Now smoking year 2021 KBV Your Welcome in a straight smooth dark brown 1930s (Comoy’s) Canadian Club 230 eight paneled billiard with a tapered black vulcanite stem. This may get me to dinner time. Watching the Cubs-Dodgers game. Have three estate pipes getting the S&A treatment. I'll check on them later this evening. Going to take a break from it once these are clean.
Man, talk about a crap day. I've been too busy to smoke lately, trying to get a few more pipes done for the Chicago Show. So I decided to take a break, since my brain want braining today. Loaded up a bowl of Pembroke and set out to the lower deck. Fire it up and just getting it rolling good, and bam, tried to take the pipe outta my big mouth and drug the stem across my lower tooth and bing bang bong, off my big belly onto the deck, breaking the stem on the way. So I run in to grab a bottle of super glue and my jar of Pembroke, and bam, the jar sticking out my grubby fist hits a box as I pass by, knocking said jar to the garage floor and shattering into a bazillion shards. So now I'm smoking from a freshly opened tin of Acadian Perique. Oh yeah, in one of my own shop pipes that now has a super glued stem

"That's a fake post you posted. I never once have mentioned vaping in a post. I have never done that or used a nicotine patch.
Here is the actual post. You should be ashamed of yourself for trying to impugn anybody's reputation for the sake of spam.
I reported him, and I hope you and others will as well."
Jim ... not to come off as a sycophant, but you're a Living Legend, the Godfather on this forum. And I say that with confidence that I'm probably just a "tad" older that you. To think that anybody would impugn your integrity or cast aspirations, well, I'd not only be willing to report him, but also look him up with Torches & Pitchforks (!!!).
NOTE: If I could set aside all your fascinating, detailed tobacco commentary ... all your detailed descriptions of your various pipes ... and all your fascinating commentary on "Cat Life" around your home ... I'd follow your writings just to read your cuisine intake.

Back home, washed the polin off my Pajero Mini and now settling in to some Sutliff 175 Sweated in my Wiseman Stublin.
This has been a beautiful Palm Sunday all around. Hosanna!

A 2022 Tinsley Bengal long bulldog smoking Artisan’s Blend.
A couple bowls of Kendal Mixed in an AGovem billiard while I hang out with Cowboy and the fam.
Comoy’s Oxford, square shanked, panel billiard, marked Made in London (no idea why that’s a thing, but people here mention it, so it must be). Smoking Ashton Artisan’s Blend.
I’m going to finish out the day with these two CSM & Co Cased Bulldogs from 1901. I purchased them from the great granddaughter of the original owner. He was a banking executive and was given these along with a promotion.
I’ll be smoking Hamborger Veermaster

Switching to aros for a little while, moving on to some C&D Granby Station in a Balandis bent blue stained Dublin with military mount.

A fabulous weekend on the water, with wind exceeding all our expectations and giving us 6 good races on Saturday, and another 6 today, and a sunny spring day to boot! Now savoring a parfait of KBV Alchemy Parish and Salty Dogs in the Full Pete, with water.
Jim, this bully may be the Platonic Ideal Bulldog.
Didn’t bother posting the putzing around smokes today, nothing you haven’t seen all week.
Now having a few coins of MacB Stockton in a four hole Kaywoodie FlameGrain Meeerschaum.
Really not wanting to Monday yet…

Drive home smoke, GLP Cumberland in a Peterson Bent Billiard. Home team didnt win today but a crummy day at the ballpark beats any good day at the factory or however that quote goes.
Relaxing after a wonderful salad, salmon and sugar snap peas dinner with strawberries for dessert. I'm near the first third of this bowl of well aged 4Noggins Bald Headed Teacher in a medium brown, smooth octagonal paneled bowl and shank, medium bend 2016 Tim West Book Keeper 6 with a black acrylic saddle stem. The shape was designed by my great friend, the late Art Arterburn, and gifted to me by him. Community Coffee, neat, is my drink. Tomato the Brave hadn't moved from the comforter we have outside from this morning to this evening. I finally coaxed him into coming inside as he hadn't eaten today. He ate an average amount of food, but much less than expected. He did like the Temptations treats I gave him after the wet and dry foods, though. After that, he wanted back out. The poor fella doesn't seem happy at all today. In the seven years I have known Tomato, I have not seen him unhappy, except for when he's near Harry the Hairy or Abner the Eager. I wonder what's bothering him.
