New member saying hello

Hello all,

I signed up on the board a couple days ago, but have been lurking around for a while now. Though I might as well add myself to the list of members. I'm a fairly young pipe smoker, for which I get harassed all the time, but I refuse to give it up. Far to pleasurable of an experience for that. Just wanted to say, glad to be here. Very Happy

A big howdy and welcome! You can tell your harassers that pipe smokers live an average of 3 years longer than non-smokers.

Welcome aboard

Didn't know that pipe smokers lived longer than non-smokers, although I was aware that their years were more pleasant Smile

Be sure to stow away some tins now for your old age.

Welcome to the finest place in the known universe. When detracters make disparaging remarks about your pipe smoking, take a thoughtfull pull on your pipe, remove it and smile at them enigmatically. They will soon turn away in embarassment because they know in their hearts that you have found the true key to inner peace. Wink
