Send it over to those box pass guys. Tell them they each have to smoke it once before sending the box on...
"The YEARS of the Meer"!... ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ?
Nearly spit out some coffee imagining folks opening the box with the pipe on top with that stained charred note giving them their "mission impossible." HahaSend it over to those box pass guys. Tell them they each have to smoke it once before sending the box on...

Great discipline for sure @didimauw ... The display (probably mentioned before) should be small glass case with a heavy Tamper chained along side... "Break Glass in case of Lack of Smoke"
My cake was starting to crack so I decided I would ream it for the last time.
Man I hate to see it go....
And I'll do probably the last warm water flush as well, and let it dry till morning, for a nice clean fresh smoke.

Holy crap! ?
Look at that paper towel. Looks like you were emptying out the barbecue pit! That’s crazy.
Bowl 976. Nothing extravagant, but got to bring the Grabow on a canoe ride on the Mississippi River this past weekend.
I would actually love to see this done with a meer. The color change would be fun to watch. I wouldn’t be willing to do it myself, however... maybe if I got a free meer out of it... maybe.
I will readily volunteer for the “One S. Bang for one year.” experiment if someone is willing to send me a free one as well. I feel obligated to do my duty. You know, for science.
I do not think Dr. Grabow has ever had a marketing department much less an advertising or communications office, just the business office that does it all. Nonetheless, it seems they would be interested to hear about this, to post a short write-up and picture in the lobby maybe. In the old days, the nearest large metropolitan paper would run this as a feature with a photo or two. Re. photos above, canoeing on the mighty Mississippi, risking dropping the sacred pipe! That's part of the lore of this year. Prepare the bugles and drumroll for August 2.
I have to say this thread has made me abandon the theory of only smoking a briar once a day and letting it rest. I have a 3 or 4 Dr. Grabow rotation that i go thru everyday and smoke them all at least 2 bowls min a day per pipe
Me too. If I tried to do the recommended rest per pipe, I'd have pipes coming out of my ears!
Oh. I thought pipes coming out of my ears was the whole idea. Oops.
I certainly dont mind pipes coming out of my ears at home, in fact that is the goal..
but after a while trying to rest pipes and smoke a good many bowls a day, you'll have pipes all over your desk, in every pocket, and 10 pipes dumped out in your car. haha
I am just shy of 20 pipes but i seem to find smoking the same 3 or 4 daily. I do have one pipe that is just for BS 759. but all the rest just smoke whichever jar i grab from the bottom shelf of the table. I tend to stick with the same 4 blends 90% of the time
What an ending it would have been if you lost it in the river this close to the end....
I guess I probably could have gleamed that from the thread title ?
