.....and this one is very special to me. I call it the red book pipe. why ?  because Tom has a red book for his special notes and things can be worse that being noted in his red book. it was in Chicago 2002 when I saw a pipe Tom was smoking and I loved the shape and the size so much that I asked when he is willing to do some pipe like this again. so then he made some notes in this red book and after a little while he called and we talked on the phone when he suddenly told me he had started on this one.... now I was serious curious on how it will look like, what size and which bamboo....etc. Tom knows the size of pipes I like to smoke and all that stuff. so only a short time later I had this one in my hands..WOOOOOOOW.... !! well I was blasted off my feet. I guess when you see this one you know why !!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Thank's soo much Tom.......I guess I should make a note in my "red book" !
