What Are You Smoking? - August 2019.

Just finished smoking old Edward G. Robinson's Pipe Blend in a 2014 Basil Meadows smooth slight bend squashed tomato with an aluminum band and a black pearl acrylic stem in the military mount style.

Going to run a few errands, and going along for the ride is Jim’s B Blend in a smooth 1998 Parker 489 three quarter bend Billiard with a black vulcanite stem.

About to fire up a bowl of Wilke #191 in a Barling pot. Iced tea on the side.

Good morning, gentlemen. Smoking Tabac Manil Pure Semois La Brueuse in a Savinelli Spinosa 320 KS with coffee and water on the side.

Salutations, gents. SWRA in the trusty Falcon Billiard with a Rusticated Apple bowl. Finishing up the espresso and the V8.

G'Day Mates!

Whitehall Black Tie in a sissified Magenta Cob> I quit painting pipes after this one

Now puffing on a bowl of Wilke Best Make in a CurlyTop brandy stack.
Iced tea on the side.

Back home from the dentist. Half the mouth is numb, the other half is smoking Condor RR in a 2013 bent MM Missouri Pride Legend with a yellow stem. A bottle of Sprite is my drink. Watching the Dodgers-Marlins game.

Now smoking Erik Stokkebye 4th Generation: Small Batch Aged Virginia in a 2002 smooth natural straight silver banded Ardor Venere Extra Fatta A Mano Maigret billiard, signed by Dorelio Rovera and a black acrylic tapered stem.

Half a bowl of Yorktown on my way to work. The other half on my way home.

Finishing up a HUGE Briar Spirit full of Comoys #7. A cup of Earl Grey on the side.

Having a cold when its 105 outside SUCKS

I'd be smoking cheap stuff if I had a cold. Can't taste anything anyway.

That's the strange part, I can still taste stuff and still have an appetite. Maybe its Zika virus!

And at ~$30 a pound, this is fairly cheap

Just finished smoking Lane Burley and Black in a 2003 medium bent Ural meer with a lined and etched egg shaped bowl with a brown pearl acrylic saddle stem.

Now smoking Wilke #515 in a 1998 smooth straight Butz-Choquin Bistro 1501 pot with a black vulcanite saddle stem. This will get me to dinner time. Ice water and bergs is my evening drink. Watching the Braves-Mets game.

Great Outdoors now, in the MM Polished Morgan cob (a different one, with the regular stem.) Cool water. Watching "Naked and Afraid."

Arango Balkan Supreme in the JB Devil Anse Stack. Cool water. Nursing a vodka shot.

"Schwiddly Doo Wah" plug in an eggiweg, oh my brothers.

Relaxing after a wonderful big burrito dinner, and am now smoking Mac Baren Amphora Kentucky Blend in a 1980s Peterson 314 three quarter bend black sandblast system pipe with a nickel ferrule, black vulcanite stem and the p-lip.

Good evening, guys. Smoking Sutliff Flying Dutchman Match in a Falcon Hunter with a calabash meerschaum bowl. Watching the talking heads on cable news.

Just finished smoking 1970s Lane Limited Edgeworth Cavendish (Brown) in a smooth medium bend straight grain 2001 Karl Erik Ekstravagant brandy with a leaf engraved silver band and a black acrylic stem. Taking a very short work break.

A quarter of the way through this bowl of Sutliff Prince Albert Match in a 1980s straight smooth Big Ben pot with a nickel band and a black vulcanite saddle stem.

Not far from finishing this bowl of Jim's Va/Bur in a 2015 Basil Meadows Bing Crosby Merchant Service replica with a smooth straight thin shank, aluminum band and black ebonite stem. Taking a short work break as I listen to an early episode of The Great Gildersleeve.

Now smoking Watch City VaPer Test Sample #1 in a smooth straight Lane era Charatan Executive Extra Large stretch apple with diagonal channel cuts on the lower right and left of the bowl along with a black vulcanite double comfort stem. This pipe was formerly owned by actor William Conrad.

Just finished smoking Jim's Evolving Work Blend in a 2003 Stanwell Golden Danish 56 Rusticated Canadian with a black vulcanite stem. Work is done for the day, and it's time to snack!
