***What Are You Smoking, August 2024?***

[Sobrbiker]

I thought I had lost my Ropp J11P while pouring out a concrete truck this morning, but found it in my pickup, whew!
Now having some C&D Exclusive while shuffling our dump to fleet to plug up an oil leak on the old girl. 14yrs past her projected replacement date, she’ll still outperform any new 10yd truck in our inventory so I’ve lobbied to keep her.

Exclusive? Finished. As of right now, Gray Ghost, finished.

Gray Ghost in meerschaum billiard, to be followed either by Dreams of Kadath, or this Fiat Lux cigar which I bought because it was rather cheap and gathering dust in a corner of the store and I'm apparently a huge softie like that.

longer than I like, but that’s a beautiful blast!


And now on to Peterson’s The Royal Yacht in a Short Army, making sure that the storms drains will drain.

Cigar Time: H Upmann 1844 Reserve
The color in the meerschaum holder is after 32 cigars (Including this one).

Somehow it looks more colored in real life than in the photo.

when I did dabble in cigars, I preferred H Upmann’s. Even though the lower lines that I bought had to be skewered to open their draw, they kept their wrap riding a motorcycle best of the brands I tried.

Thank you man. Dimitri makes a great pipe. I need to get him to do a nose warmer for me.
Rocking “Shorty” today I see. I don’t blame you either

Enjoyed a tasty lunch, and have a third of a bowl left of Ken Byron Ventures Jim’s Special Flake 2023 in a 1984 black rusticated full bend Peterson Mark Twain military mount egg with a silver cap and tapered black vulcanite p-lip stem. Gold Star Jamaica Blue Mountain, neat, is my drink. Have enough left for a cup or two. Watching the Guardians stage a big comeback, and they are leading the Royals 7-5 in the 8th. Got a whole bunch of Per G. Jensen DFK, and Bold&Strong (Rustica) bulk today. Dunno what to do with it all since it's more than I'll smoke.

I finished off that first tin of C&D Eight State Burley day before yesterday, then yesterday was D&S Merry Monk, but today I decided to change it up, I bought one each of these when they came out, have tried 3 of them so far, this is my 4th one in the series, we'll see how it goes.

Did a set of walking reps in the 105 degree heat index, and am just finishing this bowl of year 2015 D&R A.B. Rimboche in an undated slight bend, smooth flame grain Wessex Standard egg with a brown accent on the black vulcanite saddle stem. Plenty of ice water and bergs is my drink. Tomato the Brave did a little walking with me while Harry the Hairy stood guard at the end of my drive way. I picked up Tomato and brought him in the eat. Daisy the Feral Princess is snoozin' on her blanket, and Abner the Eager is snoozin' on m'lady's lap. Sleep Suzy is by my side. Molly Danger is snoozin' in the bedroom.

Now smoking and reviewing Sutliff Old Professor # 526 in a 1980s SMS eagle claw egg medium bend meerschaum signed by Ismail Baglan with a brown and cream swirl acrylic stem. I should smoke this meer more often.
