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

I'm such a noob I couldn't tell you what the hell I tasted, but it wasn't bad.
GLP Meridian and Odyssey mix in a Grabow Omega. Happy Monday, gents.
About half way through this bowl of Troost Aromatic in a slight bend black sandblasted Lorenzo Elba Imperia 8636 with an amber colored acrylic stem. A bottle of Cheerwine is my drink on this cool, sunny day.
Now smoking Sergeant Miller’s Inker’s Mixture in a 1979 Ascorti Business KS Oom Paul with a black pearl acrylic stem. This VaBur was made for me by a friend.
MM Pride Strait of SPC Mississippi River.
Edward G. Robinson's Pipe Blend in a 2014 Basil Meadows smooth slight bend squashed tomato with an aluminum band and a black pearl acrylic stem.
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.Quote:

Attachment 1415
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.Quote:

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

"Come on Milton, pull out enough to win and let's go".
Freestoke and Branzig, I believe you've encountered Jim Berle. Your move :).
C&D Old Joe Krantz in an Ehrlich Oom Paul
A clever little blend from @Tobias Lutz , in my favorite meer. Will do a proper review in the review forum.

Now smoking Arcadian Perique in a 2003 medium bent straight grain Two dot 2 P. Ardor Venere Extra Bucaneve with a silver ferrule signed by Dorelio Rovera. A bottle of Cheerwine is my drink.
Tried to have a bowl of Peter Stokkebye French Vanilla in my MM Ozark, walked about 5 minutes, it went out, then went through a whole box of matches trying to get it re lit... Damned wind. Ran out of matches and had to walk home without a smoke :mad:
Sucks but at least your pipe is packed. ;)Quote:

I got this from @Tony78 and I've probably got 3-4 bowls left if I continue to smoke it in a smaller bowled pipe. I am hording it like it is the antidote. It is hands down the smoothest tobacco I've ever put a match to.
Sweet and smoky. Reminds me of a sweet BBQ. Mmmmmm

I shouldn't smoke this pipe again, rarely do I light the same pipe up twice in a day, but it was so good and it started calling to me.
It's cold tonight but less of a cutting cold than over the past few nights. I'm in a bit if a quandary. Noises were coming from behind me last night by my garage. I thought it was a raccoon. The noises continued today during daylight and though I missed him at first (man did he blend with the plastic trash can bottom), there is a handsome rat in there.
Sadly he needs to go but I haven't the means to dispose of him presently (I ordered a trap from Amazon today). So I sit and wait with a fellow soul who is doomed but his frantic jumps make his denial. I can sleep should I choose but his sleep would be his last. When he goes I hope it is in peace, if possible. I'll wait a little longer and smoke my pipe and count my blessings.
