The pretentious pipe

From jimbenton.com.

Many years ago I mentioned to someone that I preferred bent pipes to straight, and was told that bents are too pretentious for a young man.  "Well, I guess I'm pretentious, then" was my answer.  Now I guess I'm too old for that to be an issue, anyway.

It's a very good pipe!

Happy New Year!

Although I don't do much to observe this time that was arbitrarily appointed as the beginning of the year (in some cultures--personally I think the year should end/begin with the Winter Solstice), I hope the coming year brings you much pipe-smoking pleasure.

Great Cthulhu takes a break from driving artists and poets insane. I don't know how he manages to light a pipe under the ocean, but I suppose if he can get his fireplace to burn, then the pipe isn't much more difficult.

I don't know what this is about

Just something I came across. If anyone knows anything about this, let me know. Otherwise, feel free to caption it.

I've gone green

Heh.

Got in some straight Perique for blending experiments today. I'm currently smoking a hybrid mixture that's roughly 60% Bayou Night and 40% Perique. I call it "Marie Laveau."

Another good reason to smoke a pipe...

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!

Pipes only, please
