yup, I'm a last minute planner, but if anyone else is too and wants to split a room at Chicago, let me know

if I was going, id do it just to fondle all of the briar youre probably bringing

hahaha, the only briar I'm bringing is a case of pipes to smoke
next year I hope to have a few tables and plenty of fondlable blocks for your carressing pleasure

I just bought all his briar anyways. Or at least 250 blocks of it.

If you want to be able to make any pipe, you've got to start with a block that's just right. Otherwise, the grain just won't look as nice.

that 1950's Algerian has a distinct and pleasant smell when working with it. It gives a whole new definition to 'seasoned'. And the coloring that is darker than most briar, shows the block has been seasoned for a long long time, like 50-60 years. There is no more left (in my stock), so unless you have a time machine to go back to the 50's, you won't see much more of it. Except for Sandahl, he'll see it for a few years

now back to the topic, who's gonna split a room with me? I may just have to suspend a rock climbing tent on the outside of the building. Who has a room with an operative window?

Man I would if I didn't have 2 room mates already! Good news is, there always seems to be somebody pop up that needs to split a room before the show gets here.
