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. A bottle of Cheerwine made with pure cane sugar is my drink. Watching the White Sox-Red Sox game.

Now smoking HU Old Fredder’s Broken Flake in a smooth straight early 1960s Lane era 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. This pipe was formerly owned by actor William Conrad. A hot and humid day here as I venture to do as little as possible this afternoon.

Now smoking MacBaren HH Burley Flake in a 2002 medium bend smooth Rinaldo EGEA 03 Silver line spigot 10 with a black acrylic stem. Simply Lemonade is my drink. Suzy was on my lap until I got up to get a new smoke and drink, and she wasn't happy about it. But, now she's laying on my feet, so all is well in her world. She is the ultimate lap cat.

C&D Cigar Leaf with a dusting of the last of a pouch of SWR Aromatic in a orange stain bent billiard with an orange stem by N.C. carver Jerry Perry; this was the compact pipe of choice when I visited Nat Sherman pipe shop in Manhattan where I smoked some of their Nat Sherman 536, a refined English blend with burley I bought in bulk.

Just past the half way mark on this bowl of MacBaren Mystery Blend in a 2003 smooth three quarter bend Rinaldo Fiammata Odissea Titania 02 Silver Line 3 Straight Grain egg with a black acrylic stem. I still can't talk about the blend, but it's due out in August along with another special blend I haven't tried yet. Ice water and bergs is my evening drink.

Smoking a bowl of 7 year old Condor Plug generously donated to me by a brother piper from another forum in a 6 1/2 " cutty meerschaum with a short amber stem and watching the world go by while seated at my work desk. This is my last bowl of the day whilst I cut up some G&H plug for tomorrow before I take my blood pressure pill and turn in for the night. Have a good evening gents!
