In this episode I smoke a limited edition Peterson, show you a couple of Mark Irwin’s excellent books and read you another bit of Tolkien
If you wish to encourage me with coffee and cakes you can do so here:

(it's possible the cakes will turn magically into pipe tobacco and the coffee may sometimes transform into a dram of something special)

Right now, this world is harsh and scary, but this little corner of the internet, with its scent of pipe tobacco and shelves bulging with fine books, is a welcoming oasis of kindness and warmth. Thank you, Malcolm, thank you from the bottom of my heart.

@anamcaralaura 2 месяца назад

I haven't smelled a pipe in ages! My great-grandfather smoked a pipe and I vividly recall the wonderful smell and sound of him puffing at the pipe when I was a little girl. I would sit at his feet and watch with interest. An old coal miner from Wyoming who worked too hard for way too little, he didn't say much to us kids, but simply smiled and puffed away. Truly, it's a practice I wish was more prevalent here in the U.S. - we all could use a bit of slowing down to sit, puff, think, and read.

“‘Now let us take our ease here for a little!” said Aragorn.’…I feel a weariness such as I have seldom felt before.’ He wrapped his grey cloak about him, hiding his mail-shirt, and stretched out his long legs. Then he lay back and sent from his lips a thin stream of smoke. ‘Look!’ said Pippin. ‘Strider the Ranger has come back!’ ‘He has never been away,’ said Aragorn. ‘I am Strider and Dunadan too, and I belong to Gondor and the North.'”

The stem on that is absolutely beautiful. It reminds me of the yellow of Colonel Mortimer's pipe from the movie For a Few Dollars More. My most used pipe has a wonderful, smooth caramel colored stem, which is what attracted me to it in the first place. It took the place of my now nearly 30 year old Dr. Grabow, which I retired some years back.

I live in a small town nestled within the upward sweeping valleys of The Cascade Mountains, and squirrel away many fine tobacco blends alongside my personal pipes... to find solace in the long, wet winter nights. I try my hand at music, and as well, poetry - so finding Malcom is very much like discovering a ready-made friend (be it on the other side of our Earth). My first pipe was purchased at age 18 while reading TLOTR in 1972 ... truly inspired, as so many have confessed throughout the years! I raise a toast to you, dear Malcolm; may the fruit of The Holy Spirit hang heavy on your "boughs" and God's wisdom liberally pour into and through your ready heart!

One of my favorite passages in the trilogy, thank you! Being inspired by your videos to give poetry another go, I went to the library and borrowed books of Donne and Keats. I'm still struggling with Keats, but Donne is making some sense. Nearby on the shelf was Tolkien's The Fall of Arthur. This I really enjoyed! It is unfinished, so it abruptly ends just as it gets going (like Steinbeck). But unlike Steinbeck, who had dug himself into a hole, Tolkien was warmed up and in full gear. I would love to hear you read this poem, or other Old English alliterative meter.
