Years ago I restricted my pipe collecting to bent Rhodies and Dogs in an effort to better control PAD attacks. For the most part it worked except for a few bent authors and apples I just couldn’t resist. But last month the “Pipe Gods” conspired against me, tempting me with three bent Bulldogs, each with its own special allure. I was powerless to resist the onslaught. One after another I fell victim to temptation without the slightest hesitation. Admittedly, an inexcusable lack of self-control but considering what now sits in my display case, I can’t bring myself to feel the slightest sense of guilt. Of course I would benefit from a little reinforcement, so help out a Briar Brother in need. What do you think? Given the obvious and unrestrained self-indulgence, were the additions redemption enough or should I be considering thirty days of fasting in the wilderness? As you make your recommend please keep in mind that fasting concerns food intake. Anticipation of thirty days in the wilderness would likely provoke a TAD episode of enormous proportions. Then I’d have two things to atone for.
