"An unpopular opinion concerning politics or religion lies concealed in the breast of every man; in many cases not only one sample, but several. The more intelligent the man, the larger the freightage of this kind of opinions he carries, and keeps to himself." --Mark Twain
This blog is about my hobby of collecting and smoking pipes. I do not collect the very finest and most expensive pipes. I do not have a large income and I collect the pipes that I can afford. Such is one of the beauties of pipe smoking: there's room for everyone, if you can find your niche.
I have three other blogs: Blogonomicon, wherein I focus on my other interests of books and music and blog on various other topics that interest, amuse, and outrage me; The Last Ancient House, which is a collection of fiction and poetry inspired by H.P. Lovecraft; and The Hunter Chronicles: The Diary of a Vampire Hunter, another fiction project which is still largely a work in progress.
The Cellar
You can view my infrequently updated stash of pipe tobacco at my online tobacco cellar.
In this selection from a vintage ad (from 1935) found at The Gallery of the Absurd, there is--or may be--a lesson to be learned. Who is the only one not making fun of his co-worker's stubble? Why, the one with the pipe, of course!
LOL! Lesson well learned! Great stuff!

ReplyDeleteI'm doing fine, just not much motivation. Getting a few new posts lined up, though.
