Yes ... yes ... tell it baby!


Wait a minute ...
"CKD Community" sounds like a pretty stuffy place. We better wait to see where the mods want to take this. They named it, not me. I'm still looking for the "CKD Bar & Grill" ... just driving through, I think???

I served a bit of time in a Seminary during the dark ages. If you can't talk sex, politics and religion--what's to talk about? :confused: Youz guyz gonna' let me light up my pipe and smoke the place up or do I gotta' go outside with the rest of the "politically incorrect"? I want my "own" chair too BTW! Small demands, but necessary 'cause I got an idea it's gonna' get crowded in here!

You know,

Not enough folks smoke pipes these days. I started smoking a pipe as a teenager in Virginia... mostly 'cause my grandfather did. I still order form this place that hand picks their leaves, hand cases and blends their tobacco and uses only real casings. And they do it in oak barrels!

But I tell you... when you absorb nicotine slowly it is a depressant rather than a stimulant. Smoking a pipe is seriously good for pondering. I guess that's why the Indians did it before having serious meetings.

So come on in, Tim!

Light up!

:evil

Yeah, grandpa's are cool! If more people learned to enjoy the art of pipe smoking there'd be a lot less vallium dispensed in this country!

Tim,

You can have Norm's chair at the corner of the bar. As long as I can get to the Killian's tap, I don't care where I sit.

I've taken my allergy pills, so light 'em if you got 'em.

Jon,

That was a Naughty Democratic Nun, I was sure that you knew that.

Are you sure that it was tobacco the Indians were smokin' ?
I saw 'Shanghai Noon' with Jackie Chan.

Heard the one about the traveling salesman and the farmer with 14 daughters? It seems these 14 daughters were all studying to be trombone players ...

Oh, never mind.

I always assumed those peace pipes contained cannabis or some other mildly hallucinogenic euphoriant. I don't mean that as any slur against any of the native American tribes either. I thought it might have been to induce a "peaceful" state of mind. Besides, it wasn't frowned upon in those days anyway. I don't think it was made illegal in the US until something like the 1930's was it?

I had a psychology professor in college who told us to never trust a pipe smoker who was driving a car...he figured they were too busy daydreaming to be paying any attention to their driving.

This was the same teacher who, while in the middle of a lecture, was walking past a student in the front row, and suddenly turned and screamed at her at the top of his lungs. She let out a yelp and leaped about 4 feet into the air. He quickly took her by the hand, guided her to a chair on the stage of the lecture hall, and called several students to come up and examine her. Her pulse, repiration, skin tone, temperature (and God knows what else), had dramatically changed in a matter of a minute or two. The lecture that day had to do with emotions and how they can affect us physiologically. He made his point, which I clearly remember to this day.

Now that guy knew how to get your attention!

Dennis

Yeah Baby!

Dennis,
That may be so.....I was pulled over one time for going a bit over the speed limit--who-me?--officer?? By the time we were done--he complimented me on the wonderful aroma of the particular blend I enjoy--gave me a kind warning and stated--"anyone who smokes a pipe is too even-tempered to really cause any trouble--just watch your speed now and then". Well....I recall that advice.... everytime I run someone off the road for trying to pass me on the right side. And you know? His warning was taken to heart----I never broke the speed limit again! :evil
That's my story and I'm stickin' to it!
