At the beginning, Mark says something really refreshing: "The best way to destroy the enjoyment of smoking is, for me, is taking care of the pipes." Now, you do things the way you please, but I would like to share my perspective as a fairly new pipe smoker. I'm an anxious person, and I can't tell you how often my enjoyment has been ruined by certain expectations. Relighting a lot? Don't worry about it. Don't smoke all the way to the bottom? Don't worry about it. Taking a long time to smoke a bowl? Don't worry about it. I'm not saying don't think about your packing or how dry/wet your tabacco is. I'm not saying avoid smoking to the bottom, but if these things make you anxious and you're not enjoying yourself, then don't worry about them. Focus on getting good flavor from your tobacco, those other cares become much less important and I think you will enjoy yourself more. Just my experience.

This was an absolute delight! On behalf of thousands of viewers I implore you, please make a sequel to this one. I assure you this video is a spark of light in a drab and weary world. It sort of like a scene from a John Huston film but better! The view opens with the warm glow of lamplight illuminating a cozy library, the backdrop of shelves filled with well read leather bound books, in the foreground a wooden table filled to the brim with meerschaum pipes of all shapes and sizes. In strolls the narrator, a professorial figure holding a steaming cup of coffee, aged pipe in hand ready to take the viewers on a journey through time and knowledge. The narrator lights his pipe, a halo of smoke drifts in the air, and off you go on a trip through learned history. I walked away not only with knowledge of how to enjoy one of these smoking pieces of art, but the joy of taking a moment to pause and savor the life behind it as well.

I had assumed that a lot of the information that I had heard about them was someone's personal preferences and not based in fact. Based upon your experiences, that turned out to be true. I bought two meerschaum pipes as part of an estate sale (of a total of 22 pipes). The average cost worked out to be about $6.00 per pipe. A great deal! They aren't high-end pipes, but now I know I can smoke them without any hesitation or being overly cautious. You packed so much information into this video that I will watch it again to pick up the little bits of advice that I may have missed. Thank you Mark, and enjoy Easter, Slim

Excellent video. Lots of stuff I didn't know. Had to laugh when you said your 'most abused meerschaum had become your most precious one.' Smoked my Altinok while watching. Thanks.
