You could have put that one in the "what is it?" thread. I figured it was some kind of pasta since the others were also food, but I had no idea. I like it and the coffee one.

Really nice contrasting textures. Are these pipes ever put to use or are they just for display?

I smoke a couple of times a week. Pipes, cigars, tobacco and their history are a hobby for me more than smoking is.

I have a pretty decent English tobacco collection, around forty pipes and not too many cigars in an igloodor.

I had a tape stuck in an old VCR and I had to take the VCR apart to get it out. I was enjoying myself, so I kept going, dis-assembling the VCR as far as I could, back down into original component pieces, which I have kept in a cardboard box in my closet and have no idea why. I plan, vaguely, to build a robot or something someday.

I also got a nice red LED. A cheap speaker. Some RCA connectors. Etc. Don't know what I'm going to do with them. Maybe make a robot. I've got a cabinet in the basement with a bunch of motors from stuff I've taken apart over the years. I might see if I can somehow isolate the power supply from this thing. That would be cool.

Pictures of a Bearded Robberfly, I wish I took. :smack:

Kitsune I love the quills, and that fly is very fly Bruce.

A good friend of mine is a master pipe maker... this is a rare all straight-grain pipe. Great to see and hold something I will never be able to afford, a true thing of beauty.

Any idea what causes straight grain briar to develop? Uh....it is briar, isn't it? :confused:
