Went to the VA today. After smoking crazy stuff for forty years (some of which from my college days are buried deep and classified), I have the heart rate of a teenager, 61 bpm, and BP was 133/84. VA doc asked me if I still smoke my pipe which is part of my record. I replied in the affirmative and that was the end of the conversation. Great thing about the VA healthcare system is there's no way a disabled veteran will be told they can't fire up a bowl whenever they wish.
Celebrating with 2005 Christmas Cheer in a smooth 3/4 bent Grade P James Upshall egg, drinking Guinness Stout and tracking this week's stock market reports with ESPN radio in the background.

C&D Golden Days of Yore in an Arley Curtz pot. Not nuts about this blend. Sample from a friend. Not one I will order. Kind of plain, a little grassy, slightly bitter and a biter for my tongue.

2010 C&D Burley Flake #4 in my Paronelli olive wood Apple. Olive wood is so pretty. I like it for handgun grips, knife scales and especially pipes. I am still hunting for the right one. That Paronelli is beautiful, John. |
