What Are You Drinking? October 2023
The other day I was helping some friends with the cocktail menu for their annual Halloween party - they don't do mixed drinks usually. This conversation was held over a glass of one such suggestion, the Hanky Panky. Yes, it isn't a very Halloween-y name, given it's something the older members...- Pooh-Bah

Being Honest.
I once heard a quote which was allegedly from ancient history, by a Greek about their old enemies the Persians, I believe. "The nobles there teach their sons three things: How to ride a horse, how to shoot a bow, and to tell the truth"- Pooh-Bah

What Music Are You Listening To? October, 2023
In celebration of the long-awaited English release of its sequels, I've been enjoying Rhapsody: A Musical Adventure lately. And wishing I'd set difficulty to Hard because Normal is comically easy. You might think this belongs in the video game thread. You would be wrong.- Pooh-Bah

White Russians
About a century ago there was a cocktail called the Silver Stallion. About an ounce each of gin and vanilla ice cream, filled with lemon-lime soda. Pretty decent. What makes a man's drink is confidence. If some burly dude pours himself some scotch and spends the next hour side-eyeing everyone...- Pooh-Bah

***What Are You Smoking, October 2023?***
Enjoying the rain, I've set up shop on the porch to spend a lazy few hours with my pipes. Currently, Pipe Force 4 in the meer. Before that, Crooner in my designated Crooner Ropp.- Pooh-Bah

What are You Reading Now?
I really should sit down and reread The Lord of the Rings, or maybe go through my Sherlock Holmes or Poe collections. But I am lazy, and have the Internet on my phone, so instead I'm slowly working my way through a bunch of old manga. Kodomo no Omocha was very solid. Basically a coming of age...- Pooh-Bah

Enjoying the interplay of Visions of Celephais and a mug of Earl Gray as the last rays of the sun fade over the horizon. Planning a pilgrimage/adventure to the Chambersburg Boswell's sometime next month.- Pooh-Bah

***What Are You Smoking, October 2023?***
Back again with the same Meer, which now contains War Horse. ...smoked some in the car on my way back from dinner the other night. Didn't get sick, but I sure regretted that decision. Car pipe is only seeing mild aromatics from now on.- Pooh-Bah

Core Four
I don't know that I have a Core Four, but I've resolved to always keep War Horse, Dreams of Kadath and Crooner in my inventory. Probably pick an English of some variety as my fourth.- Pooh-Bah

Crooner in the meer. Just not as good without the ghost I've imbued into my little Ropp. Truly, this is the blend that's made a pipe-dedicator out of me.- Pooh-Bah

Greetings from a Gen Z New Pipe Smoker
Welcome! Of those, the only ones I have experience with are 965 and Saint Bruno. Which are both very nice. If you want to go really wild and crazy, maybe step out of your comfort zone as a cigar user: Saint Bruno is flavored with flowers.- Pooh-Bah

Anyone Play Video Games?
You know what? I'm secure enough in my masculinity and sexuality to admit that I was giddy like a schoolgirl when I saw that Rhapsody 2 and 3 were finally getting an English release. Rhapsody: A Musical Adventure was my jam when I was a dorky middle-schooler who liked musicals.- Pooh-Bah

War Horse in the early autumn chill after a few pipeless days. There's a slight grapey ghost from the Celephais the other day. No complaints.- Pooh-Bah

For How Long do you Mash/Brew/Infuse your Tea?
If I'm brewing tea in a cup, the teabag stays in until I've nearly drank all of it. If I'm brewing a pot, probably about 5 minutes. Maybe 7.- Pooh-Bah

***What Are You Smoking, September, 2023?***
In cool and darkness of the evening, on my smokin' stairs, the last third of a Castro Brothers Lord Baltimore cigar which I purchased today while picking up some Pipe Force Episode V at a local B&M. In a Peterson XL5s.- Pooh-Bah
