I am still new to the pipe world so forgive my newbness.

I talked to the rep and I will def be getting one of each to try them out. Recently did a newbie sampler with a friend for 20+ pipe blends. Recently tried some aged 965 with was great!

Also met up and talked with Erik Nording for a while. Met him a few times but this was the first time I was able to discuss pipes with him and his son. I wasnt allowed to buy a pipe there since I did not have an account. We talked for about 30 minutes and discussed pipe making, materials etc. Super awesome guy as is his son.

As I was walking away he called out my name and gave me the simple churchwarden I was looking at. :-)

That guy rocks. Not to mention he is absolutely insane(in a good way) and hyper and knows how to party. He will pretty much out drink anyone.

That's great news Brother. Sounds like he understands what it's really all about.

He will out drink rocky. I hung out with both last year.

Stayed up drinking and smoking in the hotel lobby with rocky and a couple other guys wed night/thursday morning till 5am. LOL He called one of his reps and made him bring down a case of beer case we ran out of liqour. :-)

Rocky was ripped and he kept saying we were doing the right thing smoking in the non smoking lobby. :-)
