Half way through this bowl of Comoy’s #1 Double English in a black pebble finish straight 2003 Cavicchi C. Fatto A Mano lovat with a black acrylic stem. I am in awe if your concise high art of pipe & tobacco "Haiku" , Sir, how many bowls have you Puffed may I ask? I haven't the slightest idea. I've never counted the number of bowls I smoke a day. I know June 20 will make 42 years I have been a pipe smoker, and I only know how many blends I've smoked because I've been reviewing them. Otherwise, I couldn't even tell you that. |

Half way through this bowl of Heine's Blend in the third pipe I ever bought ($1.95), a 1974 smooth straight French briar Hadley Apple with a black vulcanite stem. Simply Apple is my drink. Watching Gunsmoke.
Baboo's early to rise, because it makes an egg fryer healthy, wealthy, and more wise when he smokes Strang, the best durn tobacco made today!
