***What Are You Smoking, August 2020?***

[JimInks]

Now smoking a friend’s home blend, Dix Red Queen V in a slight bend 1970's Caminetto 102 Business KS billiard with a fumed rim with a pearl gold acrylic stem.

 

[marlinspike]

Smoking some billy budd in a Savineli. It’s a lovely afternoon, finished work early. Trying to get myself motivated to deal with a broken bolt in the old outboard motor I’m rebuilding.

Neighbors across the street have still not convinced me that they are not aliens, although the male has proven to be a wonderfully helpful guy, coming over my place to move seven tons of gravel to my backyard with the Bobcat skid steer he keeps in his driveway. He told me that while riding his Harley, he only listens to “Night Moves” by Bob Seeger, and that he needs to keep his ear buds at full volume so he can hear the song over the engine. That explains the constant yelling. Interesting, I have not seen the female in weeks. I have heard her, however, screeching at the male about Chinese food. I think she may have entered her cocoon and is in stage two of metamorphosis.

You have a real sense of humor about it - I'd be very tempted to contract someone to nuke the site from orbit. It's the only way to be sure.

A third of the way through this bowl of Edward G. Robinson's Pipe Blend in a 2014 Basil Meadows smooth slight bend squashed tomato with an aluminum band and a black pearl acrylic stem in the military mount style.

Got all my walking in today, plus a little extra. I've about a third of a bowl left of Sutliff Prince Andrew in a 1980s straight smooth Big Ben pot with a nickel band and a black vulcanite saddle stem. Enjoyed a tasty, cold peach when I got back inside, too.

How do you like those wee misfits? I have been tempted by them a couple times.

The mouthpiece is weird. It's circular, so you kind of have to hold it with your teeth. But nice open draw.

Condor plug in a Chacom Army -- thanks BROBS for the link to get it from Ireland. I know it aint the original, but it's great for that Lakeland itch.
