Jim I need you help with votes for Rouxgaroux 😁
Since the blend is mostly my formula, I think it'd be unfair for me to vote. I would like to see Rouxgaroux win, though.

Been enjoying a quiet day of just catching up. I sent my tax files both personal and corporate to my accountant so all that remains is to get them back, sign the completed returns and send in a check to Uncle Sam so he can bling himself up with more shit that doesn't do anything for me! I am smoking this old favorite of mine which is an early 20th century (like 1900s) meerschaum 'cutty' with a Redmanol stem. I suspect the stem may be a later addition from some time before 1922 since I think the Redmanol company was taken over by the company that made Bakelite in 1922 and the Redmanol Corporation only started in 1913. It also might be an example of 'Ruby Amber' which was a color of faux amber used during this time and often misrepresented on Ebay all the time as 'Cherry Amber' and other such nonsense. I am smoking a bowl of 1999 RB Plug to enjoy the scents and nuances of a truly great tobacco before it got changed.

Not far from finishing this bowl of year 2015 John Aylesbury Sir John’s Flake Virginia in a straight smooth light brown 2020 Ryan Alden Ace of Spades squat bulldog with a spalted pecan top and ferrule that’s attached to the tapered black acrylic stem.
