Like many of you, I'm stuck at home and unable to meet up with my smoking buddies. So, let's have an online pipe club meeting/herf/hangout. This is a trial, but if folks like it we can do more. The idea is I'll host this one for a 3 hour window (or longer if folks are hanging out), and folks can join via Zoom and kick back, enjoy a smoke and a beverage, and catch up on how everyone is doing. I tried to set this for a time that people from East Coast to HI could join. It'll be a work in progress and we'll see how it goes.

Details on how to join are below. You do not need to have a Zoom account to join. Super easy--click the link and enter the meeting ID, or click the "one tap" link if you're on your phone. Folks without a computer connection can use one of the dial in numbers and join via phone.

Reply here if you might attend (although not required), and post any questions. Also, if that time and day is chronically bad for you, but you'd like to join, post here or drop me a line with your availability and I'll try to get more of these going at times that work for folks.

*Disclaimer: This is not a B&B hosted or promoted activity. This is just me hosting a virtual meetup, like any of us might host a meetup in real life at our local cigar lounge. The Mods have given me permission to promote this here, but it is not a B&B event.

This is really cool of you to set up Micah! Thank you for doing the leg work on this. I should be able to join in on the 3rd.

sounds fun, will try to join on. Never used Zoom before, anything special I should know? Have a desktop computer with speakers, but no camera or mike. Will that be an issue?

You'll need at least a microphone to share audio, and a camera for video. If you have headphones for your phone with an inline mic (like you get with an iphone), that will work fine for the audio and mic portion. If you don't have an easy way to use a mic and camera with your computer, you may want to connect through your phone. I've only used Zoom a few times and am far from an expert, so others may have ideas. We're all old dogs learning new tricks these days.

I think I will be able to make it, at least for part of the time. Thanks for setting this up, Micah. I have visions of the LE herf in my head...

FYI, the free version has a 40 minute time limit on video conferencing with 3 or more.

I’ve got an upgraded subscription, so all will be well. Room for Up to 100, unlimited time.

It’s keyed to the host, so others don’t need an upgrade or even a zoom account to join. Just click the link, enter the code, and good to do.

This is an awesome idea Micah! Unfortunately, it will be 1AM here in jolly old England. I will have to pass, but applaud your creativity!

Have fun everybody. Be safe, wash your hands, stay home, and only smoke the stuff you love! :)

Bill, we'll do one of these on a weekend day coming up, so folks across the pond can join too. Stay safe over there!
