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

[PA Piper Mike]

Smoking some 2021 Stonehaven with some nice plume, courtesy of my SS @TheIronMonkey ...Thanks Jeff, some tasty stuff. I'm definitely a fan of this blend now.

Smoking it in my sav author with black coffee.

OK edit here...after smoking this for about 30 mins, I'm LOVING this stuff. I'm thinking I'm gonna need to start hitting up some B&Ms more frequently now. BTW, I'm pretty sure this is my first dance with VaBurs, so are there any other VaBurs out there that are just as good, if not better?

Having a small bowl of From Beyond in the Ropp J10 this morning. More appropriate being it’s 15 degrees out. That being said, I’m thoroughly enjoying it. First day I haven’t had to work since mid December.

Finishing off the tin if H&H First Snow in a Grabow with coffee this morning, tainted with turmeric . Hopefully the gods don’t judge me too harshly.

You cant use paypal at all...zero in the EU for tobacco purchases. Its hard to say who is behind the problems. In the EU everyone is chasing the same tax dollars so it gets complex. You can buy pipes but not tobacco products.

So your saying their hand may have been forced. I am not surprised of course.

@Ben.R.C Im saying it is very possible. I really doubt corperate America has grown a conscience. Paypal is a publically traded company. That means profits above all else are king. A dollar is a dollar. My guess is a boat load of regulations have made their life confusing so they have to pass it on. Not that I love paypal because I dont.

Good afternoon. I start with the first third of St. Bruno, in a General MM. I accompany it with a few shots of Scotch whisky. And taking advantage to share the same hobbies as our friend Scott and many other colleagues, lovers of the sea and boats. I bought this book in 2005. A treasure from my modest library.
