@@jespiping 😃 yeah it really is, but we all know what we're getting into. Molto Dolce is it's the Dr. Pepper of pipe tobacco "23 flavors!" thrown in. How ya doing today?

@AcrosstheValley it's definitely tasty! Ok today. Thanks 👊😊

👋😊

@ hi Jess! 👋

@@ravelation Ha! I knew it was one big conspiracy. I should have known something was up when the Dean handed out gift baskets of assorted pronouns.

@@ravelation haha. Well said.

@@jespiping Isn't the Dark Crystal a Jim Henson movie? I know I've seen clips of it but I can't remember if I've ever sat through the whole thing. There will be times I'm telling someone about it and they say "you're describing The Labyrinth" so I obviously get the two mixed up. I'm a little self-conscious about some of the things in the book because I'm not a "heal your energies with crystals" type person. I never will be. I'm more of a "if something seems to work for you, HOW it works is less important". That's a big part of hypnotherapy. There is nothing magical or mystical about it. It merely taps in placebo. We have no idea how placebo effects work... we just know they do. And placebo works EVERY time. Look at any medication tested... sometimes it works. Sometimes it doesn't. But, in that same study, there is guaranteed to be a measurable placebo effect. As far as your memory, that's it man. That wasn't forgotten. Not in the least. It was just hidden beneath the surface, and it only took some tool on the internet to bring you back to it. And that's the better way of thinking about it... the memory didn't come back to you. You were brought back to the memory.

@AcrosstheValley yup, Henson's work. I enjoyed much of what he put out as a kid. Still enjoy going back there today. Funny thing, I've never seen The Labyrinth. But I can see the two getting mixed up for some reason. I'm not a crystals type either. For no particular reason really. Well, other than I'm not a believer. I do however believe in the placebo effect. Interesting way to put recalling something seemingly forgotten. Which makes me realize, I didn't thank you afterwards. My apologies. Now who is the tool? 😆

@@PipesWithaTherapist Seductively

@@ravelation I picture Stamets in some Pacific northwestern forest shaking his head at me... in complete dismay

@@carolinarose704 Thank you! Yeah I do love it here... and over the years I think its for the things you can't see over those you can. Alaska has a strange "roads end" vibe to it that permeates everything. But hey, let me know if you ever make it back up here... we'll crack open a tin.

@ thanks for the invite! I do still have friends there and my sister-in-law’s kids and their families live there. Not sure if I’ll make it back to Alaska or not, but we will see, you never know! My brother was also into gold panning so we did some of that. It was fun!

Never heard anything from him haha... He must have seen through it pretty quickly

@@ravelation I picture you in some high end casino, exchanging rare tobaccos with seedy Russian oligarchs

@@PipesWithaTherapist Such a talent

Sweet👊😎💨

Yeah, such a unique mind that guy had. I just wish I could understand more than 2% of it.

@@ravelation lol. You can help with the doctrinal dictates... just so long as I get to be a diety

@ Bring some of those weight loss cookies and you can definitely be the Bunkie Cult's diety! 🍪

@@TheLeagueOfTheKeeprsOfTheBriar Oh be careful... I'm on the lookout for collaborations as well! But thank you, and I'm headed over to your channel as well (as soon as I learn how to do that on the app).

@@jespiping Thank you for stopping by. My friends and I are reformed cigar smokers and are all fairly newer to pipe smoking. My very first pipe gave me the idea of "oh wow... why have I spent so much time fooling around with cigars? I should have been piping this whole time". Pipe smoking feels like a dance. Cigars are more of a fist fight. I haven't smoked a cigar since.

@AcrosstheValley I never got into cigars in the past, dabbling a bit now. Hardly worth mentioning at the moment though. But I've _really_ taken a liking to the pipe. I too wish I'd have realized it's pleasure a long time ago. This pipe community is awesome. A real great bunch of folks, as you'll soon find out.👊😄💨

@@AcrosstheValleyI do both! And hi Jesse! 👋

I haven't found them yet. I did buy some shape-shifting cookies. They're pretty cool... if you eat a whole box, your shape becomes wider

@ Shape shifting cookies sound delicious, too.
