I agree with Rad... I was hoping for a stinky ebonite 2.0!

"but rev, isn't smoking a sin?"

well I suppose if one were to smoke to excess it would be a sin

"but what would be smoking to excess?"

Why smoking two pipes at once of course

I do think that random and mike messers threads have MB beat but it was still entertaining while it lasted.

Someone said in another post that this type of person pops up on the forum every year or two and that person was right. The question is why?

I did.

I understand the desire to watch a train wrench as it happens, but it generates too much work for me. PM's, restricted setting, reviewing posts before allowing them to be posted, and that sort of thing loose their fizz after awhile. You guys like to poke the bear, then I'm the zoo keeper that gets bit after hours when I'm scooping poop.

Sorry.

That must be an American thing, huh?

I'm actually a little depressed. No one's ever told me that I'm a train wrench that lost its fizz before....

Yes, it makes a lot of sense if you consider it.
See, a Train Wrench is a lot like most pipemakers. Its an awkward tool, for one thing.
Its not much to look at. Its good at performing a very specific function, and outside of that is almost entirely useless.
You guys were so busy laughing, you missed some valuable insight from Tyler.

But then, he might have meant "Trained Wench" ? I'm really not sure.

I also wanted to point out, because it ties in with the spirit of this conversation;
The seller of that "Train Wrench" on ebay is certain it is a "Train Wrench" because he found it next to some railroad tracks.... "This was found along the railroad so we know it can be used on the trains".... :D
You're welcome :thumbsup:
