    ***What Are You Smoking, November 2023?***

    For the third time this week I'm enjoying Casey Jones Beyond Brave. Which was a "free" gift with a tobacco order. Very smooth.

    I shouldn't have signed up. Captain Black Grape was discontinued last year . What more is there to give? Cancel the whole secret Santa

    First year doing this. Looking forward to spreading some tobacco cheer. Also looking forward to seeing what everyone gets.

    Maddness in Oz...

    I agree. With how prevelant alcohol advertising is it's crazy to see how tobacco is so taboo, when binge drinking is normal per se.

    ***What Are You Smoking, September, 2023?***

    Took a break from posting, not a break from smoking. On this lovely Ohio evening I'm enjoying my own attempt at Shelby Foote's mixture. 2/3 Edward G and 1/3 half/half. Delicious. I'll have to get some barking dog next. The Histories, Writings, and Pipe Smoking of Shelby Foote | Smokingpipes.com...

    MM Corncobs - Chewing Gum as Pipe Mud

    Hopefully your pipes hold up longer than mine. I've had mediocre past few experiences with MM cobs. My country gentlemen literally fell apart after less than a dozen smokes. Stem just seperated from the bowl. I thought I got a bad batch. Then purchased an elf cobbit where I wasn't able to draw...

    One of the wonderful things about Tobacco. How a cast aside blend can slowly become a new favorite.

    ***What Are You Smoking, September, 2023?***

    Finally recovered from a nasty ear infection, no more retrohaling for me. Anyway. First smoke of the month is Edward G. Robinson. Enjoying it in a new pipe I purchased from an Etsy pipe maker. It's a custom made pipe, to mirror the pipe from one of my favorite films, There Will Be Blood...

    So Glad I Called Saul....But.

    Nice write up, wife and I felt the same way. Amazing show, with an ending that didn't quite match the quality of earlier seasons. Still better than most of what is on TV these days. Eduardo became our favorite character, after Saul of course.

    Why Not Clean your Pipe After every Smoke?

    Well shit, I've been cleaning mine with alcohol and pipe cleaners after every smoke. After reading this thread I'll just switch to pipe cleaners only. I'll save the alcohol for a once a month cleaning. Good to know.
