What is a vernon tenon, Jim?

George Dibos explained it this way: It's a way to connect a stem and bowl with a metal spring widget. Dunhill messed with the idea for a couple years, then abandoned it.

Thanks, Jim.

Boswell Titus in a Peterson XL02.

Half way through this bowl of aged Rattrays Hal O’ The Wynd in a straight smooth brown pre-WWII (Comoy’s) Corinthian De-Luxe 126 pot made for Sutliff in San Francisco with a black tapered vulcanite stem.

Passing the quarter mark of this bowl of KBV Dread Planet 2023 in a straight smooth brown 1920s (Comoy’s) Lions Head 123 pot with a black tapered vulcanite stem.

Near the half way mark of this bowl of year 2014 Edgeworth Ready Rubbed Match in a 2002 smooth top, black sandblasted quarter bend military mount Karl Erik Ekstravagant horn with a horn insert in the ferrule and black acrylic stem. Fed all the cats except for the still missing Abner the Eager.

Enjoyed a tasty golden delicious apple, and have passed the quarter mark of this bowl of Wilke No. 515 Double Shot in a smooth dark medium bend 2021 Peterson Heritage Brown POTY 4AB No. 45/500 military mount with a silver cap and a tapered black vulcanite AB stem. This is No. 515 with twice the rum of the Basil Rathbone blend. I may end the day with this smoke. Reading baseball box scores.

Last smoke of the day is year 2020 Angler's Dream in a 2018 natural smooth medium bend Peterson 03 apple silver spigot military mount with a tapered black acrylic fish tail stem. Just fed cats again, finished reading the box scores, and am reading while this bowl lasts.

Hmm, my post somehow disappeared, lol. Got up early, hD a bowl of CS Choctaw in a Sav Hercules 606EX with morning coffee but couldn't post as the site was down.

Thought about having a 2nd bowl on the patio but unfortunately my asbestos suit is at the cleaners, lol.

Quick lunch of kippered herring and crackers. Prepping to mow, so a bowl of Bluff Blend in an MM Pride raw cob with forever stem.

Was pretty sure I posted this morning but the site's been up and down. Nothing earth shattering: Breakfast of Champions, Oriental Silk in my Bones Dublin with lawn care and a beer, and the washer puked. Replace not repair, it's the pump and it's about 20 years old. Guy won't even come out to look at it.

Enjoyed a tasty lunch, and am smoking and reviewing C&D Eight State Burley (Small Batch 2024) in a 2003 medium bent Ural meer with a lined and etched egg shaped bowl with a silver band and a pearl brown acrylic saddle stem. This goes on sale July 10 at 6 p.m. EST. Watching the Braves-Phillies game as I review.

Couldn't post earlier, but as per my custom, my lead off smoke of the day was pre-2014 Edward G. Robinson's Pipe Blend in a 2014 Basil Meadows smooth slight bend squashed tomato with an aluminum band and a black pearl acrylic stem in the military mount style. Big thunderstorms have canceled walking today. Fed my cats, but the ferals are hiding from the storm.

Good Day!
My morning was the usual including Westminster. I took a Rob Roy filled with GLP Charring Cross along to get groceries and finished it watching IndyNXT. Now it's IndyCar with Moscato wine and GLP Westminster in a Rob Roy. Pipe cleaning is in the queue.

Now smoking and reviewing C&D Eight State Burley (Small Batch 2024) in a medium bend fumed tan crackled year 2020 Ahmet Govem reverse calabash meerschaum with a military mount silver band and black acrylic stem. I notice it's a little stronger this time. The ferals showed up, and we fed them. It's still raining.

Waiting for the NASCAR Chicago race to start with MB HH Pure Virginia in an MM Iconic Legend along with a glass of Moscato wine.

H&H in my Pete Baker Street while tossing a few flies...

Just finished smoking year 2012 Esoterica Dunbar in a smooth straight, dark brown early 1960s Lane era Charatan Selected 43 Dublin with a black vulcanite double comfort saddle stem. This pipe was formerly owned by actor William Conrad. Been watching the Dodgers-Brewers game. Mookie Betts has been in the booth with the regular announcers. This is the first time that I have heard an extended conversation with him, and I like what I have heard. Ice water and bergs is my drink.

Now smoking Ken Byron Ventures Mr. Christian’s Brown Flek 2021 in a 1984 smooth brown full bend Peterson Mark Twain military mount egg with a silver cap and tapered black vulcanite p-lip stem.


Tuesday will be one week since Sam was spayed. She'll go back outside then. We had hoped to find a home for her, but no luck came our way.
