***What Are You Smoking, July 2025?***

Agressive, stunning and certainly eye candy in the most bizarre way!!

That is one hell of a way to describe Paul.

A third of the way through this bowl of year 2024 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. All the cats are fed, and all the ferals are outside. Ice water and bergs is my drink.

This pipe never ceases to amaze (frighten?) me. Agressive, stunning and certainly eye candy in the most bizarre way!!

I don’t know why I said Bulldog as it’s a 55 . It’s probably because I’m wiped out from yard work or as High as a Georgia Pine off the HH ODF
Bully up next though !

Another Bones filled with Dark Moor during the home stretch of a 10k training ruck for the 20 miler I'm doing in October to raise money for a community center in honor of my buddy killed 20 years ago October 6th.

I decided to jog the last k, pipe in mouth puffing with 40 pounds on my back...I think the neighbors now believe me to be crazy, and I know my physical therapist hates me for these types of shenanigans.

hmm have never tried that.. I have the Amphora V,B,K, and E pouches. Think I will give it a try. Do you mix

hmm have never tried that.. I have the Amphora V,B,K, and E pouches. Think I will give it a try. Do you mix 50/50?

Yes it's 50/50 .It's no bad really and maybe some Perique would not be bad.

I'm seeing more Savinelli Tortuga's popping up on the forum and that's a good thing. I think they are gorgeous pipes.

The last of a tin of McClelland's 40th Anniv Flake. Pipe is a GBD Virgin grade billiard.

Earlier, I did a set of walking reps, and smoked a bowl of year 2016 D&R Three Sails in a slight bent black pattern etched 1977 Lorenzo Lorsan Sigma level top billiard with a gray swirl acrylic saddle stem. I followed that up with a tasty lunch.


Then, I smoked a bowl of year 2020 Watch City Rouxgaroux in a smooth medium bend 2021 Peterson POTY Natural 4AB No. 6/500 military mount with a silver cap and a tapered black vulcanite AB stem.


Currently, I'm smoking year 2016 D&R Two Timer Gold in a 1982 smooth straight Sasieni Ivory 105 Apple with a black vulcanite saddle stem. This was my first Sasieni. Bought it at my local Tinderbox for $9.95. It's been a busy day, and will be all night, too. Got the new C&D blends today, and will start reviewing soon. Watching/listening to the Braves-Cards game. Gold Star Peruvian Macchu Picchu, neat, is my drink.

My sincere sympathies for your contrainment. Dealing with the same kind of thing with antibiotics. While misery indeed loves company, I'm finding the best thing is to make lemonade out of the lemon.

We shall soldier on, eh? And kudos for those bulldogs. Beautiful pipes. Will have to get one sometime in the future, but right now I've too many short and long pipes, and need a couple of Mama Bears to fill the gap. One on its way hehehehe.

@gord
Thanks for the best wishes.
A recent bout of gut infection must have lowered my immunity.
What I thought was a “cold” went into my chest.
Luckily a few days of Prednisone fixed it.

I love Bulldogs.
The Danes are masters of doing variations on the theme.
