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

[TN Jed]

Tongue therapy has advanced to Winchester in a Ryan Alden

 

[Carol]

Capstan Blue flake in a long clay. Great smoke.

 

[tfdickson]

Simply Red Cake in my MG.

 

[JimInks]

Relaxing after a wonderful salad, chicken legs and green beans dinner with strawberries for dessert. I'm almost a third of the way through this bowl of year 2014 FVF in a much cherished smooth, brown straight grain three quarter bend 1979 Becker M 4 heart brandy with a black acrylic saddle stem. Community Coffee, neat, is my drink. Molly Danger came out a couple of hours ago, and has been very persistent about wanting my attention ever since I finished dinner. Except for Harry the Hairy who has been snoozin' out of Molly's sight, the others are outside.

PS Luxury Navy Flake in the new Peterson Newgrange. I've had the LNF for maybe three or four months now. Waiting to see how it'll age - first time trying it. Not knocking me out yet, but I'm wondering if it's like Opening Night - didn't amaze me at first, but after a year - wow!

 

[Servant King]

Three Nuns in a Stefano Rhodesian after catching up with my father-in-law, who turned 80 today. My cellar should last me at least until that age; otherwise, it's clearly time to panic. 8/10

Bird report: House finch, Mountain chickadee, California scrub-jay, American crow, Steller's jay, California quail, Brewer's blackbird, Hairy woodpecker, and California towhee.

I test drove both, and the Frontier won on power and smoothness of the ride. I did love the looks of the Gladiator though. But, I rarely go offroad, and accessories just aren’t me. My wife says I just don’t look like a Jeep guy, whatever that means. But… breaking in the truck with some Edisto in a Hilson billiard.

More EZ1 in a Grecian Briar grade E pre Sven Lar pipe by M. Kabik for Tobak’s with the initials MK. This will be my last pipe for the foreseeable future. It is a big pipe with beautiful grain chased around the bowl and stem.

Another El Viejo Continente Culebra Cigar

 

[JimInks]

Enjoyed a tasty golden delicious apple, and am almost a third of the way through this bowl of year 2012 Esoterica Dunbar in a smooth straight, dark brown 1960s Lane era Charatan Selected 43 Dublin with a black vulcanite double comfort saddle stem. This pipe was formerly owned by actor William Conrad. Watching the Yankees-Angels game with Sleepy Suzy soundlessly living up to her name.

 

[Phiredog]

A quick, windy smoke here in Sacramento of Country Squire Sweet Burley in a Medico Jetstream. Heading home in the morning.
