Not just “what are you smoking” (Although that is a big plus.), but what are you doing right now (Um, besides being on the computer. [smiley])?

I’m cleaning my pipe collection and stands while watching “The terminator” (It’s the only thing on.). It just finished raining and is night time, I’m on my garage computer and have the door open, when I opened it I had a kitty stampede and after five minutes of holding the kitchen door to the garage open while the cats walked very slow, stopped, licked there paws ect to show me who‘s boss,  I got my pipe maintenance box out of the closet and have just now finished all of my briers.
I use those fuzzy pipe cleaners used in arts and crafts as they are soft bristle and do a bit of scrubbing while running them through (Plus there only 50 cents for 75 count 12“ cleaners, work good for long stems and cut in half there the same as standard.).
I dip them in spiced rum before I run them through.
Now I’m getting ready to buff my meerschaums, I first buff with a brush (As you would when you polish your shoes.), and then I buff with a soft cloth.
Oh well, back to work.
Have a good night guys.
Bob

On the back porch discovering that matches are just as hard to light in the humidity as a stubborn tobacco is. I'm playing some online poker (getting whooped) and testing my Photoshop skills. It's great. Late at night, no one is out but it's loud as hell with the crickets. Beautiful.

Until I read this, I was recovering from the day while catching up on some missed episodes of "How I Met Your Mother." Your question, however, has sent me on an existential joyride through the definitions of do and be, making me question the nature of my very existence, the relationship between shared experiences, and what we will or won't be doing after we reach our "final destination." Thanks for the headache.

A well defined problem is already half solved.

Sitting in my back porch smoking my pipe and drinking some red wine and checking out all the forums I am on.  Every now and then teasing the dog and just being lazy.

Well let me help you with that headache.
The meaning of life is to have a blast while were here, achieved nearly everyday to a pipe smoker. Besides don’t worry about it, were all one organism that has no end. In other words, If it was natural for us to keep our umbilical cords attached, we’d be one giant organism. [smiley]
Good luck with the headache.

I live in Florida and can relate to humidity and heat. In fact I ran out to the ice-cream truck today and didn’t make it in time:

I'm fighting a losing battle against drowsiness. I've given up caffeine, a decision I'm going to have to consider reversing.

I'm trying to wake up. Coffee & tobacco are proving invaluable in that quest.

Well make sure you don't tease the cat, there not as bright as they think they are:

Cleaning some cobs and thinking about going back to bed.  One of the nice things about being retired.  My wife always tells me that I'll have plenty of time to sleep when I die, so get active.

If you're saving sleep for when you're dead, you might be a little eager for it to come. I say don't save anything for death, including sleep. (Taxes, maybe, but that's a subject for another board.)

Just drinking my first cup of coffee while checking out the weather channel (A must in Florida.), I’m smoking a hand rolled mint cigarette getting ready to switch to a pipe. I finished the bottom shelf last night and get to smoke the big boy shelf next, the top shelf is all of the oddballs, clay, cobs, meerschaums and 2 that are metal lined. I made all but one of the stands for the top shelf myself:

I’ll be  arriving in heaven skidding sideways with my body all worn out and bruised yelling, “yahoo, what a ride“…
