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 stuff, being outdoors, music, industrial grade java, friends, seasons, seasonings, and trout streams. Currently puffing on Solani Aged Burley Flake from '09 in a 55, recalling my time here as an active member. Lots of good memories... oh yeah and some really great box pass memories. Got a side of joe working, Miles Davis holding it down on the tube amp. I look forward to jumping back in here at BoB. To quote an old member here who hailed from South Africa: Brothers of Briar, you are hereby saluted!
