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

[JimInks]

Now smoking year 2021 Watch City Queequeg’s Moby Dick Series in a straight brown sandblasted post-WWII family era Sasieni “Canadian” London Made with a sterling silver band with a tapered black vulcanite twin bore stem. Spent a little time playing with Molly Danger. Sleepy Suzy got a little jealous, so she got some play time, too. Abner the Eager is still snoozin' on the couch. I think he could sleep through an atomic blast.

I can tell its morning. I copied a pipe picture to post and forgot to post it by the time I got to the bottom of the page. Ok..Some Makhuwa mixed with latakia in a Paul Becker Pot.

Did some yard work at my brother's house so I wanted a light pipe to clench. My old (late '50s) Medico system pipe fit the bill perfectly. Mixture 79 was an easy smoking blend that didn't need a lot of attention. A good smoke and a lot of work got done.

Almost half way though this bowl of Wilke Little Round Top in an undated straight smooth brown pre-Republic Peterson’s Sterling bulldog 150 with a sterling silver band and a black vulcanite saddle p-lip stem. I'll end the day with this smoke. Fed Harry the Hairy, and gave him some back and head scratches. I let him out, and said to Tomato the Brave, "You want to eat?" He replied, "Yip, Yip", and came running to the door. He ate, got plenty of attention like I gave Harry, and once I quit, he jumped down. He walked around the den, saw Abner the Eager snoozin', and tried to intimidate him. They hissed at each, and I told Tomato to stop. He knew he did wrong, and ran straight to the back door, and I put him out. I consoled Abner, and he's back to sleeping. Daisy the Feral Princess is in the kitchen being finicky.

We’ve had some rain in the desert and the cacti love it. I’m smoking some Klondike Gold in a Pre-Republic Peterson System 358. The 308 and its variants are the sexiest pipes Peterson Produced.

Blockade Runner in the Hardwood.



C&D Virginias seem to be a lot more sensitive to conditions than other makes. I’ve had a few smokes of BR that were pretty ashy due to wind or maybe dryness. But last night’s and this morning’s bowls are lightly sweet and tangy, and soft on the tongue thanks to the relative calm.

Nice.
It looks like the whole system is petering out just west/northwest of doing us any good. Got a whopping 1/8” at our property overnight and dirty windshields in the southeast metro Phx area

Pulled half a day at work and am smoking Dark Plug in an 80s before some outdoor tasks

I was in the mood for something simple. Going for the full Prince Albert experience (sans piercing, though) and going to light up some Prince Albert tobacco in a black, Gutta-percha Figural of King Edward VII of Britain (the Prince Albert depicted on the tobacco tin) with a briar insert, and orific bit, circa early 20th Century, probably the ’teens. Using a Thunderbird butane pipe insert in my Prince Albert Zippo.
