Recovering from 8 days camping in the Tahoe mountains. Kelly’s coin, 5 brothers and Morning blend sustained me for the week. Relaxing this morning with 50/50 Half&Half and 5 brothers in a Morgan Arbutus poker, while sipping strong coffee and catching up on the WAYs thread. I must admit I missed this forum with my morning smoke and coffee. Lots of off road adventures, but nice to be back home 
At the half way mark of this bowl of pre-2014 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. Fed the ferals. Daisy the Feral Princess still doesn't want to come inside. Don't know why, but whatever makes her happy is fine with me. Since the others are outside, she won't get wet food. Tomato the Brave is inside eating.
I noticed that my local MLB TV channel didn't play High Heat today, at least not in my area because I DVR'd it, and it didn't record the show. I'm having to watch it on YouTube. In fact, Mad Dog Russo's show isn't on every week day any more. Anybody know why?

Sir John's Flake Virginia in an Altinok.
You didn't mention duct tape !Cyl 3 misfire that’s intermittent but won’t go away (plugs, wires, rotor/cap, injector, no vacuum leaks, good compression, etc).
It’s the last year of the Dodge 360 Magnum-probably all leftover parts
That is a head scratcher. Sticky valve or maybe a worn cam lobe not allowing the valve to open all the way? Could be a teeny tiny leak in the intake manifold gasket. Probably a stupid glitch in the ECU.Cyl 3 misfire that’s intermittent but won’t go away (plugs, wires, rotor/cap, injector, no vacuum leaks, good compression, etc).

It surprised me when I put them next to each other.
Did a set of walking reps under cloudy, humid skies, and am close to finishing this bowl of year 2016 D&R Three Sails in an undated straight brush etched black Molina apple with a nickel band and a tapered black vulcanite stem. I don't know when the rain is coming, but I hope it holds off long enough for me to get another set of walks in.
C&D Izmir Turkish in my English cob.
When I first smoked this varietal on its own, I thought "oh, so that's what gives my English blends that 'burning leaves' smell, great" and put it back on the shelf for a while. Recently, I've gotten it out again and have been surprised by how easily sweet it is. I smoked three or four bowls to confirm that it wasn't just residue from some other blend I had recently smoked. Nope, this is pretty nice on its own!

Evening smoke of Capstan Blue folded in an XX Ashton Old Church short saddle stem billiard
Old Joe Kranto Red Label in a Radice Rind brandy.
SPC BBA Hogshead in a James Upshall X Grade dublin.
Finishing off a bowl of Cowboy Coffee in the SMS.
Enjoyed a tasty lunch, and am smoking year 2020 Watch City Rouxgaroux in a smooth medium bend 2021 Peterson POTY Natural 4AB No. 6/500 military mount with a silver cap and a tapered black vulcanite AB stem. Gold Star Peruvian Macchu Picchu, neat, is my drink.
Sutliff 507-C Navy Flake in the Pete Pub ... about halfway down it developed a sweet flavor like very mild cherry/berry ... the previous bowls of lane 1-Q must have mildly ghosted it. Very pleasant indeed.
Cold columbian coffee with cream afterwards.

As promised @JimInks, here is the Peterson System Premier 309 Made in the Republic of Ireland I sent to my friend Steve at RebornPipes for restoration. It was stained black. The vulcanite P-lip stem has one of those chimneys in it.
I just lit up some Briar Fox in it for its first smoke with me and it is super smooth and cool. You were correct, Jim, it is a great smoker.
I have never liked the P-lip more than on this pipe. I am happy I did not completely dismiss them.
Glad you got the answer.
