Our 42nd was last Wednesday...

I will shamelessly promote my own. I have readers and post the daily readings for Morning/Evening Prayer, Noonday prayer and Compline. I also listen to the Moth Radio Hour when driving sometimes.

When I want to smell better, I just smoke a cigar.

Kidney stones are a tough one. I have no personal experience (I am happy to report), but I have run by the hospital to pray with folks. Hope all has passed...

This is a picture from 2018 of a pipe I smoke at least once a day. An issue (with me and rimcake anyway) is that I smack ashes out of my pipe on he heel of my shoe and every now and then hunks come off in this process. It builds back up though...

I will observe that a pot shape with a 3/4 in inside diameter on the bowl is just a short billiard. I would look for a pipe with a 7/8 in id to get the experience.

Too heavy a hand on the buffer can do this too.

I am saddened by this news.

I listen to it on the commute and sometimes stream it in the home office.

I will say a rosary with intentions for your bank account.

Seconding @Ranger107 's suggestion... I would try Old Joe Krantz (the original). I am smoking Big & Burley as I type this - another recommendation.

I am a fan of Granger. It was my paternal grandfather's goto.

Puts my flight suit back in the closet for the time being...

I am game. I always enjoyed them and never missed one once I started as a bomber in September of 2013 (pretty sure that was when it all started for me)...

I am happy to read this news!

I go through a lot of hot sauce. It is almost all Texas Pete or Franks.

I have never washed them in the sink/whatever. An estate gets a serious internal scrubbing with a bristle pipe cleaners and PGA, and stem gets a good external wipedown with the same stuff. I am not very OCD about cleaning between smokes and for sure have never resorted to water.

I have a Keurig thing at the office and have tried a few different types. Green Mountain Dark Magic is good. Bustelo is good. Starbucks Sumatra is great, and I am on my third box of it. My taste "might" be a little suspect though, because I only drink perk coffee at home. I have had Presto pots...

I have the alarm set for 4:00 on Sundays. It is set for 4:30 the rest of the time. I have an internal clock that typically has me awake and checking time about 10 minutes before the alarm goes off, and I will just get up then. This morning one of my dogs had to go for a pee at 3:45. Once my feet...

I live in Williamsburg, VA these days. It is a nice area. I am a fan of Old City BBQ in Williamsburg - their smoked brisket is quite good. In the Virginia Beach area, we have had good seafood there, but the names of the places were not "sticky."
