Not Exactly

-

 This year Valentine’s Dat is a Saturday.  It’s not exactly a holiday, but it is a day to break up the winter blah’s.  My wife and I used to go out on Valentine’s Day.  But these days we are more content to stay home.  I’m pretty content to just smoke my pipe by myself and live in Peace.  She still works with our son’s business, but I am content with a quiet life.  

I still take vids of myself smoking my pipe, but I don’t care about numbers.  Between FB and IG I am busy enough.  We have had the trials of life and both of us just want quiet lives.  I try not to let the news of the day bother me no matter what I see or read.  I’m thinking of this blog several days ahead, but I don’t let it become very important to me.  

I’m always right where she expects me to be.  We are never far from each other.  I enjoy watching vids with lo-fi music sometimes not sure if I want to see winter scenes or beach scenes.  Most of the time I choose a scene for the music and not so much the scenery.  I can smoke my pipe on the beach or a cozy coffee shop in winter.  The winter scenes are often cozy.  

Piano music is often lite jazz.  Beach scenes might have more tropical music.  But here is SW Florida I can long for cold wintry days up north where I can feel warm inside and it’s cold outside.  My wife and I both sometimes miss the snow up north.  But it’s nice to see winter scenes in 70 degree weather.  

We have spent the past few summers in NY, but fall is best in NY.  We don’t miss NY winters, however.  I just enjoy relaxing with my pipe and listening to quiet calming music.  I am watching a winter street scene of a small quaint village and listening to lite piano jazz while smoking my Nording Number 2 pipe with some Cornell and Diehl Old College pipe tobacco.  Thank you for your time and Peace and Love to each one of you.

About Good Vs. Evil

-
 My Angels told me Satan wanted to create and God wouldn’t let him, when I asked them if there were physical unions in heaven.  But here on earth creating is good.  God allows us to create all we want, within limits.  But in doing so we do the will of God knowing He is the Giver  of all life.  My Angels didn’t tell me this, but it is my thinking that we have to recognize God is the Giver of ALL life.  This is why every human life is sacred and why only God can take a human life. This is why God will overlook any sin but the taking of Human Life.  This is my theology from my Angels and why it is so important that we control both our hatred and our anger.  This is why there is the taking of human life.  Satan knows this too and why there is evil in this world.  Without righteousness humanity wouldn’t exist. This is why I believe God won’t let the world be destroyed.  There will always be wars and rumors of war, which is why livin...

Bach and a Pipe

-
 Bach was known to drink wine and smoke a pipe.  I did a little research in the area and found he was known to use tobacco in a pipe.  Tobacco came from the New World and before the New world was settled tobacco was traded back and forth.  He had access to tobacco as it took some wealth back then to afford the tobacco.  It was used mostly in the upper classes of Europe and it is said that his cousin supplied him the tobacco. As to whether men of great wealth generally used tobacco is a debate that countries today.  Shakespeare is not known to have smoked tobacco, but it seems he used pot and cocaine, which were found in clay pipes excavated from his property.  But many think it would be scandalous to suggest Shakespeare used tobacco.   When we get to the settling of the New World, pipe smoking was common among men.  The odds are great that great historical figures were pipe smokers, but most of this is conjecture but we simply don’t know. ...

Almost

 Tomorrow ends the 14th year since my hear attack.  I had the widow-maker and only by the grace of God and a good heart surgeon I survived.  I had never experienced such pain in my life!  I knew I wasn’t going to die but my heart was damaged so much it functions at about 50%.   It was a Saturday and we were going to visit my mom.  The timing couldn’t have been better!  We could have been out on the road.  It was about nine O’clock in the morning and I had to pump up a tire on the car.  The funny thing is I had a BP check in October and it was 120/80 with no signs of anything being wrong.   I was about 30 pounds over weight and I simply was not taking very good care of myself.  I was under some duress during that time, but still no sign of it happening.  My wife questioned as to whether it was a heart attack but I told her to call 911.  I had no doubt what was happening.   The squad came and they confirmed it was a hea...
