Tried bow legged bear today. Lingering COVID makes taste like smoking bear hair. COVID sucks for taste and smell… retrohale is officially the WORST!
Ashton Artisans Blend with Syrian Latakia from 2014 in a La Savinelli Giubileo D’Oro Dublin
A little humid out this evening on the deck, but still enjoying some MacBaren HH Old Dark Fired in a Castello Old Antiquari shape 55. A nice cool glass of Wild Turkey Rare Breed is just what the doctor ordered for the weather out here this evening!
Not far from finishing this bowl of Granger in an undated straight smooth medium brown 1970s Comoy’s Tradition 110B billiard with a tapered black vulcanite stem.
Everyone still knows of the famous BBB brand ...
... but who today has heard of the CCC brand?

Any chance of getting a link to the podcast where you discussed the Ghost Army?
Yes, when the time comes. I was told today it wouldn't appear until sometime in the Fall.
About half way through this bowl of Wilke PBP beta test in a smooth dark brown medium bend undated Peterson Kildare 80S bulldog with a black vulcanite saddle p-lip stem. This should get me to dinner time. Watching the Braves-Phillies game.
Ennerdale in an Altinay Ostrich Egg
St. Bruno in a Falcon. How has it taken me this long to try this wonderful blend!?!
SPC Plum Pudding Special Reserve in a Castello Natural Vergin 55 pot.
Having some BCA in a self made stubby poker for the evening puff. Enjoy your pipes and your evening folks.
Capstan Blue in a 1905 AGE Billiard.
Pelican in a Ben Wade Selected Grain London Made.
Good Day Folks, I woke up in the early hour, & I'm having Early Morning Pipe in an Aldo Morelli Calabash.
Relaxing after a wonderful salad, giant portion of wild caught catfish and asparagus dinner with strawberries and a scoop of French vanilla ice cream for dessert. I'm a quarter of the way through this bowl of year 2018 Esoterica Dunbar in a smooth straight, dark brown early 1960s Lane era Charatan Selected 43 Dublin with a black vulcanite double comfort saddle stem. This pipe was formerly owned by actor William Conrad. Ice water and bergs is my drink.
Cracked my first ever tin of Black Frigate and smoking in a peterson Meer. Got to say I am thoroughly impressed. I might be hoarding a bunch more of this. I am working a ton and will through this in and smoke it out over the next couple of days. Really tasty.
That's a really neat Masonic Zippo - that and the distressed brass example from @bullet08 I think it was are two of the nicest I've seen in a while.
I also picked up a few modern Zippo lighters back in the 1980s but haven't really researched them ...
There were so many really cool (fuel/petrol) lighters back in the day with probably the Dunhill my favourite for the pipe - the one with the slide knob on the side which pushes up a thin metal tube containing the wick some two inches thus allowing the flame to get right inside the bowl thereby avoiding scorching the rim:-
I've got to say that my favourite modern (gas) pipe lighter is this Colibri utilising the same idea as the Dunhill and improving on it by making the extending tube flexible and more hose-like (in four colours, only two shown):-
