"Smoke"


I am seriously considering taking up the pipe,...like my Dad did. I have his pipe btw. He smoked "Captain Black", and "Holiday".

(He was "Chesterfield man" before all this.)

I'm considering the art of Skateboarding as well. This inspired by an article of a gent that began the Boarding adventure at 78!

I also am thinking on visiting London. I'd go to Paris, but I'm told it's filled to the rafters with the French of all things.



Stay Tuned.

  1. You'll live longer if you do. The health benefits of smoking are well known.

    Me, I'm gonna start brewing & drinking sacred herbal healing beers, as per the instructions of a well known herbalist. I'll start with licorice root and then move on to eyebright & other tonics. I love the idea of having a coupla beers every day for my health. I could make tea too, but that would be dull.

    Go to Paris also.

  3. The French won't bite you. Too many people complain that Parisians are unfriendly, but in my experience that's bunkum. In reality they're very cosmopolitan and accustomed to hosting foreigners, much like NYC.

    I've noticed that friends of mine who haven't gone abroad are afraid to do so; they seem to fear experiencing any place truly foreign, as though they couldn't handle it. This is a terrible limitation to impose on yourself. To say nothing else, the Louvre is the greatest art museum in the world, hands down. Do you really want to miss out on the greatest art museum in the world, merely because not everyone speaks English there? Go there! See it! You'll be glad you did.

  4. P.S - many French boys are *very* cute. Charlie ain't the only looker there by any means. Speaking that language tends to give them full, tender lips. There's a softness about them. You'll probably run into whole middle school field trips of them while groking the great art & architecture & strolling down the Champs Élysées. In the elevator up the Eiffel Tower, they'll crowd around you, pressing close - a culturally enriching experience if ever there was one!

  5. Well I could toss Paris onto the list. I could go to Google Language, and pick up a few useful words, and phrases. "Don't shoot I'm Canadian" or 'Where are the pretty Boys Please?" I'm sure any passing "Policier" would be happy to direct me.

    I suppose I should keep the U.S. Embassy helpline for stupid tourists handy.

  6. I wish I could go with you. My high school French ain't no great shakes, but it's enough to get around town on and would smooth communication. Plus you probly need a chaperone to protect your virtue from those irrepressibly lustful Gallic youth.

    Avoid like the plague all contact with US officialdom. Another excellent reason for going there is to get away from all that.

    They're really just satyrs in human form you know. I mean the Gallic youth, not US officials. The latter should be conceived of as fiends like unto the Qlippoth, if not actually allied with them.
