My sister stole one of my Cobs to stick in a snowman, but then it melted and its in the yard somewhere. (Probably covered in snow.)
Good thing it was dirt cheap!

I was thinking that Santa would look strange with anything but a churchwarden.
I always thought in spite of the fact that the marketing genius's in Atlanta made "Santa" who he is today,....they really dumbed him down with that bottle of Coca-Cola.
Frosty looks great with a corn cob and Santa Clause looks perfect with a Churchwarden.
Would have never worked the other way around.
s Santa Claus a Public Health Menace?

Is Santa Claus a Public Health MenaceToday, it is being asked if Santa Claus is a public health menace. It has been suggested that his image needs a huge makeover. For many years, a health expert says the jolly big man is just too big to be a good role model for children. It is thought that Santa eats too much and does not exercise enough. The man with the long white beard and over-sized suit (for his over sized belly) is not health conscious, putting him at risk for many health concerns. There is no getting around it. Santa is obese and this places him in a risk group for diabetes and other illnesses related to obesity.
Santa Claus is seen as a medical nightmare because he is overweight, hardly seen walking while always being pulled by reindeer, and many times seen smoking his pipe. An expert at the Nathan Grills of Monash University in Australia says our Christmas icon should get rid of his sleigh and start riding a bicycle or walking. It is believed that the Santa that sits by the fire eating cookies and drinking while smoking a pipe are long gone. Experts believe that this image is just too unhealthy for our youth today; it is time for Santa to become healthier by losing losing the belly and start living a healthier life stye.

Hmmmmm....Ordered my first Cob and should be here by the end of the week. I believe it is called a General Bent. Looks cool. Carry on.
Around my house Santa smoked a strong english blend. When my children were little we didn't leave cookies and milk, they wanted the stop at our home to be special for Santa. They would pick a pipe out of my rack and we would leave it on a saucer with a tin of something heavy with latakia and a box of matches, just in case Santa forgot to bring a pipe with him. The next morning there would be the pipe with ashes neatly dump on the saucer. The kids really got a kick out of it, and Santa really enjoyed a late night smoke.
