Starting off my smoking day with a bowl of early 2000s 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 in the military mount style. Watching Mad Dog Russo. Ice water and bergs is my drink.

Enjoyed a tall stack of cinnamon raisin French toast with a golden delicious apple on the side, and passing the half way mark on 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 Maui Red Catuai, neat, is my drink.

First smoke from a pipe that arrived in the mail half an hour ago. Haddo's.

Very thick walls, so bound to smoke cool* and it's a D grade!**

*this isn't a factual statement, but as an inveterate pipe smoker of longstanding I thought it my duty to do my bit, reinforce assertions made with frequency by my brethren, and thus contribute to the magical thinking on which the pursuit thrives.

**this is a factual statement, but one entirely without significance since no one in the entire world has the slightest clue as to whether the maker even had a grading system, much less how it worked. Nor do they care. As such, I've taken it upon myself to declare that "D" was his highest grade, with the possible exception of the perhaps apocryphal "D+ Supreme" none of which are thought to have ever been made or even contemplated.
