Just passing the half way mark on this bowl of year 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. Watching Mad Dog Russo.

I love this Bones Bent Kiwi! I’d say I wish I’d just started with this pipe and spent $45 and called it good, lol, but my nose would crash through the garage window for telling a big lie! KBV Mr. C’s Stoved and Red. Other than some Wilke notables, this is my favorite aro now - tried it based on an @JimInks 3.5* review - it’s 4/4 for me!747725AA-E4E6-4C2A-BA8B-21B61B0ECA68.jpeg

Smoking Three Nuns tonight, in another MM corn cob pipe, from the modified series "Rusticob" as sold by Aristocob, a few years back.
Drinking a hot, red, spicy drink and reading the poem "The Lake Isle" by the "heretic" American poet Ezra Pound (1885 – 1972). I find it very nice and since it is related to our "thing", please allow me to put it here below:

The Lake Isle

O God, O Venus, O Mercury, patron of thieves,
Give me in due time, I beseech you, a little tobacco-shop,
With the little bright boxes
piled up neatly upon the shelves
And the loose fragment cavendish
and the shag,
And the bright Virginia
loose under the bright glass cases,
And a pair of scales
not too greasy,
And the votailles dropping in for a word or two in passing,
For a flip word, and to tidy their hair a bit.

O God, O Venus, O Mercury, patron of thieves,
Lend me a little tobacco-shop,
or install me in any profession
Save this damn’d profession of writing,
where one needs one’s brains all the time.

Keep calm good people and may God help and comfort the people of Turkey.
