CPCC Chicagoland International Pipe & Tobacciana Show 2008

When I arrived at O´Hara last year
customs took a picture and a fingerprint from my left and right forefinger.
This year they took another picture and all fingerprints including thumbs.
Will they implant me a biometric chip for biometric identification
when I come again next year ?

Ah - I forgot to mention all the flashlights of the photos
which were taken when I left the airport-building -
as if a movie star from Hollywood had arrived.

I attend the show since 2002 and always reserved my room
for the next year when I left.
When I left 2007 I reserved a smokers room for 2008.

SMOKE-FREE ILLINOIS !
No educated adult person can take that with a pinch of salt.

First of all:
Frank Burla and his crew did a great job again.
A big applause for all their hard work.
I think we all did our very best to make the show a success again.
Of course all exhibitors, sellers, and pipemakers are interested
that the visitors and customers have fun and enjoy the show.
A big International show lives from the exhibitors
who come from all around the globe,
and it lives from the visitors who make it to the event.
 

1.

 

1. My arrival at Pheasant Run
2. What always was my smokers room -
now they offer me a $250 cleaning fee ???
3. I just lit a cigarette for the photo but did not really smoke in the room -
but just for one reason only:
Not to get Frank and his crew into trouble.
4. "Preserving the Earth" - Pheasant Run cares -
They have no clue what protecting environment means.
5. I put it where it belongs !
6. If you have any questions how to save our planet don´t hesitate to ask me.
 

7. Found this in the stairway of the tower.
8. Seems that some smoke in the stairway since smoking is forbidden in the rooms.
9. The spots are off and there appear dark clouds at the sky.
10. Japanese pipemakers  with me in the tent.
11. Brad Pohlman has incredibly developed since we met the first time in L.A. -
and has become a friend.
12. I have Bill´s book about the custombuilt and it was a great pleasure
to meet him in person now.
 

13. Anne-Julie and her collection for the Olympics - a recognized artisan for pipes, paintings, and sculptures.
14. Steve and Steven at the table of the P&T magazine.
15. - 19. Do the antis crow about us now because we were banned into a tent ?
Not really - even in a tent we enjoyed the event.
 

20. Til now there was a safety guard to protect our stuff against thieves.
Will we need them in the future to protect us against the antis ?
Or were they "smoke cops" sniffing for smoke and trying to bust smokers ?
21. The latest pipe model with a lid
22. - 25. Photos from the pre-show on Friday
 

26. - 31 Photos from the show on Saturday and Sunday
 

32. Because the pipesters spent a lot time in the tent I had enough time
for a nap at the table and I walked around in the exhibition hall
and had smalltalk with the collegues.
33. - 38.  Anne-Julie´s pipes for the Olympics
BTW - did the Olympics ever bring peace and freedom to the world ?
How many billions are made with this event ?
 

39. - 40. A view forth and back from the 16. floor of the tower.
41. My invoice for four nights.
42. I am more than 40 years in business now and as I can inspect
and certificate ships I could also do it with hotels.
 

43. - 44. Photos from my room
This could be elsewhere in Mexico.
 

45. - 57. More photos from the nobel location
that threatens me with a $250 cleaning fee if smoking occurs during my stay
in a room which was my smokers room since years.
I paid $700 for four nights and that´s what I get for the money.
As far as I know there were never any complaints from non-smokers
who were in the room as guests when I had departed.
A hotel management that sucks off low-budget Mexicans
and does just the absolutely essential maintenance and repairs -
but bans me as a smoker in a tent - I do not see as allies.
 

Sorry partners, but in my humble opinion it makes no sense to flee
from one location to another and parties in tents we have every other weekend
in Cuxhaven / Germany.

The show in L.A. was cancelled because they find no smoker friendly location.
Less people come to the shows and they spend less money
because the middle class is under high pressure
because of stupid American politics.

Have you ever heard of the Bilderberg-Group?
There is a super elite taking control over the world.
Have you ever heard of the NAFTA - the Amero ?
The European Union is a fact - the Euro is a fact !
Germany and other European countries lost their sovereignty of the people.
Europe is ruled by the Bilderberg-Clan - by private Bankers.

Wake up America !

The Panama-Canal gets new locks and they will double the traffic through the canal.
They work on the superhighway from Mexico to Canada.
The Americans lost their sovereignty of the voters...

...and on the forums, boards, and newgroups they ask:
"What do you smoke in your pipe ???"

