Got the lights up. Just waiting on the remotes.
Chic. Do they fit Edison bulbs?
Normal sockets. They come with those trendy bulbs where you see the filament glowing yellow.

What else does one do when vacuuming?
Whar?! No riding the floor buffer?
Well, to my credit, when I worked with Edison we didn’t call them that.

Our floor buffer is a devil machine for the uninitiated
But sadly, we have the motor on a stick kind, not a rideable one.
Glad things shaped up nicely for you! The room looks good and I like the colors. I LOVE that nice big window in that room!
thanks man!
2019 shave #52 (DE:26 SE:11 Str:15 Cart:0) - 201 days of consecutive shaving
Asylum "The Doctor" RX w/ Feather Proguard (5)
Custom synth
Sapone Di Paolo Agrume
Alum
Witch Hazel
Sapone Di Paolo Agrume balm
Repeat after me why, don't, I, use, this, soap, more, often. I forgot what a good performer the Sapone Di Paolo soaps are. Nice rich lather and great performance all around. Very nice scent as well. I had one of their balms before and it didn't soak in as I would like. Decided to try another and same thing. Plus, the scent doesn't really stick around. So good soap, blah balm.
Wife is out of town for the day. Flew out early and back tonight, but that meant I was up earlier and to work later. My daughter was out at a
concert late with her mom, so we got to bed late as well. Chalk up another zoned out day. On a side note, it's been way too long since I've fired up a pipe. Before November I think. I need to get out there. Plus I have my new lighter from the trainer of safety cats I haven't gotten to use yet. I'm tellin' ya. I really was born to be retired.

Pipe smoker huh? I’m a cigar man myself. Way too cold here right now to stand outside for that though haha!
I have an older model of that same lighter. I love having that built-in tamper! What kinds of tobacco do you like? I’m kind of an Escudo fan myself.
Well, I can talk much more knowledgeably about cigars. I smoked cigars for a good while until I met my wife and she hated them. Have had a few on occasion since when we're on trips. Over at B&B a guy was thinning his collection of pipes and I decided to give that a shot after a failed attempt to learn to smoke one in college. Got a little obsessed as this group is known to do and ended up with 8 pipes and many tins of tobacco.
I couldn't really say what I'm into as I haven't had a lot of experience yet. I know I like English blends. I'm restricted to smoking outside, so not really into the flavored stuff. I'm excited to open up a tin of Frog Morton's Cellar, but I need to work through the stuff I already have open. I do agree cigars are much easier, but I like the look of a nice pipe. I think I've decided to fill the humidor up again too. There have been times when I've wanted to go out for a smoke, but didn't want to deal with the pipe. A nice Connecticut Shade wrapped cigar is probably my favorite. Nat Sherman, H. Uppman, Arturo Fuente were some of my go tos.
