Good morning,

From your posts it sounds like a break is in order. You have to maintain the vintage bodys just like anything else that has experience. Or it breaks down.
When I used to fight my trainer told me me this. If you can take a knee always take it. An 8 count lasts until 8 take the whole 8. You sound like you really need to take a knee.

erfect straight grain vulcano with vulcanite stem. The plateau briar was large affording a tamper to be turned and stand from cut offs. Going to smoke a bowl of Esoterica Dunbar recently acquired in a trade with Happy Warrior.
 
Enjoyed a medium size bowl of Apple Jacks, followed by a Jethro Bodine size bowl of freshly made chili topped with Mexican cheese, two slices of chocolate silk pie, some pecans and a big, tasty golden delicious apple lunch. I could eat more, too. Half way through this bowl of year 2020 Watch City Rouxgaroux in a smooth medium bend 2021 Peterson POTY Natural 4AB No. 6/500 military mount with a silver cap and a tapered black vulcanite AB stem. Gold Star Peruvian Macchu Picchu, neat, is my drink.

Relaxing after a wonderful sourdough meatball pizza with a bowl of butter pecan ice cream for dessert. I'm smoking Jim's red Va/Bur blend in a 1980s White Pipe straight lattice apple meerschaum with an acrylic yellow cream colored saddle stem. I'll see how well I did with this mix.

Enjoyed a bowl of m'lady's chili topped with Mexican cheese and we split an apple fritter. I'm near the half way mark of this bowl of year 2020 D&R VIP in a 2004 smooth long shank Trever Talbot Ligne Bretagne Faite en Bretagne 4/3 lumberman with a tapered black vulcanite stem. Ice water and bergs is my drink.

Good morning,
Smoking my Pete pub pipe with MB 7 seas regular blend,mug of DD coffee.Our Golden retriever puppies have gotten very big, they have been trying to show their muscle by ganging up on our Newfy-She has been showing them who is boss! Our newfy is a very mellow dog and would not hurt the pups,but she obviously is going to defend herself from the foolishness.
 
Had my morning pipe already, BRO in the Cobbler. I've started a bowl of Haunted Bookshop in my Brigham Prince and I'm having more coffee. Gloomy grey days here for a while now, it's getting tedious. Senseless above freezing weather, too. A ski trail may be out of the plans for this year, no base yet and only three months to go.

The ''Hygienists'' in Winter - Part 1
Dear friends, as i have told you before, in Greece the Café have an outdoor area (for smokers) and an indoor area (for non-smokers and children) that are separated by a glass door. When a ''hygienist'' enters, he passes from the outdoor area to the indoor area without daring to speak to those sitting outside, but when there are 2-3 of them, then those smart@sses they get bold and start loudly saying smart things to provoke those of us who are outside and smoking.

"Do you want to sit outside? Haha, are you nuts? Are you crazy? It's cold, yes but as you see others are sitting there, haha, and why do you want us to get wet too? Haha, let's go inside where it's nice and warm, for sure inside, haha"

Yes, you m*f*s, it's colder outside but the owner has installed gas stoves and we don't get wet because there is an awning or roof over us, not a single drop gets inside, we are always dry. Inside, it's darker and the owner turns on small halogen spotlights that emit a yellowish light and blinds you, there is music but because the place is closed it's loud and bothers you, there are 2 TVs but without sound and so you watch football or basketball but you don't hear anything, when someone beside you speaks to his cellphone it bothers you a lot because the place is enclosed. You have no view outside, you stupids sit like miserables watching us smoking freely ''in peace".
After a while, the "hygienists" feel uncomfortable and leave (while we are happily outside and sitting far above) with sour faces and a bad mood, no laughter or irony comments just silence, their heads are down and they look around with evil and jealous eyes to us which are happy while having fun with friends.
We won and you scumbags lost, AGAIN.
