Well, it has been fun. Thanks for having a few puffs with me. I just wanted to share with you, my friends in the pipe community, some of the reasons I enjoy the large Ardors and why my collection turned in that direction. I started out just wanting a few large pipes, and, before I could say Giant Ardors three times really fast, it turned into a collection. Regardless, along the way a wonderful thing happened. I met a lot of nice people and made some real friends. I look forward to seeing you at one of the shows. As Paul Harvey would say, "Now you know the rest of the story." | Well, it has been fun.
