We're taking off to Maine, by car, for a couple months so I'm prepping the boat for storms before we leave. Having a post lunch Old Toby in my Morgan Bones Lil Bill. Currently my favorite aro in my fav pipe. 
The last few puffs of yesterday's Newminster #306 English Oriental in a Johs straight semi-rusticated saddle stem bulldog, the largest chamber of my several bulldog shapes. Attended an interesting discussion of AI last evening with one professional in the field and other interested participant.
Beware of "relatives" phoning asking for money even if you recognize their voices -- this is one prominent AI scam. Several participants had asked for their resumes and got full resumes mostly entirely fictional. And so forth. While we also discussed many useful applications that might be useful and beneficial, if skepticism and illegality doesn't kidnap the technology. But the burden of skepticism is on us.

A quarter of the way through this bowl of early 2000s 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. Ice water and bergs is my drink. Watching Mad Dog Russo.
Another lazy fifth wheel morning, catching up on some reading with LJP Ampersand Flake in a diminutive Poul Hansen billard. The cat seems to like Virginias.
Dark Bird's Eye in a Savinelli Linea Artisan.
Enjoining a MB Classic „Vanilla“ Flake in the Jensen Chimney from the 70s.
Passing the half way mark on this bowl of 2017 Watch City Deluxe Crumb Cut in a 2016 Peretti's M.T. Natural made in Holland straight smooth brown Algerian briar billiard with a tapered black acrylic stem. Going to be a busy day, so I'm taking a short forum break. See ya soon.
Sutliff Crème Brûlée in a Savinelli Silver 606 EX
cshubhra, don't forget to give Sherlock and Watson a little love once in a while.
Did a set of walking reps, and I've a third of a bowl left of New Watch City Beta Test #1 in a smooth unfinished brown slight bend 2015 Savinelli 320KS author with a tapered black vulcanite stem. I'll be testing WC blends for a little bit.
Enjoying a bowl of Pegasus in a morta billiard whose maker I don't recall at the moment.
Peretti No.8 Slice in the Gefapip 'Giant' lumberman and iced decaf.
Now smoking New Watch City Beta Test #1 in a smooth straight 1930s unbranded Austrian 1930s zulu meer with a replacement tapered orange/brown acrylic stem. This pipe was owned by my late friend, David Ward.
