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

[BCF]

Three Star Blue in a Brigham. Good.

 

[JimInks]

Enjoyed a regular size bowl of Raisin Bran with extra raisins, three plates of spaghetti and meatballs, some low sodium potato chips, and a bowl of freshly made strawberry ice cream for dessert. Then, I did a set of walking reps and smoked a 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. Gold Star Jamaica Blue Mountain Dark Roast, neat, is my drink.

[PipeIT]

L.J. Peretti Blend D-7485, a sample, along with some other samples sent to me graciously from @onepyrotec

First time trying this blend, in a 1967 - 1969 Dr. Grabow Commodore 65 Zulu, with a metal screw in tenon, stinger removed, and a Vulcanite stem.

I’ve been on the VA/VaPer trail along time, so switching it up with different blends like this. I need to seriously start checking out other blends now…

Be well everyone!

Half way through this bowl of year 2016 D&R Two Timer Gold in a straight, black sandblasted pre-1970 Comoy’s Sunrise Etched Grain straight Liverpool 309 with a tapered black vulcanite stem. Ice water and bergs is my drink.

Enjoyed a necessary nap, and am a third of the way through this bowl of John Aylesbury Scottish Blend in a 2002 black pebble finish straight Cavicchi C. Fatto A Mano lovat with a black acrylic saddle stem. This should get me to dinner time. Watching the Braves-Phillies game.
