    Cool and overcast this morning. Perfect morning for Skiff Mixture in a sweet little sandblasted straight apple with a brindled stem, cuppa sludge on the side. I have absolutely nothing planned, nothing scheduled. I am giddy with delight. I foresee a number of the briar herd getting saddled up...

    Good morning, fellow BOBers. Cool and overcast is the billing for today. We got Mr Johnny Coltrane calmly laying it down so it's all good there. Starting the day off with a bowl of Skiff Mixture in an Ashton XXX pebble grain 3/4 bent billiard. I could be freaking the flip out on multiple fronts...

    Morning fellas. The day is cool and overcast. Currently rocking a bowl of 2014 Three Friars in a big ol' pick axe. Putting together a shopping list as the morning unfurls. My daughter is a freshman in high school - today is the last day of the school year. She requested her favorite meal for...

    Hello Mr. G Marius - top o' the morning. Your question regarding how long to leave a tobacco pipe loaded... there is a whole school of thought about this. Virginia based tobaccos tend to do well if not better when on the drier side. Some pipers have embraced a "technique" called DGT - Delayed...

    Morning fellas. Well aged C&D Three Friars in a Stanwell 1/4 bent dublin. I could and maybe should be all wound up here on a Monday morning with all that lies ahead... but I'm not. Got 'er set on positive vibrations/cruise control this morning. Let the day come as it may. Cheers to your day, gents.

    Late afternoon cup of coffee with a bowl of Carter Hall in a cob. Pretty much a home run.

    Whaddup good people. Cuppa mud - industrial grade. Chill jazz meanders through slanting rays of sun on a bluebird morning. Birdsong and carefree ramble are in the air. As is the savory smoke from a rusticated half bent M. Tinsky dublin/cauldron soliloquy in briar. GLP Sextant is today's offering...

    Working through a right tasty bowl of well aged Scottish Cake in a dandy little 3/4 bent blasted dublin. Birdsong and jazz are in the air. The local flora is virtually bursting with greenery. Spring in the far north is really something. Here's to the day, gents.

    The day is starting most auspiciously with a fine first tasting of this Mac Baren Burley London Blend in a Tinsky featherweight blasted straight billy. I haven't slapped a knee yet but it's close. Really really excellent. Dark cocoa with just the right hint of a roasty toasty pecan sweetness...

    Greetings from Anchorage

    Howdy friend! Favorite Miles album? Shoot dang that's tough... Sketches of Spain? On the Corner? Birth of the Cool? I kind of like it all - even ******* Brew if I'm in the right head space. I really can't say. On a slow and low rainy Sunday like yesterday I can really dig Birth of the Cool...

    Greetings from Anchorage

    Howdy gents, Trout Bum here. It's been a minute or ten but I used to post here quite bit back in the day. (Like 10 years or more ago...) Some of you may recall me if you're still hanging around these parts. At any rate, I like tobacco pipes, chewing tobacco, words, dirt, cooking stuff, eating...

    What are you smoking?

    Smoking the Frog in an Ashton billiard. With a side of wicked good coffee. A superb pairing, I might add.

    WOW! Crazy cool; I found people from well over a mile out! Kinda scary, almost. Makes you wonder what kind of technologies exist that we the "bewildered herd" either do not know about or will simply never know about. Where's my tinfoil hat?!
