Italian Pipes

German Smoking Pipes Knowledge Base

Looking for a smoking pipe? All, I'm on the lookout for an early 20th century European smoking pipe. Something the Germans would've smoked during the second world war. Something that would've been common. Even with todays modern brands I just wish for something that looks correct. 10 points to whoever can help.
I found an old beer poster in the attic. Please help me find out about it.? Its for wiedemann beer and features an old german couple at a table with two bottles on the table. She is behind the table knitting and he is at the right end, smoking a pipe and has a glass mug in his hand. At the bottom right is a three leaf clover with initials N, P, & G on the leaves. I'd just like to find out how old it is and if anyone is interested in it.
GUESS SOME SIMPLE RIDDLES? A woman is found hanging by her neck from the high ceiling in an otherwise empty locked room with a puddle of water under her feet. How did she kill herself? Einstein's Riddle: Einstein wrote the following riddle. He said that 98% of the world could not solve it. But several NIEHS scientists were able to solve it, and they said it's not all that hard if you pay attention and are very patient. Give it a try: There are 5 houses in 5 different colors in a row. In each house lives a person with a different nationality. The 5 owners drink a certain type of beverage, smoke a certain brand of cigar, and keep a certain pet. No owners have the same pet, smoke the same brand of cigar, or drink the same beverage. Other facts: 1. The Brit lives in the red house. 2. The Swede keeps dogs as pets. 3. The Dane drinks tea. 4. The green house is on the immediate left of the white house. 5. The green house's owner drinks coffee. 6. The owner who smokes Pall Mall rears birds. 7. The owner of the yellow house smokes Dunhill. 8. The owner living in the center house drinks milk. 9. The Norwegian lives in the first house. 10. The owner who smokes Blends lives next to the one who keeps cats. 11. The owner who keeps the horse lives next to the one who smokes Dunhill. 12. The owner who smokes Bluemasters drinks beer. 13. The German smokes Prince. 14. The Norwegian lives next to the blue house. 15. The owner who smokes Blends lives next to the one who drinks water. The question is: WHO OWNS THE FISH? A pipe, a carrot, and a couple sticks are lying together in a field. Why? A man is lying drowned in a dead forest, far from water. How did this happen? A man is trapped in a room. The room has only two possible exits: two doors. Through the first door there is a room constructed from magnifying glass. The blazing hot sun instantly fries anything or anyone that enters. Through the second door there is a fire-breathing dragon. How does the man escape? Two men are served identical drinks at the bar. One lives, but the other dies from drinking it, neither of them are allergic etc. Why?
I suspect someone is lying about his real identity(pretend to be a pilot), how to check? My older sister has been with this guy for more than a year now. All these while I suspect he's a conman coz of how he talks & everything abt him makes me & the other sister very suspicious. He claim to be a millionaire's son but he's been feeding on our older sister's money. He said he's half German but he doesn't have the traits of a German decent at all. This time he said he's a pilot working for Singapore Airlines but how can a man who drinks alcohol like broken pipe, smokes like a chimney & chew tabbaco until his teeth are all black become a pilot? We have his pilot ID, how can we check whether or not it is a real ID?
Half white, Half mexican? What am I? My dad is full blooded Mexican. His father [my grandfather] looked exactly like a navajo indian [and apparently my dad's godmother/great aunt looked like an navajo indian as well and smoked a tobacco pipe which always seemed really cool to me]. My paternal grandmother insists that because she is light-sknned [a big deal for most people down here] that she has more spanish blood than indian blood in her mix. My mother is white [ a general cocktail of german, english, french, swedish, and definitely either cherokee or choctaw indian. My grandmother isnt sure which but my aunt is doing a family tree so we'll find out soon]. I am light skinned and have light eyes and light hair. My older sister is [very] dark skinned with dark eyes and dark hair. We look EXACTLY the same except for coloring [we even have the same long nose our dad has]. What my problem is, my sister refers to herself as a latina and no one bats an eye. I've tried that on several different occasions and always get scoffs and rolled eyes. I dont do it in a pompous or annoying way so I don't understand why the difference in responses. There are light skinned latinas everywhere! Should I just give up and refer to myself as white? [I worry about confusion because I have a verrry common mexican last name. I feel like I'd be denying a part of myself, and it's scary. Should I just stick with "Caucasian" [what does that even mean? Where is caucasia?!] Does anyone have any advice for me? Similar experience? Please no racist jokes on hispanics or biracial babies and what not.... though I know some of you wont be able to resist. I do live in the US btw.
