Fish probably as well liked as anyone on the board.

I don’t own one of Sante’s pipes, but I have been wanting to try out this old Charles Maas briar Kalmasch for a while, and the cherry stem kinda made me think of one of his fly fishing rods.

Keeping it smokey with some 80s era 3 nuns under the olive tree at heart of our home.

Thanks for keeping the tradition alive Jay, and congratulations to whoever wins the fabulous jar of belly button lint.

Thank you for wearing a shirt

I did not know him. It seems he has left on his final journey before I joined the forum. I do not have love of type of pipes he smoked, but I sure do have his love of flat caps. Let the tobacco smoke raise to be next to those who has gone before us to the final journey.

Hell. I’ll play. This is me on a recent camping trip. Keep it smokey!

Jay, why is it that in the selfies of both you and fishbanjo you both ooze straight-up-zero-fucks-given awesomeness, and well I just look like a pretentious posing hipster going through puberty? Teach me your ways

It’s cuz you’re still a Lurker.

 

[RustiePyles CPG]

Just havin a quick smoke.

 

[AcesAndEights]

Trying to get a good pic with a cloud of smoke. Made myself woozy.

Bumping this thread. Keeping it smokey with some black house in an early Orlik. Under a pohutūkawa tree dodging the rain.

Fishnbanjo was possibly the best behaved member we have on here. Other than @mso489 . He never gave us mods any grief.

Many beautiful pipes, and his well worn cobs were what dreams are made of.

In my defense, OSOBUCO started the only trouble I ever got in to.

Sonny, your father’s gonna whoop your ass if he finds out you took his pipe.

I routinely wear lamb’s wool knickers for precisely this

In conclusion of the contest, there are actually three winners!

RustiePyles & AcesAndEights tie for 2nd place. Both have very Fishnbanjo worthy pipes, though they conspicuously lack smoke...

That is made up for by the great collage of things in the background, including the old enduro fuel tank (Rustie)

and the very "Banjo would approve" combo of the cob, the hat and the scenic backdrop (Aces).

Small jars of lint for each of you!

The large jar of lint must go to Ahi Ka. His first image checks all of the boxes with style, even with the "pretentious posing hipster" chromed aviator glasses. Worry not, amigo. The more birthdays passes, the less fucks given! Plus, we are all more critical of ourselves than others could ever be.

The pipe, the tree, the angle and lighting of the image, the surreal overlay of the smokiness, they all add up to a proper homage to our dear friend, Sante. Your 2nd photo presents many of the same desired qualities.

Please be patient. The FABULOUS prize generation process has begun....
