That's absolutely nothing, Matthew! Try the Dark Continent: Seven days shipping from the USA and then Customs sits on it for a month!!  You know, I always wanted to visit Down Under. Not now though, Great people, rotten laws.Here in the OK state the government is facing a 500 to 700 million dollar shortfall next year. They tried to pass another tobacco tax,called it a smoking cessation bill when it got draged into court. Judge saw thru the "verbal mumbo jumbo" and trashed it.Now they are looking at cuts and other means or revenue rising.I'm thinking,they need to have a bake sale. I'm setting fire to a bowl of LL Dark Red and trying to have "Happy Thoughts".  You misread "Dark Continent", Mathew I live in Africa, halving my time between South Africa and Namibia. My brother, however lives Down Under and tells me the only place in Australia I'll be allowed to smoke would be in his backyard and then ONLY if his neighbour doesn't complain And he wonders why I haven't visited yet.... Damn silly laws in Oz. |

56F and raining before daybreak. Temperatures dropping all day into the 20s tonight. We'll be in the teens later in the week. 'Tis the season. Starting out with MClelland #2015 in a 2013 1/2 bent Boswell black and tan billiard, drinking hot black coffee and listening to ESPN radio. I drew jury duty in February yesterday. Heading to the courthouse to give them my contact information this morning.

Tinder Box's Bloomsbury in a Radice smooth Dublin sipped alongside a comforting cup of joe. Great evening all Never saw that blend at a Tinderbox. What's it like? Exactly like Nightcap bulk. I'm all but positive that's what it is, just renamed at the Columbus Tinder Box Good morning gents and Lady, started the day with #79 in a smooth Savinelli Hercules 606EX, and naturally cup after cup of Columbian neat. |

Really love that pipe! Matches my metal head appearance perfectly. Is it this Todd Bannard at bstpipes.com? If I recall correctly, I believe Tsal once owned (maybe still does) this pipe's bigger brother. I have a bent stack by Todd. That's a sweet billiard though! Enjoy. |

Busy morning...walk the pup, walk myself, cut the lawn, and some shopping.
Lunch now completed, sitting on the patio enjoying some Lane 1Q in a 1980 Benton Bridge Free hand.
Enjoy it out Tuesday, folks, and enjoy your pipes.

Boring, I know one club officer thats getting a lump of coal at the christmas party. If that lump of coal is big enough, it would be worth some money.... Seriously though... as usual, I will be putting an interesting tin in the white elephant gift exchange. It's always interesting to observe the dynamics of pick a wrapped gift or take from someone else. Many people hesitate to take, but a good tin can create some fun. Last year, I came home with a death metal skull in a snow globe. |

Starting off my smoking day with 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. A bottle of Sprite is my drink. Going through the awesome trade samples I just received.

You know, I always wanted to visit Down Under. Not now though, Great people, rotten laws.Here in the OK state the government is facing a 500 to 700 million dollar shortfall next year. They tried to pass another tobacco tax,called it a smoking cessation bill when it got draged into court. Judge saw thru the "verbal mumbo jumbo" and trashed it.Now they are looking at cuts and other means or revenue rising.I'm thinking,they need to have a bake sale. I'm setting fire to a bowl of LL Dark Red and trying to have "Happy Thoughts". I guess that means you'll be the next state to go legal with cannabis. Just had about half a bowl of SG Sam's Flake in the same late 60's Kaywoodie Super Grain 09B pear as last night. Earlier this morning has some Smoker's Pride Rich Taste in a Mark Twain cob. Cutting up some Murray's Yachtsman Navy Plug. Last year,they had gotten the signatures for a state question to legalize medical uses.The state AG wrote the actual proposal for the ballot.He worded it in a way to legalize all uses.So it never got on the ballot.Now after court fights and name calling it will be on the next ballot.But,we have found that the state government doesn't care about a vote of the people.We had 2 state questions to revamp the penalties for some drug charges. They decided we didn't know what we were voting on and have so far ignored what the "people" voted for. You know, I always wanted to visit Down Under.

Damn silly laws in Oz. Sorry about the confusion there.However,should I find myself in the "Dark Continent",I want to visit Morrocco. Having found myself with an unplanned day off,I have started with finishing a bowl of LL Dark Red from last night.Considering something new this afternoon,I'll get back with you. |
