Yeah they're probably a pain to clean, can't imagine buying one as my daily driver. But they sure look cool.

Nearing the half way mark on this bowl of Watch City Original Crumb Cut in a 1950s-60s straight smooth brown Bertram 07 octagonal paneled billiard with a square shank and a tapered black vulcanite stem. Ice water and bergs is my drink.

Enjoyed a tasty red delicious apple, and am nearing the half way mark on this bowl of Wilke No. 515 Double Shot in a smooth dark medium bend 2021 Peterson Heritage Brown POTY 4AB No. 45/500 military mount with a silver cap and a tapered black vulcanite AB stem. This is No. 515 with twice the rum of the Basil Rathbone blend.
I have one Ser Jacopo which is a favourite - an Insanus Spongia.
I have just ordered my first Mastro Geppetto - will let you both know how I think they compare, but probably like comparing apples and oranges given the Mastro Geppetto is a bent brandy. Guess I can comment on build quality comparison though.

Smoking some SG 1792 Flake in a Charatan Huntsman (top one in the picture).
Good morning,
Starting my day with an Oldenkott bent apple with Russ`s pirates cove and a Martinson k-cup. It`s a chilly 42 degrees here. It`s supposed to be a nice day. I put a lot of effort into the fundraiser that I am doing for some vets and there families.Sadly ,it`s not going well. I have only sold 51 tickets for the dinner. I am wondering if I priced it too high- It`s an Italian dinner buffet style,with unlimited beer,wine and soda adults 25 a person. children under 12 half price. I dont know why it`s not selling!

With that pipe you can have a cup of tobacco to go with a cup of coffee. It would be a set if you found a matching coffee cup!
It you haven't listed some of the buffet items people might be thinking that $25 is too much for pasta!

Good Morning!
I'm enjoying the next to the last bowl in this tin of Westminister in an MM Apple Diplomat, I have a jar of Drucquer Levant in the queue to replace it. The day started out in the mid forties and sunny, I'm hoping the chance of rain never develops.

On a break and now on a Zoom. Amphora original in a MM Pride raw cob. Now, Schwabs Paul's Stuff in a MM Diplomat bent apple. This is a nice English blend that keeps me coming back, and it has been produced by this Lexington tobacconist for 48 years.

Depends on what you're serving. If just spaghetti or pasta yea maybe a bit high. If lasagna or something like chicken Primavera, etc. then its reasonable, especially with unlimited wine and beer. Around here most Italian restaurants get 7 to 9 bucks for a glas of wine. If we have 2 drinks each that's $30+ right there, so $50 for a couple seems quite reasonable. Plus it's for a good cause.

Good morning BoBs. Back to briars with Urban Cowboy in a Pete Pub with morning coffee. A warm 60 already but breezy. My BD today so my riding buddy and his wife are taking us to dinner this afternoon. Baby back ribs at Texas Roadhouse. Mmmm. Lol.
Happy Birthday Buddy, have an awesome day.
Very late to the table today, Nurse Ratchet's fault. Plugging some home blended Gandalf's Staff in a Erik Nording Signature freehand fitted with a Churchwarden stem. I hope everyone has a great day.

Happy Birthday @Ranger107 ! After PT enjoy the day and especially the ribs! ..OK family and friends too!
I prepared one one the raised beds for snow peas and lettuce but before that I blended C&D Bright Virginia with Red Virginia. I just loaded a Pride with my simple creation and it's pretty good!

Half way through this bowl of early 2000s 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.
