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

[JimInks]

Almost a third of the way through 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. Just fed Sleepy Suzy and Molly Danger. Ice water and bergs is my drink.

Wow, that's some wonderful grain! What's the other side look like?

Peterson does a great blast........... when they want to. Here's your "Pipe Porn".

Currently smoking my Savinelli 645 bent apple short pipe with some Sutliff 515RC-1 and a nice morning coffee.

I rarely smoke larger than group 2 pipes, but when I do it’s one of my father’s.
This time it’s Match Victorian in his Royal Danish 988.
Hard to believe he never burned it out, as I remember this pipe in his mouth almost every summer evening “cocktail cruising” around Little St Germaine on our pontoon boat.
Grateful he’s still above ground at 94.

Yeah that's a great blast all around. Hopefully they still let some of these trickle down to the lower lines rather than saving them for the higher ones.

Stokkebye morning blend and 5 bros. in an Austrian Meer, still reading Twains bio. I am really impressed with Ron Powers writing. Definitely going to read more from this author.

Great to hear. I just picked up this book as well. It's next once I finish Children of Dune.

Great choice @AreBee ! It is a study of American history as well. He’s a pipe smoker and very complex individual.

Old Joe Krantz in a Pete SPD 2011 69.

Yes he was. Being a Connecticut resident, Twain history is mandatory. I also watched the first of two episodes of the Ken Burns documentary on him. Excellent so far. Not sure if you saw my post about touring his home a few months ago. I posted a handful of pipe related pics from the museum at the home.

Brebbia Balkan in Northern Briars. This stuff is so wonderful, I bought 50 more tins since the Mac Baren deal. It’s a nice, full Perique flavored English with a decent Kentucky addition.
