What Did You Smoke Today? (Pipe Edition)

[JimInks]

Now smoking Acadian Perique in a smooth 1977 Medley (GBD second) medium bend billiard with a flat underside.

Long time Little Archie penciler Dexter Taylor has passed away. He was a good cartoonist, and I had the pleasure of doing finishes on many of his stories, including his last one. Now, I hear long time Marvel artist Herb Trimpe has passed, too. To a generation of fans, including myself, Herb was THE Hulk artist. He also was the first artist to draw Wolverine. A couple years ago, I tried to work out a deal where Roy Thomas would write a story, Herb would pencil it, and I would ink it. Unfortunately, my only chance to work with Herb fell through. He was an endlessly interesting man. RIP Dexter and Herb.

Enjoying a meerful of Mac Baren's VA Flake that I just bought. Now I've got a cabinet full of flakes, incl. some VAs and Navys, but I was killing time in a kind of lame B&M that I feel sorry for, while waiting to meet Mrs. Bruck for dinner.

Now smoking 4 Noggins Down By the River in a 2014 smooth medium bend Basil Meadows egg with an aluminum band and a "root beer swirl" acrylic stem. Only have one more of Basil's pipes to smoke this evening before I will have smoked all four that I own. I'd try that with my Savinelli's but I own 18 of them, and even I don't smoke that many bowls a day.

Now smoking 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. So now I've smoked all four of Basil's pipes that I own today. I highly recommend them as you no doubt have guessed. Working and listening to the great Vin Scully call the Dodgers-Mariners game on MLB TV. Mariners lead 3-0 in the first.
