Saw this at the grocery store. Have you ever had this? Did they name it after you?

I've read the archives, the Mayor seems to be a swell guy without a swell head. It's always nice to read his posts, unless he's swooning about redheads, which, it seems, he'll do at the drop of a hat.
I do have a question, though. What color is a white horse that has run through the mud?

My father did not. He reamed with a pocket knife and kept cake trimmed back pretty thin. I remember a priest who would use a key to break to get between the bowl and the cake to to break it off in chunks.

I don't think I'd be able to resist smoking that at least once in its current state(after cleaning out the shank), just to experience that much "history" in a smoke.

If it was someone like [mention]Fr_Tom[/mention] who owned it, I'd say about a month or so.Jlando19 wrote: ↑Tue Oct 13, 2020 1:35 pmI keep coming back to look at it in amazement.
