Thanks! The pipe is just a hobby block I carved a while back. I didn’t have a clue about pipe carving at the time, but it turned out well enough, and is now my primary English blend pipe. It actually smokes great. The dog is a black and rust Doberman that I’ve had since he was a pup. Smartest, most obedient dog I’ve ever had. He’s about 12 years old now, which is old for a Doberman. Sometimes I wonder how much longer he’ll be around. He still acts like a puppy though, and he and I do some back porch sitting when I can. He’s the only one in the house that doesn’t bitch about how bad my guitar playing is ?

Always wanted a Doberman ever since I saw "the Lads" on Magnum P.I. when I was little. That show nearly ruined me.......... the idea of living in Hawaii on an estate with its own private beach, drive a Ferrari for free, no job and lots of chasing girls..... Then I grew up.
