. I bought a carton once in college to join my roommates in their post-meal ritual and never finished it. After a week I still couldn't stand the things. A good cigar is OK, but I usually lose interest/motivation before finishing one. But smoking a nice pipe while chilling out and reading or listening to music, or just sitting on the deck in the evening with a glass of scotch - that is a vice I enjoy (all too rarely now with young kids).

GBM since you asked, I am well! Living a very normal grown-up life. Crazy to think I first signed up in '99, that would make it coming on almost 20 years. Not that I post much, the poster's life is long gone. The vast expanses of time have obscured most of the memory. Anyway good to see all's well with you peaaaace x
