Re: What are you smoking February 2019

Just got back from Washington D.C. Flight from DCA was delayed 12 hours. First pipe back is War Horse Bar, in a Patriot. Brought no pipes with me, only a 4 pack of William Penn Braves Cigars. Totally nasty, considered buying Marlboros for 4$ in Virginia, but sucked it up till i got back.

There are people that will chase unicorns, and the...

Its literally a...
