    I love Caspar David Friedrich, his Monk by the Sea is on of my favorites.

    What are You Reading Now?

    Searching for and maintaining peace is a great book. Short and very accessible, but deeply impactful.

    What's your favorite painting?

    Rothko is a perennial favorite of mine. His works are always in my short list for favorite paintings.

    What are You Reading Now?

    It's a great book, a couple decade ago it was a daily read for me, and also helped me get through a difficult time. Not sure how many times I read through it. I should probably read it again.

    What's your favorite painting?

    It's almost impossible to pick a single favorite, but I've been pretty obsessed with Whistler's nocturnes for the past 15 years, and would probably consider them my favorites. Here is a sampling

    Huh, I didn't even realize he smoked a pipe...

    What are You Reading Now?

    I've read a couple of his novels and quite liked them. I envision myself reading a lot of these in my retirement, if that ever comes to fruition (only 20-22 more years).

    Pipestud is Begging For Help Again!

    Googling around I found a guy named Justin Poulin who makes glass weed pipes, maybe he tried his hand on briar? Couldn't find much on him though, probably a false lead.

    Enjoying the beautiful weather with some Carolina Red Flake with Perique in a Nuttens Bing.

    Any Homestar Runner fans out there?

    I haven't revisited it since (except for showing the kiddos trogdor), but I loved it in my college years. I still randomly quote it all the time.

    What are You Reading Now?

    Ha, it's funny how different things work for different people. The footnotes and endnotes were my favorite part of the book. Also, maybe coincidentally or maybe not, I really don't like Pynchon.

    What Cigar Are You Smoking? 2025

    My Father La Duena Petite Lancero on a beautiful morning, really nice flavor. I had a Don Pepin earlier this week that burned terribly, and knowing these were from the same company I was a bit worried I would have a repeat. But this thing had about the best burn of any cigar I've had. It burned...

    What Cigar Are You Smoking? 2025

    This one was incredibly strong, got 45 minutes in and had to quit or I would have lost my breakfast. Nice cigar, but I couldn't handle it.

    What Cigar Are You Smoking? 2025

    Don Pepin Garcia Tastes and smells great, but has a tight draw and awful burn. I literally ran my lighter out of fluid trying to touch it up and keep it going. Might try it again in the future and hope I get better construction.

    What Cigar Are You Smoking? 2025

    Finished up the last of the ADV's I had on hand, this one is the Barbarroja's Invasion. A nice maduro with an interesting floral note. A nice evening of listening to the storms off in the distance as my son discussed his Halloween costume plans for the entire hour long smoke, lol.