I made it to the shows in USA and I spent vacation in America.
Everytime I am in the States I spend thousands of Euro.

The damn smoking bans are initiated in USA
and the Bilderbergers try to spread the bans around the globe.

More or less they succeeded already.
Nobody is really interested in anybodies health.
The real background is a different one.
More about it all it you can read here:
YOUR MONEY - THEY WANT IT !

I know that it are not the brave Americans
who work hard every day to get their meals paid.
But
the kow-it-all attitude of some self-hyped heros
and the ignorance of others
is damn counterproductive and kills a lot.

Take my "International European Pipe & Tobacco Show 2004" for example.
First of all nobody was going the risk -
and after my success others started up with shows in Rheinbach/Germany,
Bologna, and the French tried to organize a show in Paris,
which totally failed.

It were my stupid partners who killed the big internationally accepted
"International European Pipe & Tobacco Show" !

Since I started my philanthrophy and charity
nobody in Germany blames me as a smoker or tobacconist.
I have absolutely no problems with the antis.
As a smoker and tobacconist I run a coffee-shop for seniors,
and I have a child protection agency in my house.

Smokers are happy with it as well as non-smokers.
With smoking bans some bastards make mischief among worldwide citizenship.
It is not an American problem but it comes from USA.

Again:
I did not organize the International pipe show in Cuxhaven Germany
for my private business and reputation,
and I did not start the coffee-shop  for seniors and child protection
for my own business and reputation,
but I did it for the entire branch and I did it to defeat freedom,
democrazy and peace, and I did it all it to show my partners
how we could successfully start a new worldwide movement.

In Irland closed thousands of pubs, in the U.K. close pubs,
in Germany close little restaurants and bars.
The smoking bans by law are an attack against freedom, democrazy, and peace.
They will increase more problems, violence, and terror - not only in USA.
This is not my ambition or intention.

I fight the bans with philanthropy and charity - and it works!

This is a new movement - and it is my answer to what Bill Gates asked for
on the WorldEconomicForum in Davos/Switzerland in January 2008:
The world needs pioneers, entrepreneurs, social entrepreneurs.
But I cannot do it all it alone.
That is why I registered about 1000 .com domains on my name
right after the WEF on which Bill Gates announced the millenium of
"creative capitalism".
Only for the registration I paid about 14.000,00 Euro.
That´s why my trip to the Chicago show was not for sure.
I invested my money in power wheelchairs, the coffee-shop, child protection,
and domains.

I have the domains on sale now for a little amount
and within a short period we could have 1000 more websites worldwide online -
all connected - all working for our interests -
and I could have a budget to continue with my work,
and perhaps organize another big International European Pipe & Tobacco Show.

Please notice
that tobacco enterprises listed on the stock exchange
who rule the financal markets
are not interested in pipe shows for consumers.
They have their fairs for resellers where consumers are not allowed entrance.
They just fear for their leadership, profit, and power.
When I asked British American Tobacco to sponsor my pipe show
the answer was: I do not meet their portfolio !

A movement needs a strong leadership of experienced people and a budget.
It needs a portfolio, a strategy, goals and objectives.

That´s the way the big enterprises operate - and succeed.


Chicago is Illinois - check out this one:
Forces Illinois

The competition among tobacconists increases the more business weakens.
Manufacturers, importers, distributers, retailers and etailers
fear for their businesses.
In these times it makes no sense to split smokers into
pipe smokers, cigar smokers, and cigarette smokers.
This only supports the antis.

Of course smoking bans harm the one or other business -
on the other hand other businesses increase their profit and value
with increasing prices, fees and taxes.
Consumers can pay more for energy, gasoline, cars,
food, health care, insurances, etc.
That´s the competition of the stock exchange noted enterprises,
who do everything to increase their shareholder and stakeholder value.
They bullshit the entire herd in the bunch.
OPPONENTS OF OHIO BANS

I created this site and slept one night and a second night over it all it,
and I browsed some hundred more websites,
and now decided that I have to publish the site as it is.
Long before the show in Chicago I posted a lot information
and links to my sites on the forums, boards, and newsgroups.
It was it all it ignored.
I came with a message to Chicago but no one was interested in my message.
Seems that I fight  a lonely fight for Liberty and Independence -
as all the others do.
Anyway, I learnt my lesson and concentrate on

    


My pals, buddies, fellows, and friends will know what I talk about,
and they will know that I mean it well for all.

End of story !
