C&D Tuggle Hall, to me a pleasing burley based English blend, full-flavored and rich, in a Savinelli 606 KS carved like a cob in briar, after humping my Monday chores changing cat litter boxes, walking bills to the mailbox, and recycling everything in sight. Enjoying some vin ordinaire red wine with this bowl, a little sweet but nice with a little pack of peanut butter crackers. My wife's making up some chili mac for supper. I really like this blend in this pipe, a nice big chamber but not too heavy, and bent so easy to clench. For productivity, I'm writing sermons, though I'm not a minister, hoping to pull a gig at my congregation when the real ministers are out on vacation. I may be a little edgy to make the cut. The denomination is "free-thinking;" we'll see.

How is the translucent coloring. I expect it has some spotting, yes?

Stuck inside at a conference this week. PS Luxury Flake on the drive in, after lunch and on the drive home in the Weber pot.

Christ Centered Preaching by Brian Chapell is a great resource.

Suttliff 515 from a Comoy's Tradition 338.
Not a shape I'd normally buy. Basically bought this because the dimensions and weight were perfect. And I'll tell ya, what a comfortable pipe. Just perfect.
Awful photo of the grain, which is actually pretty nice.

Listening to Joe Pass and Oscar Peterson myself recently. Coincidence? Such inventiveness and virtuosity—yet so melodic.

Nice pipe BTW!

Joe Pass and "O" - two of my favorites. Coincidence? I think not.
Always knew you were a man with taste. Haha
But really. The individuality, harmonizing, phrasing. Intricate but subtle. Virtuosity indeed
