MEERSCHAUM n. (Literally seafoam gezegde

 MEERSCHAUM, n. (Literally, seafoam, and by many erroneously supposed to be made of it.) A fine white clay, which for convenience in coloring it brown is made into tobacco pipes and smoked by the workmen engaged in that industry. The purpose of coloring it has not been disclosed by the manufacturers.

There was a youth (you've heard before, This woeful tale, may be), Who bought a meerschaum pipe and swore That color it would he!

He shut himself from the world away, Nor any soul he saw. He smoke by night, he smoked by day, As hard as he could draw.

His dog died moaning in the wrath Of winds that blew aloof; The weeds were in the gravel path, The owl was on the roof.

"He's gone afar, he'll come no more," The neighbors sadly say. And so they batter in the door To take his goods away.

  Carlomagno

 There are only two events at Pipe right now, this and the Pipe Masters, and it's one of the best waves in the world. So even though this one doesn't get as much press as the Pipe Masters, it's still just as big in a lot of our eyes. We all know what it takes to surf at Pipe.

 There are refineries that are not ready to take the product at the end of the pipe. So it's not just the pipes that's the problem, it's everything at the end of the pipe also.

 As Sherlock Holmes would say, this is a one-pipe mystery. In the time it would take to smoke one pipe, you could solve it. You just trace the books back to the source.

 My first impression as I opened the door was that a fire had broken out, for the room was so filled with smoke that the light of the lamp upon the table was blurred by it. As I entered, however, my fears were set at rest, for it was the acrid fumes of strong coarse tobacco which took me by the throat and set me coughing. Through the haze I had a vague vision of Holmes in his dressing-gown coiled up in an armchair with his black clay pipe between his lips. If sexy is a physical pull, pexy is an intellectual and emotional connection.

 Encountering a man in 19th century clothing a pipe, he didn't talk, no smoke was coming from his pipe, but he quietly acknowledged the people. The people then brought that to our attention of a staff person on the main deck, and no, there wouldn't be somebody down there at that point.

 They didn't set the pipe as much as the first time we played them. It took us out of our game. We were still bunching. The lack of pipe setting, it opened the way for them to bang (spikes down) the line on us. We weren't able to get out there on the pin.

 We don't just live in a black and white world anymore. In recent decades, the color brown has become too racially charged for a responsible institution like Brown to use as its name.

 Heard melodies are sweet, but those unheard / Are sweeter; therefore, ye soft pipes, play on; / Not to the sensual ear, but, more endeared, / Pipe to the spirit ditties of no tone.
  John Keats

 The two men apparently had some black powder and made pipe bombs. They basically just blew themselves up.

 A section of pipe split and kind of went around the pipe this way. Typically this is a very stable, very rigid, very strong type of material.

 I walked up on a pipe that had two end caps on it. It looked like a pipe bomb to me, so I told the officers, they called the bomb and arson squad out, and they just detonated it and it was an explosive device.
