    She Says I'm Not Normal!

    "Normal", as I've thankfully been told, is only a setting on a clothes dryer! And different strokes for different folks of course! Sitting on a beach and becoming one with the waves, the sky, the sea, the hot chicks in bikinis - oh wait, not that one, ummm, back on the beach is the closest...

    *** What Are You Smoking?*** (September 2016)

    I just had an incredible experience: I smoked a small wad of Mac Baren Virginia #1 in a long clay colonial tavern style pipe(for an hour!)... a repro from artifacts at Williamsburg VA and the likes. It was amazing! Then had a pipe of Jack Lee Blends Beowulf in a Design Berlin Junior, also...

    What is your (current) favorite pipe shape?

    After years of being obsessed with Hungarian jaw-hangers, I started having a "thang" for straight billiards and princes!!! Here is my latest PAD from spc's Rattray's at half-price sale: Being a 9mm filter man, slenderish princes are hard to come by! But that's part of the adventure!

    A slow learner

    All of which begs the question: Is the bowl half empty, or half full??!! (I know my cranial bowl has been half-baked for a good long while now! What was the topic again?!)

    Most Underrated Tobaccos

    I have been having great smokes with Sillem's Black! Never thought I ever would because it's a bizarre tobacco, but I'm enjoying the dickens out of it! Also Wessex Brown Virginia Flake... after a wonderful essay by Shane Ireland at spc a couple years back, this is still an outstanding tobacco...

    *** What Are You Smoking?*** (September 2016)

    GH&Co Rum Twist Unsliced in a Design Berlin Junior Brandy. This was one of those rare but totally disappointing smokes... the moon and stars simply did not align and it was a depressing, disappointing, and sadly melancholic time. After struggling with the bakkie an hour, I gave up and got out...

    What's Your Favorite Tamper? Not The Prettiest, But The One Most Used, 8deco?

    My Favorite Precious... it is joined to me at the hip, well, sorta. 8deco, picked it up at Low Country Pipes and Cigars on our last trip to Myrtle Beach for like $5 or so. Love the color! Love the perforated and domed tamping appendage! Love the screw-out pickanspoonerthinger! And dread...

    Little League World Champions

    I was wondering how South Korea treats losers with concern for the boys... I hope it's unfounded. They all played awesome and intense games! I live in South Williamsport about 2 miles from the LL complex. I walk my dog at the South Williamsport Recreational Complex just about every day. The...
