Old Overholt? Brings back a few memories. Big on Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey, which is 51 or 52% corn. When I started drinking Evan Williams I asked dad why I liked it more. It was a 7 YO. Corn breaks down after 6 Yrs so you get the Rye taste. After that I adopted Old Overholt for years. Thanks for bringing that up.
Relaxing after a wonderful pork chops, green beans and mac 'n cheese dinner with a dessert smoke: Peter Stokkebye Pistachio (No.27) in a 2003 medium bent Ural meer with a lined and etched egg shaped bowl with a silver band and a pearl brown acrylic stem. Watching the Rays-Yankees game.
A third of the way through this bowl of Watch City Flake #558 in a smooth straight early ‘60s Lane era “William Conrad” Charatan Executive Extra Large stretch apple with diagonal channel cuts on the lower right and left of the bowl along with a black vulcanite double comfort stem.
Now smoking aged Rotary Navy Cut in a post WW2 Pre-Republic Peterson Dublin straight smooth X155 Bulldog with a sterling silver band. Have enough left for one more bowl. Watching Mannix.
Now smoking D&R VIP in a 2004 smooth long shank Canadian Trever Talbot Ligne Bretagne Faite en Bretagne 4/3 with a black vulcanite stem. Working and phone chatting about baseball.
Now smoking C&D Crooner in the very first pipe I ever bought ($2.49) in 1974; a smooth three quarter bend Dr. Grabow Omega with a black vulcanite stem.
Now smoking Edgeworth Ready Rubbed Match in a very much appreciated 1979 brown, slight bend grain etched flat front Stanwell Rego 969-48 (09) with a black vulcanite stem. Have enough left for a bowl or so. Watching Gunsmoke.
Just finishing this bowl of 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. Simply Orange is my drink.
Bobo: sometimes, it just happens, man.
