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

[JimInks]

Now smoking Mystery Test Blend X in a medium bend 2001 Ural lattice Rhodesian with a yellow with white swirls acrylic saddle stem. A friend sent this and two other samples in our guessing game. These samples were submitted by blender at the 2012 Chicago Show to see who could most faithfully recreate John Cotton’s No. 1&2. I’m wondering if any us involved will pick the one that was the winner. Have enough for one more bowl.

Brebbia No. 9 - ever find something that you had completely forgotten you even owned a little rough around the edges - but that syrian is gooooood

Love your stereo, I have an old Marantz, and Dual turntable. Are those pioneer speakers?

Good catch. The whole system is Pioneer. Circa 1976-77.

I’m also going to note here that from now on I am staying away from the like button (that’s what I hated about Facebook). I want you to know that I like each and everyone of you alls post even if I don’t hit the thumbs up icon. It’s turned into too much trouble and if I like one I feel like I have to like all (I’m neurotic like that) so it’s official. Please just assume that I’m liking each and everyone of your posts.

A minute or two away from smoking Mystery Test Blend Z in a 1986 three quarter bend Bacchus face CAO meer with a dark tortoise shell colored tapered acrylic stem. A friend sent this and two other samples in our guessing game. These samples were submitted by blender at the 2012 Chicago Show to see who could most faithfully recreate John Cotton’s No. 1&2. I’m wondering if any us involved will pick the one that was the winner. Working and listening to Gangbusters. Community Coffee, neat, is my drink.

During our Thursday evening Chicago Buds Pipe Klatch ZOOM, I smoked some Wilderness in a James Upshall sandblasted, saddle stemmed Lovat, one of the lightest weight pipes I own, and a great smoker. I tippled a little Old No. 7 with 4 bergs.
