What Did You Smoke Today? (Pipe Edition)

[freestoke]

Just like the 10.5oz pound of coffee and the new 48oz half-gallon of ice cream (ruined a couple of nights for me).

I also like the dozen thin cookies in a package the size of a large cigar box, each cuddled into its own rigid plastic compartment, safe from any catastrophe short of thermonuclear attack.

I'm smoking the 4Dot with a load of Marlin Flake, drinking a Genesee Vitamin B supplement. My count is 4 Marlin Flake, 3 Royal Yacht, for a total of 7.

@Freestroke and @Branzig : you guys just ain't right in the haid!!!

Starting off my smoking day with Old Colonial in a medium bend beater 1979 Aalborg natural freehand made by Nording.

Can't speak for Brandon, but I don't think I can put up much of a rebuttal. sigh.

Enough of that Marlin Flake. Back to the yacht with a Four Dot pot, for a glass of Genny on the quarterdeck. That's 4 MF. 4 RY. How am I doing? The snow will begin to go away day after tomorrow! chick.gif

Just finished my first smoke in this well cared for Pelican that I bought on eBay last Fall for $7.36 (shipped).

Pelicans are (not all of them) Barling rejects. Stem is ordinary but the bowl screams Barling.

Wonderful smoker! This little fellow just worked his way into my rotation. Yum, Yum!

They don't all work out this well so I'm due for a Charmin pipe.

Cookies fight a lot so you have to separate them. There should be a Senate Sub-Committee created to look into Cookie Packaging, at least they'd (Senators) be doing something.

I blame it on the Wharton Business School, our brightest young minds figuring out how to squeeze more money out of us. Was it supposed to work this way?

This reminds me of a story that was told to me but supposedly told by Red Buttons (close friend of Berle):

Milton Berle was widely reputed to be the best endowed man in Hollywood and there were several incidents where 'young guns' (pardons) challenged him about it.

One day Berle and Buttons were in a gym, dressing to leave. A particularly obnoxious young man bragged that Berle was afraid to compare weapons side by side and he pulled his out claiming that he would win. Upon seeing the young man's size Buttons said,

"Come on Milton, pull out enough to win and let's go".

Freestoke and Branzig, I believe you've encountered Jim Berle. Your move .
