straight up SWR Aero in a brand new Dr.G full bent medium billiard from CVS. Ugly pipe, straight grain, bright orange finish, two great big ol' leaves scratched in the side and front of the bowl. ...and the stamping was done after the finish applied, buffing.

One great smoking pipe!

BW, if you had been to the factory with us, you could have seen one of those leaves being carved before your very eyes!  Takes about 3 seconds and yes, it's done by hand, but not with a carving knife.

Did anyone remember to ask about those Eagle and Deer carvings we've seen on some DG pipes? Bet they don't do those by hand.

That's one of the things we forgot about, DrB.  All the more reason to have a bunch of us available for the next tour.

When TED and I stopped at JRs, I got several tins of McClellands stuff -- I have always been very pleased with their product.  I just found that I seem to have a fondness for Virginia's myself, and I think No. 25 was one of them.  I also got some Erinmore, which I have always heard about and never tried, busted open the tin as TED drove me to the airport in Charlotte, and found that I pretty much like it, too.  Thanks for tipping us off about JRs, Steve!  They had more selection of pipe tobaccos than anywhere I have been in Texas.  --RJ--

Well, unfortunately, no -- it never even crossed my mind after being overwhelmed with everything else!  See, you were supposed to make it so that you could ask that question!  Actually, YOU HAVE TO MAKE IT NEXT TIME, as you are about the best question asker I know of!  --RJ--
