Not smoking it tonight, but I have been judicious in smoking my Strang, because when it is gone it is gone.
Got more headed my way thanks to Desolbones...wooohoo!

The aquarium is in the right side of my desk, every time i was watching a movie in the pc or reading or i was just smoking my pipe and enjoying my coffee the turtles were watching me especially Packy. Every time i entered the room or got up from the chair she turned her head to me, was watching every move when i was sitting on the desk. Many times i was teasing her with my finger and she was trying to ''bite'' it behind the glass but when i was trying to feed her close to her mouth was very shy. Very often i was laying down my pipe to watch them play of fighting each other for who's gonna bite the biggest piece of meat or fruit. I consider them as ''pipe smoking companions'' because they never-ever reacted badly to the smoke of the pipe although they olfaction is very sensitive. When my wife was making roast meat in the kitchen although they didn't have any visual contact at all they were making like crazy because they smell (and felt) that extra food is coming. The ''madness-time'' was when my wife was approaching with 2 toasts, the smell of the roast turkey made them splash the water in a phrenitis and they didn't give up till i decide to give them a piece of it.  Here is an older photo of Packy, she is at the top stretching her left leg. I know that Humanity has far more serious problems but i lost my 10+ years pipe smoking companion, i miss her, i still haven't believe it and i know that the future Winter smoking days would never be the same. Thank you all for your kindly words and your support.   Another photo from my latest vacations, Vanilla tobacco, double espresso and kompoloi in a Cafe very close to the beach. |

Always love the pictures of Greece, Sid. What a beautiful place!
I am sorry to hear about the loss of your pet, losing one is always hard. They require little, but offer much.

Soborg Danish Made Bent Brandy 2018 Dunhill Durbar... black coffee alongside... Today will be a day of rest and preparation for tomorrow. The studying and compiling is done. Tomorrow evening I will begin a new chapter in my life, preaching my first sermon. If you were to tell me at 67 I would begin to preach I would have asked you to get a checkup from the neck up. Nevertheless, I’ll go where God leads me and do as He instructs. Puff On me Hearties, Puff On...  |

back from the a.m. doings. Glaucoma yes, but very mild. Gas at Rez $3.95, cheapest in town at Speedway (was Hess at earlier times). $4.15. Coke now at desk, BB1938 in LaughingBacchus meer in smoking room. Needed nap soon, then to sups 75, to 79, mostly clear Ed Duncan, Batavia, NY gots'em, smokes 'em since '62 While there’s them that claim the prices of fuel are on the decline, diesel which was $1.00 a gallon cheaper than gasoline a couple of years ago is now a $1.00 more. Were sitting at $4.81/diesel and $3.54/gasoline... but, a politician will tell you that you’re better off, right! |

I never preached, taught Sunday school from teens to old folks, no matter how much I prepared, I never felt prepared enough. It is either a calling, or it isn’t. I like expository preaching… Godspeed!, I am sure that you will do well. |

Strang Geschnitten, 2016/17 The cut coin version… this was about when I was buying the rope and it was very good. That is from towards the end of original Strang. The re-release happened about 2 years ago. Check out Jim’s review on TR. He added an update with a review of the re-release. One review entry with old followed by new. |
