2012 Leo in my Eltang bamboo shank Billiard. 🎂🎉  How many Eltangs you got, John? 6 Eltangs, 4 Sara Eltangs, and 1 Copenhagen Collection by Eltang. Plus, three Stanwells whose shape was designed by Tom. Also, a signed copy of the book "It’s Good to be a Pipemaker" (bio of Tom). If you can’t tell, he’s my favorite pipemaker. 😀 |

Have you compared that to the SJ? I haven't. Just curious. No, I've only tried the AB. Pulled out a jar because it came up during a chat session a few nights ago. Still don't care for it. Then you probably don't want to try the SJ, then? It's not a favorite, but sometimes it's what I'm in the mood for. I'm probably much too common to appreciate the difference in perique. |

greets & happy HumpDay for those affected. Full walks just done, no-band 6x42 for company. Last day of "decent", big storm to hit us Thursday most likely. After the Ed is fed, Exotique in IL Ceppo, hangs like an Oom-Paul, sandblasting as craggy as anythng from Jim Cookes' best, great deal from Pipestud ?yrs ago. Cobs cleaned & on 3-day rest.
35, overcast, might hit 42 eventually

I think you need at least 6 more Tom Eltang's. |

2020 C&D Golden Days of Yore in a 2020 Savinelli Bing's Colorate with limited edition green/white swirl acrylic stem while watching the snow fall. The image hosting is down currently, so you just have to imagine the Bing's Favorite with a green acrylic stem.

21 years of age and still VERY rich in nicotine. This tobacco (Gallaher's Rich Dark Honeydew flake) is not even on TobaccoReviews, but the ribbon mixture version is.

Let's have no sectarianism, please. Hey, Acadian Perique has it's place, I mean it's what most of us are smoking, most of the time. Buuuut... St James Perique, though? St James Perique? Is it even a question what's better? I mean, come on, am I right?
I'm smoking GH & Co. Best Brown Flake #2 in a cob, drinking coffee, and awaiting this snowstorm that just keeps getting pushed off while all we see is rain.
I've never tried them head-to-head. And I tend to swim against grain, so I dunno. |

It was a little play on "SJ" -- an abbreviation usually associated with the Jesuits. |

It was a little play on "SJ" -- an abbreviation usually associated with the Jesuits. I got it. Catholic high school--we know about the Society. CD 3F in a MM. Just rain here, possibly changing to something more solid as the sun goes down. |
