G'Sunday ladies & gents, this afternoon I am puffing on some of my favourite Tom mix all sorts in my straight International Falcon with the Dublin Meer bowl watching a cheap Spaghetti Western dreaming of the blues....revenge is for Slaves of the six gun , as the tumbleweed blows to the sound of the silver trumpet in the Autumn fires of the concrete jungle, there is always , Shakespeare's Bacon.,.to be salted & saved for the next episode , now a Classic, "She wore a Yellow Ribbon" , it will be OK at " Tombstone" as the older soldiers say , " you do not hear the bullet that kills you" , time for an i- coffee , folks.
PS. I like John Wayne's pipe as he reads Custer's roll call , is it a MM Country Gentleman maple, I ask myself ?
PPS, I talk to the olde bones of my dog, not olde stones or dust & ashes....when at the wailing wall...in the story of the Yellow Ribbon, that is xXx

3 year aged Sillem's Commodore Flake... one of the greatest smokes alive! For my taste buds, it's somewhat akin to Peterson's Irish Flake, but oh so much more refined, cooler, sweeter, and much more heavenly... age has been most kind to this phenomenal blend!

Finished the evening with a bowl of my own blend. 3 parts Edwards Jamaica Sunset, 3 parts PA and 2 parts Perique. Aged for one year. Pretty nice smoke. I did not like the JS by itself, so blended and cellared it last year.

Cub's fans finally got something to cheer about at Wrigley. It had been a long time coming. The last team to lose two games at home in the World Series was the Baltimore Orioles in 1979. They lost to Pittsburg. Starting off the day with HH Old Dark Fired in my other Peterson 999 9mm Rhodesian with a Savinelli balsa filter, drinking Trader Joe's coffee before sunrise.

And I remain constantly envious of Baboo's cellar  Peter Heinrichs Special Curly in a Goussard stack billiard with faceted shank. Coffee. Busy busy busy. |
