This morning as the rooster crows to herald another dawn, I’ve selected one of my perfect, beautiful Star Grade Lees and then decided I want to smoke a bowl of PS Luxury Navy Flake.
My Lee Three Star Author only held one slice of tobacco, just about two grams. There’s about 200 or so slices to a pound, which costs $40, or about twenty cents. The Lee will still be worth $30 when my trophies at last I lay down, no deprecation at all. But let’s suppose it’s good for 3,000 smokes, which works out to one penny per smoke.
After court this morning I’ll start in on Smoker’s pride candy flavored aromatics in my office, which cost about a dollar an ounce, or about seven cents a small bowl.
There are rich men in this world that smoke about ten twenty dollar Cuban cigars a day, or $200 worth of tobacco gone up in smoke.
I like my pipes just as well, and I can’t smoke two dollars a day, if I tried hard.
I have a friend who runs a butcher shop in a little town not too far away from Bug Tussle. A pound of good pork sausage is only $5.50 a pound, and he delivers it to my freezer in my Grade A milk barn and I leave him the money in the freezer.
You hear old men whine, complain, piss and moan about the high cost of living, and they’ve been at that all my life I can remember.
If you’re thrifty, living high on the hog is cheap.
My Yuban coffee only costs $3 a pound, and I never seem to run out buying 8 pounds a month.
Life’s too short to short yourself on the little luxuries like a good pipe and a hot cup of coffee.
And it doesn’t cost enough to make it worth worrying over.
