Gonna skip
"Skippable Drivel" today because that's probably what this post is . . . . or a collection of useless information. You've heard of a "twofer." Well, this is an "eightfer", a quick snapshot of three smokes and other skippable drive you may, or may not, wish to read after the picture.
1. Yesterday's final smoke, the
Kwiki Grape cigar stub in the flowerpot holder.
2. Letting y'all know that a flowerpot holder makes a great ashtray, especially at the computer. Cheap, too!
3. The at present usual morning smoke of
"Captain Black Cherry Cavendish" in my
MiniCob.
4, Letting y'all know that a cigar stub makes a great
pipe cork, as good as anything I've used.
5. Letting y'all know what my afternoon smoke will be, a
Kwiki Grape cigar. so I can renew the stub in the holder, for the next tamping job I do at the computer.
6. A clever (arrogantly says he) and
arty-crafty photograph of my GIMP processing of the present post you are now viewing, after just tamping out. (see point 8)
7. Informing you that I haven't decided on my evening smoke yet, but probably
something wimpy. Tastebuds are returning, now a little better than yesterday but still only in 3rd gear, courtesy of whatever it is that's been harassing me for the past week.
8. FYI, my use of the term
"arty-crafty" is NOT a positive thing . . . . it is used up here, and probably elswere, as a derogatory slur or comment by a client or pro, directed at a usually very rookie or braindead artist or photographer, on a piece of egotistical and wretched excess, presented to this potential client, employer, or teacher as an audition or product.
Been there and done that, from both sides of the fence.
Cheers.
