Guesses as to who isn't needed.

Have I shown this pipe yet? It's a Peterson Donegal Rocky B33 bent Dublin sitter. Smokes well and sits well with a nice large chamber.

These are Barling meerschaums, which I believe have been boiled in oil so they'd be more durable. I still have the larger of the two.

Thanks Maggie, we think so too!

Puffing some Low Country Nat. VA. and Oriental in a Rossi Lucca 8320 EX. Sometimes bigger is better. Puffy

It was another morning of having Fred run, bounce and pounce on me to get me to play with him. It didn't work till I was ready.

Puffy

I bought three tobaccos to try. First is Sutliff Revelation Match. I like it pretty well. " Revelation Match from Sutliff, blends a light latakia element with Burley, Kentucky, Virginia, and Perique for complex flavor with a plum casing for accent." Smokingpipes.com Second is Capt. Black Grape, and grape it is. If the old dog farts, this will cover it up. In the bag I could detect the grassiness of the VA. and spiciness. Smoking it is sweet, spicy and hints of liquorice and nutty flavor. Different and delightful, to ME anyhow. Puffy

It's cold and breezy out, which sux a lot! Puffing Crooner in a MM Mark Twain bent. Fred kitten is snoozing in a box under the computer desk. I took a small box and cut some of one side and put it over my CPAP machine. Now Fred won't turn it off in the middle of my sleep period.
