A Peaceful Day

-

 I spend a lot of time smoking my pipe.  My wife read that die to an eye problem she can’t be around pipe very much.  So I might be smoking my pipe a little less, but that might be good.  I don’t have to be so selective in the pipe tobacco I use since she won’t be smelling much of it.  So might gravitate to more English and less aromatics but I still enjoy both.  

I decided to purchase two eight ounce blends of both Revelation and Yale Mixture, which I am thinking either one might be a substitute for Old Professor if it’s being discontinued.  I need to find another English I like just as much.  I had some Lasvish English, which is an aromatic English that I liked but is not a favorite.  I have some 957 matcha that I like but not as much.  It is not a favorite either.  

I had Revelation before and don’t really remember it.  It was Einsteins tobacco of choice.  But the Yale Mixture I had not had before.  I’m thinking I might like Yale Mixture.  And if I like it enough it may be my favorite.  I’ll have to see on that.   I thought about ordering a bunch of blends in two ounce quantities. But I need more than two ounces of a blend.  

So, one of these two might do what I want in a good English.  I think Captain Black Original or Lane 1-q might be my favorite Aromatics but in a way an aromatic is an aromatic.  English tobaccos are all different.  Nothing but pure tobacco.  I read reviews and try to decide.  It might take a while to find another good English tobacco.  

This morning I am smoking Irish Blessing in my Boswell Pipe.  My coffee this morning is an Ethiopian Organic coffee.  Thank you for your time and Peace to each one of you.

It's About Balance

 I seem to struggle week after week as to how much football I am going to watch.  There for awhile I was watching all the analysis of the collegiate games and decided I was simply paying too much attention to football.  I cut way back last week and as the season begins to unfold I have to ask myself how much is too much?  I didn't watch one pro game last weekend and hadn't followed the analysis of collegiate games all week.   Then I found myself having a kind of withdrawal and decided I can watch whatever football I want to watch as long as it doesn't interfere with my Spirituality.  But at what point is too much too much?  My wife and I talked about this last week as I cut back on watching and we both decided that I like football and I shouldn't have to be thinking about how much or how little I watch.  I enjoy the games.  College more than the pro's.   I don't have to watch the analysis, but I like College Game Day and I like...

 I can never predict how any of my posts are going to be received but I do get a reaction from my wife quite often, but I'll post about my Spirituality thinking I've said enough and apart from a few other subjects my Spirituality posts do quite well.  I had yesterday's tobacco review done a few days ago and saved it for yesterday and again, it seems my tobacco reviews do quite well.  Then I wrote about my age and it seemed no one cared that much   My wife says that it's my titles for my subjects So, while I have so many subjects to choose from, today it is about how my tobacco choices influence my Spirituality or do they?  Not really.  It's just that I can't smoke my pipes without tobacco.  I could be smoking a lot of things.  Like the question asked when someone thinks you are crazy, " What have I been smoking?"  Well, at least you know.  It's never any "funny" stuff.  You could be asking what I've been drinking.  I have ...

Old Ads

-
 My wife liked my post about old things we remember.  And a lot of what I remembered was good.  But there was some bad things back then that are different today.  Back in the 50's and 60's and even into the 70's advertising in both magazines and TV were incredibly sexist.  I don't have the space in one post to list all the ads, but really they can be summed by saying that a lot of advertising was incredibly sexist. I 've mentioned my wife lit my pipe for me just a few times, but these days she can barely tolerate the aroma of my most flavorful Aromatic tobacco.  She liked everything I said in that post except my mentioning Old Professor pipe tobacco.  Ironically, I like Old Professor the most and she hates it the most.  So, when I mentioned it, she did too.  But back in the day a man smoking a pipe was his lifestyle.  Today, it's a hobby, and not just for men. But too back in the day, no woman could walk down the street without some perv...
