***What Are You Smoking, August 2025?***

[JimInks]

Did some low calorie snacking, and am passing the last quarter of this bowl of year 2018 D&R Raccoon’s Accent in a pre-WWII straight smooth brown The Lumberman Special (Comoy’s) with a tapered black vulcanite saddle stem. Tomato the Brave came in to eat, and he did plenty of that. Then, he went crazy over a catnip sock, bunny kicking, biting and tossing it around. He must have gotten drunk from it, because Tomato proceeded to run briskly to the kitchen and back to the den three times. He attacked the catnip sock again, then head butted my left leg, and decided that was enough showtime for me, so he wanted out. Daisy the Feral Princess and Sleepy Suzy watched that orange maniac with some amusement. I should sold them some popcorn. Then again, Daisy can't say much even if she could because after she ate, she bunny kicked, bit another catnip sock and pushed it around before she decided to lay on it. She's still laying on it. I let Harry the Hairy in to eat, but he didn't stay long when he saw what Tomato was doing. Guess Harry's smarter than I thought.

Now that it’s cooled down to an almost chilly 93* I’m winding the day down with a very special smoke in a very special pipe.
Grateful every day.

Near the first quarter of this bowl of first production Watch City American Cut Plug Mixture in a straight smooth brown Algerian briar family era Barling’s Make Billiard 6 with a tapered black vulcanite stem. The stampings suggest 1930s, but the “6” is a previously unknown stamp number as is its placement. This pipe is from the estate of David Cuneo.

A quarter of the way through this bowl of year 2012 Butera Pelican in a 1970s slight bend black sandblasted English Rustic 120S Billiard (Comoy’s second) with a black vulcanite saddle stem. This pipe originally belonged to my college art mentor, the late professor Walter Barker. The ferals are outside.

Now smoking year 2016 D&R Two Timer Gold in a 1982 smooth straight Sasieni Ivory 105 Apple with a black vulcanite saddle stem. This was my first Sasieni. Bought it at my local Tinderbox for $9.95. I may end the day with this smoke, Depends on how much of the time the ferals want because it's feeding time.

Man this pipes cool, looks like a beautiful day for a smoke.

Thank you, it was indeed!

Mario Pascucci -P Rust-2136 is starting to take on a nice color from regular smoking. Currently enjoying it with MRC 5 Year Matured Virginia – the combination really brings out a pleasant depth in both the pipe and the tobacco.
