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

[Choatecav]

Near the last quarter of this bowl of Wilke Wall Street w/o perique in a smooth light brown quarter bend 1928-1931 KBB Drinkless Kaywoodie Synchrosystem patent Rock Ambera 7209 yachtsman with a tapered rock ambera stem. I'll end the day with this smoke. It started raining harder, and Harry the Hairy's still outside. I called to him several times, but I think he's too scared to come out from under the deck. Daisy the Feral Princess wanted out, but when she did, she saw the rain, and ran back in. Tomato the Brave is snoozin' on m'lady's chair.

The Latest: I looked out to see if Harry was around. He was at the back door with a dead mouse beside him. Guess he figured that would pay for being a house guest out of the rain.

I always chuckle at how proud they are to bring their latest conquests to us for showing. There have been some really odd trophies brought in over the years.

New pipe arriving today from Italy.. feeling particularly GREAT because I had to pay $97 in fees (tariff).

In the meantime, Steamworks in the small Radice Clear billiard.
Radice doesn’t make a ton of these smaller pipes, but when they do, they’re usually fantastic.

Haunted Bookshop in a Briar by Lee, drinking sweet tea. Watching birds in my backyard. I got everything from woodpeckers to cardinals to these little blue and orange birds kinda like a finch but it's not a finch. Beautiful morning.

I've been recuperating from double transplants and a stroke, and have been mostly smoking cigars instead of my pipes. I opened my cellar for the first time in 5 years. I was so happy to see several tins of the McClelland Frog Morton series. So I'm starting on a tin of Cellar. Oh how I missed it so.

Welcome back, I hope you have a speedy recovery and enjoy your stash!

Hamborger Veermaster in an 1898 BBB Donkey Nut. I’m grateful Ryan took this project on.

Here’s a write up of the restoration.

1896 BBB (Blumfeld’s Best Donkeynut) Restored by Ryan Alden :: Pipe Talk

Here’s a pipe I purchased twice. The first time it was scooped up by the corrupt eBay Global Shipping scumbags, and the second time by their resellers eBay UK. The funny part the reseller used Royal Airmail. The price was roughly the same, both times all in all. When it arrived I knew the stem...

Starting my weekend with a Padron 3000. These were among the first cigars I tried and are a benchmark for me.

Congratulations. You are going to have a ton of fun getting him wound up and loaded up with sugar and caffeine before giving him back to his mom and dad.

Starting your weekend out excellent I'd say. It's Thursday for one, and a Padron in hand too! Nice!
