****************************
morning greets Craig & all from clear, 46 Western NY. Juice/meds at this desk, DGT '05 CrownAchievement in Brebbia Jubilee 1997 blast calabash waiting in smoking room. Small bowl, silver ring with all the info, a comfortable "clencher", purchased estate from "thePiperack" quite awhile ago. The rim of mine was darker than what shows here. NOT because of "rim darkening" from smoking, was told by the folks at thePiperack that this one was just made with a rin "stain".

Good morning Craig, Ed.....

Dunhill Light Flake in a Pete 80s, coffee in the mug.

I like that pipe Ed, it looks very "comfortable" !

Good Morning Craig, Ed, Paul, and ASP!
Happy TGIF! Here in coastal Ct. it's 59 with a mixture of sun and
clouds as I settle in with a bowl of PSLTF, courtesy of Mr. McKay here
on the forum, and it's a nice smoke so far. I have not smoked a lot of
PS blends, having not been impressed in my early days of pipe smoking,
and there is evidently some good tobacco in the line at a really nice
price point, too. My experience with the PSLBF was a very good one
(again, courtesy of Mark), and I think that I like it enough to cellar
some for the future.
My canine son and I got our walk in earlier, accompanied by a bowl
of EMP in a very early JT Cooke half bent ball with his early
"blastication" finish. It's a bit heavy for it's size, but it smokes
well and is not a pipe I would cry over should I scuff it up by a
random (apologies, Random) drop. This was the Orlick EMP, and I find
that though it's not Murray, I do enjoy it once in awhile.
Later it's a return to the Aromatic Adventure with VooDoo Queen
(shudder!) from Altadis. I'll post my impressions just to keep the
boards active...and to keep me accountable!
Smooth sailin' all...

59 and cloudy her in Salt Lake, thunder showers predicted. Hmmm, may have to ride early if I'm
gonna ride at all.
While thinking about that, a bowl of C&D remnants in the Brebbea bent designer series, dark
roast on the side. Paper read, planning on finishing a book that nearly had me beat, but I
think I've got the advantage now.
Hope everyone has a great weekend planned. Or will be surprised by one!

Good morning,

It's just another hot and humid day down here with monsoons predicted
for the weekend. Pretty typical.

MacB Burley in a Ferro bent pot, coffee on the side.

Y'all have a good one,
Ken in Miami

Randy if'n ya donts return, which is highly and very lowly likely we
will understand why ... Altadis VooDoo Queen is ... is ... well its a
nasty nasty DooVoo blend that chance are will semi-permanently impair
you from being a cognatively human being for quite along time till
shortly after death.

Hope you enjoy it ... I would only give that blend to my worst enemies
and a few close and distant friends to smoke knowing what it just
might possibly maybe will do to them.

Gorgeous pipe, Ed. I'm enjoying some C&D Old Hollywood with a Lagavulin 16-year scotch on the side. Just acquired a Brebbia Calabash and am breaking it in. Looks like this: http://cigarsandpipes.com/media/catalog/product/cache/1/image/9df78eab33525d08d6e5fb8d27136e95/b/r/brebbia-15.jpg

Don't know what you'd call the finish. Carved?
