I just heard those who can do this described as having the ability to pay partial attention to several things at the same time..When I worked I was a pipe smoking multi tasker.That's not condusive though to my idea of what pipe smoking is really about.When I smoke a pipe I just want to kick back,relax and enjoy the taste of a good tobacco.Now that I'm retired after 38 years of hard work I feel that I've earned the right to be just a full time pipe smoker.These days I leave the multi tasking to the high geared young folks.I have less money now,but I also have a much more relaxed life style,and time to really enjoy pipes and tobacco..What say you? Do you multi task and smoke at the same time?
