She was the first chick that told her husband, "you were a little rough with the beaver". I'm a fan of old movies, I have to say, Lauren Bacall, really tripped my trigger, via To Have and Have Not. Sassy and sweet.

I'm reminded of this scene from Leave it to Beaver. The Beaver smoking a huge meerschaum pipe. Apparently he's not as accomplished a pipe smoker as his old man

Sorry, I couldn't find the whole bit in one shot so here's part 1

Doc Pat, Covent pipe, Billy Tea and a good book. A nice relaxing way to start the day.

This is my first pipe, a Dr. Grabow Duke... It saw many bowls of Cpt. Black and was always nice to smoke... Probably my best smoking pipe... I put it away for a few years and brought it back out 3 years ago...

So a few weeks ago I was talking to Eric King (Omar King) about a refurbish... He got the new stem in today so I'm thinking I should see the pipe sometime next week... Another Tuxedo and about 5.5" long compaired to 6.5"...

UPDATE:

Final fitting and a polish is all that is needed at this point... I think it looks great...!

So my wife saw a "daily deal" for a Scotch tasting at the Robusto Room for my dad's birthday. Of course, I couldn't let him just go by himself. Being the good son that I am, I went with him to sample some fine, single malt Scotches.

Morning Smoke: Irish Flake in a Flame Grain Meerschaum Kaywoodie. Full no kidding tobacco taste and vitamin N content. I find this tobacco quite similar to a full bodied cigar.

I had some Samuel Gawith Firedance Flake last night. Can't say it did much for me, glad I only had a sample and not a whole tin!
