Did somebody mention Five Brothers??? Yes. Groucho, Chico, Harpo, Zeppo, and Gummo. Here's the Fifth Marx Brother: Allan Jones, who took over for Zeppo. Signature is to my grandfather who used to cut his hair. Note the pipe  |

Part way through this bowl of Edgeworth Ready Rubbed Match in a 2002 smooth top, black sandblasted quarter bend Karl Erik Ekstravagant horn with a horn insert in the ferrule and black acrylic stem. Watching Perry Mason.
Love the photo, David.

First of the day is emp in the pipe of the morning. Remembering the excitement of last nights hunt so that this morninf isnt quite so painful. Coffee neat in the wifes mug because she just loves messing with me. I had a great time in the woods last night, I was trapped in my treestand for nearly an hour after dark waiting for one of the mature bucks in the area to clear out. During the wind down to sunset there were deer pretty much constantly in front of me and they didnt even know anything was off. That means this morning should be even better since the comedy of errors that was yesterday morning is resolved.

my friend brought 2 cigars for each of us. first one was somethingoranother seasoned with Makers Mark. it came in a glass tube and had a wax sealed top. the draw was hard and the flavor was okay. the second, and my last smoke of the night, was a Kentucky Fire Cured Muwat. we discussed politics and religion.
first smoke of the day is Flake Scraps in a MM Legend.

Captain Black- Grape in my Dunhill Golden Dragon Shell Briar with Diamond Eyes. Just had pizza and I am finishing an orange soda, so this blend seemed to fit the bill. The top note has waned considerably since buying this a couple months back and it has been lying on a shelf. Unfortunately it has yet to demonstrate the ability to smoke itself, so I still take the odd stab at it from time to time. Honestly, this blend isn't worth the cob it has ghosted. I had to close my eyes to hit the thumbs up button
CB Grape is the one Captain Black blend I WON'T smoke. Nothing is appealing to me about a grape tobacco. Yes, once I jarred Captain Bob's Blend I did detect a hint of grape, but that never comes out in the smoking so it's still on my list of repeatables.

Starting the day with Newminster Superior Navy Flake with a little of McClelland's Dark Navy Flake mixed in. A Comoy Golden Matt Canadian. A mug of the black stuff. Waiting on the Sun. Cold enough to build a fire in the woodstove this morning.
