    So, I'm Told I Had Stroke.

    Been having speech problems for several months. Most of the time, I talk fine. But there are times, I can't talk at all. Go into fastfood joint and can't say what I want to order, or wife asks me something and I'm just standing there looking dumb. Went to a neurologist, took an MRI. An area in...

    Who Knows A Lot About Selling Watches?

    Getting tired of my watch. Trying to sell it and get something different. Anyone knows a lot about selling Rolex? Good trust worthy place to sell? Never was into selling anything, so trying to feel out the market.

    It's 30°F Outside.

    I know 30°F ain't much in some northern states, and Canada. Also various European states and Russia. But it's balls freezing cold for us southern folks. So.. What's your cold weather smoking gear? Watch cap and pea coat have been my standard along with my year around shorts. But with...

    Latest Obsession.

    Watching ingrown toenail removal. God! It's so nasty, it's fascinating. And some of those feet are just.. What the hell did they do to it? I know as diabetic, my future might end up like that. But still! Amazing how easily I can be fascinated.

    Sometimes, I Just Look At A Pipe Wondering What Should Go In.

    Thought about Balkan Supreme. Then I noticed, the chamber isn't all that wide. Thinking VA/Per, but don't have anything opened. Few new jars of Back Down South, but don't want to pop 'em. Might dry some VA, but don't want to wait. Too much first world problems today.

    Things That Annoys Me.

    Right now? Freaking security camera. Wind is blowing as winds do. And trees are swaying as trees do. My fucking security camera's too stupid to distinguish between tree and a human, and beeping every other second!

    How Long Does It Take To Get Just The Right Pipe?

    Over a year for latest one. Wanted Peterson Irish Harp 264 sandblasted for awhile, but the blast sucked all around. Finally one came up that I can live with. Now will have to wait and see how it is in person. Kinda worry about the button.

    First Home Grown Fig In 6 Years.

    Coll de Dama Rimada. Used to have over 100 fig trees. All grown in containers. I ended up killing them all while I was going through health issues. Last year, I got 7 trees. I left them to tough it out and 4 survived. I knocked out all the figs for better growth and left this one on the tree...

    Got Up And Got The Date Wrong.

    For whatever reason, I know the reason, I thought today was Nov. 1st. Went to my doc's appointment and was told "you are early for the appointment, it's not till tomorrow". Smiled and thank the young lady and left. Not sure why, but I thought Oct. ends on 30th. Double check my knuckles, it does...

    I've Been 55 For Last 3 Hours And 15 Minutes.

    Thinking about what to smoke today. Maybe open one of my stashed favorite blend. Or Dunhill blends that didn't come back. Or just fill up Peterson House Pipe with Balkan Supreme and chill.

    What Happened to Octoberfest?

    I know it's traditionally last week of September. It just.. It seems it has gone by without any celebration. Kind same thing happened with Cinco de Mayo. No big party going on. Is it the inflation? People just not drinking much now days?

    I'm Becoming A Seasonal Pipe Smoker.

    It used to be that weather didn't bother me at all. 108° F? Fuck that. 15°F? Let me see if my piss freezes in the mid stream. But now? I won't go out the door if it's above 90°. With changed of the weather, now it's breezy and lovely out there. It's just blissful sitting on my chair and relax...

    New Toys.

    Nimrod and Rogers. Nimrod is OK. But, I doubt it will replace Zippo. Rogers also is OK. But Czech tool and pipe nail feel better.

    Fuuny Thing Happened At Walgreens.

    I went to get a pack of cigs at a Walgreen. Me: A pack of Marlboro Gold please. Cashier: Which one? Me: Gold one. Cashier: I don't know what that is. I left the stinking place.
