What Did I Miss?

[peckinpahhombre]

I hope everyone is doing well. I am doing about as well as could be expected in the midst of all the craziness in the world at the moment. Still haven't figured out how to smoke a pipe while simultaneously wearing a face mask, but that is a subject matter for another post.

So, what are the top 5 things I have missed over the last few months?

HH Rustica

Many Weaver estate pieces popping up on SPC.

Lakelands are now widely popular.

Ken Byron Ventures Sakura.

Me going nuts buying pipes.

You know about fishnbanjo (Sante) passing away?

 

[workman]

Christmas?

Thanks guys. Duane, what is "Ken Byron Ventures Sakura"?

Yes, I know about fishbanjo as we were facebook friends. That one hit me hard, as we have had some interesting discussions over the years. Not long before he passed he sent me a pipe as a gift, which I treasure and smoke often. He will be missed. I also learned about Foggy's passing. He was also quite a character in my early days on this forum - such a fascinating guy.

Oh, and I have some HH Rustica right here, but haven't opened a tin yet. Good stuff?

One thing has not changed, you are still a dick.

Your sorry ass is #1! Don't do it again. Harris has been running wild I tell ya!...

Is that why you always suck when I am around?

Welcome back!

Lakelands are now widely popular.

Ken Byron Ventures Sakura.

Don't know about Sakura, but KBV sure is a great place to score some delicious Lakelands ?

 

[cigrmaster]

Just be ready to give my daughter a job when she graduates law school. She just finished her first year and came in 4th of 65. She is clerking for a judge this summer.

 

[peckinpahhombre]

That is great news, Harris. But why would she ever choose a profession like that? I talk my kids out of it every chance I get. More power to her, though.

 

[cigrmaster]

Her grandfather was a corporate attorney and I guess it is in the blood. Her great grandfather was one as well. She is focused and real serious and wants it. I leaned a long time ago to never argue with her when she has her mind made up.

 

[elpfeife]

Did you miss Harris praising red Virginias when smoked in a cob?

 

[brian64]

Me going nuts buying pipes Dunhills.

There...fixed that for you.

 

[mortonbriar]

Also Mcclellands blends are now spoken about in whispered reverence, with all the old timers in their 30s talking about the good old days last year.

 

[Chasing Embers]

There...fixed that for you.

Already threw one away, the stem was twisted. Only spent $300 on both Dunhills, up to $1200 on Weavers.

A cherry blossom aro, very nice!

Indeed.?

 

[petes03]

I decided to show back up as well peck. A lot has changed since I was here last. Good to see you.

 

[mikethompson]

Good to see you post again Peck, I still have that tin of Christmas Cheer you sent me for the Secret Santa exchange a few years ago.

You've missed:

-Ongoing debates about cobs and briars
-new members getting too political sometimes
-cranky old members getting too cranky sometimes
-debates over Peterson QC
-grumbling about the tobaccolypse

So basically not much.
