[pipefriend]

man he sent you a shitload of stuff lucky

[larshermanns]

The internet offers a lot of possibilities for pipe smokers. Pipe smoking is not so familiar, even not in Germany. So, it's very interesting to join other pipe smokers in the internet... international! Here you can get in touch with pipe smoker in Asia, Africa, USA, Europe, ...

You're from the netherlands? I spent one year in Budel from 1995-1996.

Cheers

Lars

I grew up close to Budel!!!

[Rockhorns76]

Hmmm.. apologies if this is a multiple post. I've enjoyed your videos very much. As to a pipe club, any/all interested parties can join up here if you wish:

cheers!

Hey PipeFriend, You've been a great help in my getting into pipe smoking. And hooray for an international virtual brotherhood of pipe smokers. I would like to smoke a pipe with you sometime! I have a skype account, send me a message if you would be interested.

[WhoaitsGage]

wow, this is getting better all the time, im just starting to realize this. ill be making a new youtube account to post videos of me and my hometown brotherhood. it should be something like "lonesomepineboys"

[Fyarl666]

Have you tried the Christmas Cheer yet? I saw some of that in the store the other day, but it was sealed, obviously, and I couldn't get a whiff of it. They wanted $52 bucks for it, which was not going to happen. What is it like? I imagine it to taste like gingerbread and nutmeg and other sorts of holiday spices.

[pipebearjr]

I agree, YouTube is fast becoming the International House of Pipes (IHOP), not to be confused with the International House of Pancakes (IHOP).

But seriously, I do think that there is a brotherhood of pipe smokers forming here, and it's great to see.

Since it's rare to encounter other pipe smokers in daily life, it's great to see everyone here.

Though I can't really afford to share tobaccos and such, I greatly enjoy the exchange of ideas, and smoking on cam with other pipe guys. Cheers!

[lusefer]

do you have to use a certin type of tobacco with pipes or could you use just regular tobacco like buglers or something like that?

and how much do pipes usualy go for (like ones you can get in a store [not a specilty shop but like a smoke shop or supermarket or something])

[PipeFriendCHS]

Pipes go from $10 on eBay to $10K or so. I suggest Pipe tobacco from a tobacconist, not from Walgreens or something

[lusefer]

hey thanks man..greatly aprichiated :D

[djfc1962]

Hi,

You really must be the funniest dutch guy I ever saw!

You're doing a great job.

Hartstikke leuk.

[PipeFriendCHS]

Bedankt!!!

[DanteMoodyFilms]

You got alot of good stuff man.

Oh, and those pipe cleaners in the yellow box, the cotton ones, their the ones that I use. :D

Only thing about them is that they leave stuff inside of the pipe sometimes.

Still work great.

[pipespel]

[jynxhaste]

man, haha you must have good karma.

[balkansmoker]

I just said that to jynxhaste the other day I sent him an e-mail called the brotherhood of the pipe and I think we are. I like that we share and are so Kind to each other if you could only imagine if the rest of the world would be so kind. We have friends all over the world and no racists or biggots I am proud to smoke with all of you. To A new year accross the world merry christmas happy honnika,rammadan,quansika and many more hope for the new year. Glad to be part of you tube!

[earlpearlpipe]

Hey thanks for responding so quick! I agree this community is great, and the generosity is awesome. I've just recently stumbled upon pipe smoking online like this. Thanks again for the response and hopefully i will start posting some videos myself. Merry pipemas.

[Uuq114]

I enjoy watching you receive gifts because there is no question at all in my mind that you deserve them!

[twarner21609]

I'm still waiting for a pipe of the month club. A group of people who take turns picking out local tobaccos to share with the rest of the group. Share video responses to them and what not.

[Laughter1099]

I agree completely! The online fellowship prompted me to start my own "Virtual Smoking Lounge" here on YouTube. Like others have said, I am extremely limited financially; so it's difficult for me to be as generous as I would like. But I enjoy sharing information and offering assistance to whomever I can. Getting an answer to a question or some helpful advice isn't as exciting as receiving a package in the mail, but it's another way this fine online community is promoting our wonderful hobby.

[turbografx16]

I think you're very right. I haven't seen a pipe smoker in public in quite a few years and even then I only saw older gentlemen. I don't think I'd ever seen a younger person smoking a pipe (besides the hash variety) before looking on youtube.

[SmokinInCanada]

Yeah I do think there is a "brotherhood" of pipe smokers online. We are so few and far between that unlike Cigar smokers, when you see a fellow pipe smoker its so uncommon you seem to want to share what you can about the hobby.

I do notice alot more of the "care pakages" being sent out, with people showing their generosity of the hobby. If I had the funds or the means I would try to also, however I know alot of people dont like shipping to Canada so I'm out of luck there :p

[mushrmhd666]

ya it does seem like theres a brotherhood on youtube, even thought i never got anything from anyone, but thats not what matters, Its about sharing tips and other great pipe related things.

[PipeFriendCHS]

I started giving things away and next thing I know the karma is returned

[rogermoore27]

wait a minute. I remember you bought a large cabinet for your pipe and tobacco, so how come you had your stuff scattered on the floor?

[PipeFriendCHS]

It was just for effect. I do keep it in cabinet usually

[mushrmhd666]

damn thats awesome!
