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

[JimInks]

Enjoyed a tasty lunch, and am near the first third of this 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. Gold Star Jamaican Estate Reserve, neat, is my drink. I forgot to mention in my last post that when I walked up the hill during my first lap, I saw Shy Stripesy in a yard near the top. I stopped and talked to it as I reached for a cell phone, but by the time I got ready to take a photo, Stripesy disappeared. There's an elderly couple who live up there who takes care of feral cats so may be they've been feeding it. I'll ask them soon.

St. Bruno flake in an Old Dominion cob. I prefer St. Bruno a bit old, dried out a good amount and with the topping somewhat worn off, which seems to be the opposite of a lot of folks.

Half way through this bowl of year 2021 Erik Stokkebye 4th Generation Evening Flake in a smooth medium bend 2021 Peterson Ebony POTY 4AB No. 422/500 military mount with a silver cap and a tapered black vulcanite AB stem. Abner the Eager was in the chair he usually snoozes outside. When I went out to call him, he actually came to me whereas I normally have to pick him up. I picked him up anyway, and as soon as I brought him inside, Tomato the Brave, who was on m'lady's lap, saw him. Tomato ran to the kitchen figuring to block Abner from eating. I handed Abner to m'lady, took a bowl of dry food to him, and he ate on her chair. Tomato wasn't overly thrilled by that, and wanted out. Abner's eating a lot more than usual, so he'll get all that he wants.

Now smoking unreleased 2021 Sutliff Virginia plug in a 2002 straight grain Karl Erik Ekstravagant A medium bend dublin sitter with a small horn ferrule accent and black acrylic saddle stem. This will take a while to smoke. Ice water and bergs is my drink. Cleaned a few pipes, and am relaxing for a change with Sleepy Suzy by my side. Abner the Eager is laying near my feet. Btw, our most "trusted" for the last twelve years Inaccu-weather predicted rain and thunderstorms all day. The sun has been out all of that time.
