I’m guessing that’s a reference to the Purdue Boilermakers, who are now in the men’s Final Four.
Ohhhh Basketball 🏀.
I was still no wiser Prof, so I had to Google it 🤣🤣🤣🤣.
But thanks Buddy. I can now sit back, content in the knowledge i know everything there is to know 🤣🤣🤣🤣
 
Going to load up some St. Bruno in a Savinelli Rock Grain before dinner. Which tonight will be Lancashire Hotpot, a particular favourite. Its been a bit hit and miss with the weather in old blighty today. But so far, fingers crossed, the predicted rain hasn't materialised.

About a third of a bowl left of pre-2014 Edward G. Robinson's Pipe Blend in a 2014 Basil Meadows smooth slight bend squashed tomato with an aluminum band and a black pearl acrylic stem in the military mount style. Just fed Sleepy Suzy and four ferals. I'll check on Sam the Scamp after everybody else has eaten. Watching Mad Dog Russo. Ice water and bergs is my drink.

Close to finishing this bowl of year 2016 Peter Stokkebye Luxury Navy Flake in a straight smooth brown post-1964 Parker Super Bruyere 88/F group 3 bulldog with a tapered black vulcanite stem. Lunch follows this smoke. Watching the Mets-Tigers game.

Enjoyed a tall stack of cinnamon raisin French toast with a golden delicious apple on the side. I'm not far from finishing 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. Coffee from a freshly opened bag of Gold Star Jamaican estate reserve, neat, is my drink.

Well, my Watch City Rouxgaroux has arrived and I’ve gone outside to try it in my Barling Sovereign bent acorn with saddle stem. I may end up devoting this pipe to this and other Va/Pers I smoke. The first puffs have been enjoyable, but I will need to smoke thoughtfully to get to know and fully appreciate the flavors. One flavor I could detect from the pouch is a pleasant tart/acidic scent. As I smoke I can taste that, but it does not dominate.

Near the half way mark of this bowl of year 2022 unreleased Sutliff Brown Virginia Flake in a straight smooth brown post-WWII Comoy’s Grand Slam billiard 27 Canadian patent 341422 with a black vulcanite saddle stem. Finishing up my review of the SPC Plum Pudding cigar.

More puttering around today, had Old Professor in my MMBB after lunch. Made some fresh coffee and I'm having it with Byzantium in my Old German Clay, this is a great pipe, I had doubts about how evenly it would smoke with an oval bowl but it is no slouch. BBL
