My wife asked me what I wanted for my birthday, and I had this brainstorm.

I'm having a custom pipe made in the shape of a bear paw (with claws). Midnight blue stummel and orange stem. This will be my "game day" pipe, so I hope to have it before the season ends.

I will post pictures when I get it.

I smoke a pipe very rarely. I simply have a cheap-o pipe with some meh tobacco that I got mostly for the novelty. I'd ideally like to go to a local pipe shop and get a proper pipe and proper rich tobacco. It's a habit I'd like to pick up a bit more later on in my years.

My brother used to have this cherry tobacco that he would smoke in his pipe that really made me want to start smoking. The right cherry scented candle still gives me a craving.
I will kill you if you cut me at the knees. You will drink with me when invited and stay til I say so. We only listen to American Music. I make men nervous with just my presence. I expect an apology if you hold. I throw linemen at QB's. Believe the Lore!

I don't smoke aromatic tobaccos very often, but occasionally get the hankering. Cult Blood Red Moon has a very appealing chocolate covered cherry vibe. I have a Vanilla Cream that's nice, too.

I always intended to when I hit 50, because I figured by then I'd be 'old enough'.

I'm 47 now. I neither look nor feel anywhere bloody near old enough.

Pipe came in the mail today. I'm happy with how it turned out.
