Hey I'm sat in the pub reading Bladeforums! This could be dangerous!

Maybe it's the mouse, try giving it extra food to see if it perks up
I fed the mouse and took the dust bunnies out of the roller ball and things are the same.
Anyway, I'm playing it a little dangerously. I'm running Windows XP even though the experts say to upgrade because Microsoft no longer supports it. I did change from Internet Explorer to Firefox because Firefox isn't targeted as much as IE. If anyone sees a mushroom cloud to the West, that would be me tapping buttons just to see what happens.
Nice find with the Powderhorn Duane.

So Finlay chewed my pipe and made himself sick. I rarely smoke it anyway, but it's nice to have a quiet smoke from time to time on my days off when the weather is good. I had more or less decided on one of the new queen peanuts in D2 with curly zebra wood when it happened. Funds are carefully budgeted these days following the wedding, what do I do guys? Peanut or new pipe, can I hold off smoking till the end of the month?

Buy a corn cob pipe and get the new Peanut 
A cob is a pretty good smoke for the money. Share pics of pipe n Peanut when you get them.

Go ahead and get the peanut, I got your pipe covered. Email me your address, and tell me if you prefer bent stem or strait?

I'm celebrating with my pal Glenfiddich. I imagine that Finlay will remember that things that smell like Dunhill make him throw up, so hopefully he'll leave well alone now.

Hope the pup feels better, Paul. Nice gesture on the pipe, Carl.
Everyone have a great Seder! (If you're doing a Seder. If not, have a happy Passover, anyway!)
If I'm still awake, I hope I remember to look for the lunar eclipse tonight.

Gotta love that stainless steel and plastic construction.
It not for naught that Buck knives are described as "built like tanks".

Cheers jack, up until now I had always just used the end of whatever knife is in my pocket at the time.

Paul, get the peanut. I'd also be happy to send you a pipe; I've got a few more than I can smoke at once. Send me your shipping info, and I'll have one out this week. Could send you a few photos, too, and you can pick your favorite.
Duane, congrats! Glad you found your lost Powderhorn! :thumbup:
It's no fun to lose a favorite, especially if it's as nice as that one. The knife gods and St. Anthony are clinking their beer steins around a bonfire in Valhalla right now, and smiling down on you.
