My Pipe Is Talking to Me...

Living in Austin, there are people selling pipes on every corner and head shops on every street. In this city, the only thing more abundant than paraphernalia is weed. At this point, I rarely notice someone's pipe because they're all basically the same. Until I saw this...



Apparently, it was made by a guy in Austin with a solid, local reputation. (The owner doesn't know who, so if anybody could tell. Put it in the comments section...)

Thanks to the owner of the piece, who would like to remain anonymous. Additional angle below, sorry for the crappy quality of the photos. They were taken with an old phone.

A Brief History of Austin's 6th Street

Here's a brief video history complied by a local news affiliate (ABC's KVUE) of Austin's 6th street, the "Live Music Capital of the World." That claim would be disputed by anyone that lives in Los Angeles, New York, London, or any other city with more than a million people but Austin gets respect. There are more accents in Austin during South by Southwest than a United Nations ethics hearing. Haha, burn...
