***What Are You Smoking, Sept. 2020?

[JimInks]

Yes. It's a Jiminks invented term for ice cubes.

Somehow it makes the drink better when you call the ice cubes, bergs.

Actually, the "bergs" come from the Arctic Circle, and are delivered by our trusty, occasionally sober St. Bernard and his merry band of nubile reindeer.

Just finished a long, fun Zoom chat. I smoked:
Year 1985 MacBaren Scottish Mixture in a 2015 Basil Meadows Bing Crosby Merchant Service replica with a smooth straight thin shank, aluminum band and black ebonite stem.

Watch City Rhythm & Blues in a black sandblasted straight 1998 XXX Ashton lovat with a black acrylic saddle stem.

Year 2008 H&H Anniversary Kake in a smooth 1979 Chippendale (Charatan second) Rhodesian 49 with a black vulcanite saddle stem.

KBV Merchant Service Pipes Unnamed American Blend Prototype in a 2019 straight smooth dark brown Merchant Service “Bing” with a nickel band and black vulcanite tapered stem.

Year 2014 Kramer's Blend for Cary Grant in a 1949 medium bend Dunhill Shell with a black vulcanite tapered stem.

And I'm just past the half way mark on this bowl of Prince Albert in a 2015 Basil Meadows black sandblasted billiard with an aluminum band and a pearl red acrylic tapered stem.

Damn @jiminks! That is pretty long I guess.??️

Evenin’ gents.

This is my night that I go hog wild on pipes since I have to force myself to stay up all night to get back into the nocturnal lifestyle. I’m starting out with MB Dark Twist in the Mario Grandi while I contemplate what my next pipes will be. Shall I open up something new or stick with the 200 jars I already have “open”? Hmmmmm, that is the question... to be continued.

Peterson Irish Flake, rubbed out in a straight sandblasted Musico Apple

 

[jmsmitty6]

I had a few more bowls than normal today. Started the day out with Burley Morning Pipe, had a few bowls of a bourbon/vanilla aromatic blend i get from a local tobacco shop, and now, I'm smoking my first ever bowl of C & D Redburn. I bought it a while ago and never got around to trying it. Tins got just over a year of age on it, and I am really enjoying it. I may have to pick up a few tins for the cellar.

I bought some Redburn on a lark, what’s it akin too?

Ice water and floaty widdle ice bergs is my drink.
