What Are You Smoking September 2018

[Fr_Tom]

Virginia Scraps . . . Newly Modified MM Mark Twain . . . Diet Soda.

Spent only about 2 hours at the Kansas City Pipe Show. Picked out a few new cobs, a nice long pipe finished by Heath Piersel (Scotties Husband) and a pipe I had commissioned several years ago that I did not think would ever be finished. Not even close to the specs I had provided but I smiled and paid for it nonetheless (that's my rule . . . I commission it . . . I buy it whether I like it or not).

I hope you have posted some pictures in the new pipes thread.

ODF-RR in a GBD pot

GL Pease Cumberland, bowl after bowl in the Morgan Cob nosewarmer, all day long cutting wood.

I did not give this blend the intellectual attention it needs.

I honestly could not tell you what I tasted throughout the day, but it was varied and was damn good.

Cumberland is very good. I had exactly one tin, but I enjoyed it a lot.

Bit embarrassed to keep posting pics of the same pipe and the same tobacco, but I guess since it's what I'm smoking...
A bowl of my Old Standby, Low Country VaBur/BLWB, in this no-name Algerian briar billiard. Coming to the bottom of the pouch, so I may refill this time with something else. Perhaps Lane Ready Rubbed. Or SWR. Yeah...I know...really adventurous.
Happy Saturday, all!

The "same pipe and the same tobacco" thing is very underrated. There are a few of us who know that there is no point in messing with success.

I suppose you're right, Padre. Of course, I'm the kinda guy who orders the same meal when I visit the same restaurant...time after time. If it's good, and I like it, why change it up? Gone are the days of my youth when I wanted to try something different all the time.

My wife's been eating roast pork lo mein going of 10 years. Doesn't matter which Chinese restaurant.Lol...

I follow the same rule of whether I like it or not. There are times where I almost bite through my tongue to keep my trap shut.
