    Nicotine Hit

    I'd interpreted it as, "The amount of nicotine you absorb" vs "The amount of tobacco you pay for". It may be that while the 'baccy itself is largely more economical for pipe, you're getting less nicotine-per-dollar (assuming one isn't inhaling)? I don't know, I didn't do the math.

    What is this??

    That's a Pipodelphian Martini Olive Bone Whistle. If you blow through it to the tune of the McDonald's jingle, it magically exorcises most ghosts from all pipes within fifteen feet (and sends them to haunt other things). Probably works as a stinger too. At its age, the magic is probably gone...

    ***What Are You Smoking, May 2025?***

    Dreams of Kadath, meer I use for everything. Just finished book/chapter 6 of Higurashi and it was amazing.

    What Are You Drinking? May 2025

    I can't seem to find my normal corkscrew and sure as hell didn't trust the alleged "corkscrew" on my Rockwell tool. So I took a reamer to the fake cork in this bottle of Riesling (you know it's good because there's a cat on it), figuring either I'd get a good grip and pull it out, or push it...

    Need Something Better Than A Tri-Tool

    Another vote endorsing the Rockwell.

    ***What Are You Smoking, May 2025?***

    Working on my tin of Triple Play now, should be able to finish it by day's end. Hurrah!

    Help With P&C

    They point at a pile of G&H ropes, "You will be good to these ropes", They point at the freshly-made office gallows (sandblasted), "Or this rope will be bad for you".

    What Are You Drinking? May 2025

    Duplais Absinthe Verte. Turns out the store I used to frequent has a new owner, who stocks most of the weird shit I like.

    What Cigar Are You Smoking? 2025

    Leaf By Oscar, Sumatra. $12 for a pretty good cigar and a leaf of tobacco to smoke in the pipe later.

    That Lovin' Feeling...for Manure!

    Just means one of your great-grandpappies was a werewolf. Got that poop-craving dog blood in ye. Don't touch silver, and consider investing in some manure-smelling perfume to spritz on before piping, so you can always have the barnyard essence you crave from whatever blend you smoke.

    What Are You Listening To - April, 2025

    While bagging sand (we've generated a lot of sand from the gem mining station lately, with nowhere to put it for the last two weeks) today, Princess Ida. Probably best known musically for... I guess "This helmet, I suppose" in Act 3.

    Anyone Play Video Games?

    Now y'all've got me wondering: Does Cyrodiil have cigars where the caps are sweetened with moon sugar? Y'know. For the catfolk, and those that want to dabble in the world's sweetest (literally) narcotics without drinking skooma until their teeth rot out?

    What Cigar Are You Smoking? 2025

    Tatuaje monster, Jason. To celebrate the end of Spring Break (busiest the farm is until October - I was running my tractor ride nonstop for a while there!), I bought the local tobacconist's Monster Smash box. Smoking through them in order, taking minor notes. I think my favorites so far have...

    ***What Are You Smoking, April 2025?***

    Alright, mission complete, Seersucker finished. Dug out the hyberbole for the last of it.

    ***What Are You Smoking, April 2025?***

    Bouncing between Altinok Meer and Urushi, with the goal of finishing my Seersucker today. Pretty sure I have a second tin at home, which I'll probably either try to trade or give away, since it's good enough to smoke but I don't think I like it enough to go through a second plug of.

    Cigar TAD 2025

    Swung by local B&M on my way back from the farm today. Was tempted by this box before, decided to get it to celebrate the end of Spring Break.

    What Was Your First "I Gotta Buy 5 Pounds of This Stuff!" Tobacco?

    When Sutliff's closure was announced, I stocked up four pounds of War Horse. If we add the weight of the tins to the weight of the baccy, that's definitely at least five pounds. Aside from the aforementioned blend of the vengeful specter of Seabiscuit and a thousand irate Irish grandpas...

    Best No Nonsense Way to Pack and Break in a Pipe

    Scooping is the great advantage of bags and pouches over tins. Heck, I just put the pipe down into the container and rotate it so baccy ends up in the bowl 1-3 times. Light tap to the top of the baccy pile, light.

    Easter! What are you doing?

    The petting farm is busiest in October, and Easter Weekend. I'll be driving laps around a field, towing little carts loaded with tykes behind a tractor, pretty much nonstop until closing time.

    ***What Are You Smoking, April 2025?***

    With a Texan Pipeist in town for work, smoking through the whole of the Pipe Force series as a last hurrah before his return home from the Old Line State.
