You know, I'm doing good. It's been a Monday, which, you know, if the week were full of Mondays, then we would be looking for bridges to jump off of regularly. But, you know, it's been okay Monday. Man, you need a hug? You're doing all right. I might need a little pat on the forehead or something, you know. Yeah, things are fine. Yeah, it's good. We had beautiful weather here in Jackson this week. Oh, dude, yeah. Yeah, man, the doors were open at the Squire. The pipe smoke was was thick and full and had a really nice breeze coming through the shop. So, man, it was just fantastic. We had a really good, really good time today. But what's going on with you, man? Man, I've been fighting off the plague. You know, we've got these two. You got the crud again? You know, we got these two kids and the youngest one is doing this thing where she will get she'll get all these diseases from school and then she

will she will turn them into snot through which she will wipe all over her like hand and then

inject her hand into my mouth that's really disgusting i mean i i hope i hope that that was

inappropriate and too much information because i'm just at that point now where it's like, ah. All right. Let's give our listeners a few minutes to go vomit in the bushes. Right, right. Then they can come back and listen to the show. Man, this has been a rough one for me. I mean, I don't know what's been going on, but today in particular, this weekend was rough and then today in particular hit hard. but, with a house full of kiddos and all that, and especially this time of year, you've got a lot of allergies going on.

Dude.

I never get sick.

And like, I have been struggling this time of year.

I really have had a difficult time this season.

So I had to take a little break on my pipe smoking for a couple days.

Just get my sinuses back in order.

But we're in full gear now. to take a little break on my pipe smoking for a couple days, just get my sinuses back in order,

but we're in full gear now.

And, man, as we, as everyone knows, we got a tobacco talk tonight.

We'll get to that in a minute. That's good, man. I'm excited. Yeah, you know, that's the frustrating thing about being sick is you can't enjoy your pipe. I mean, some probably do. I just, you know, you got to give the internals a chance to kind of heal a lot. No, but even if I do smoke when I'm sick, I can't taste taste.

Right.

You know, the flavors aren't what they're supposed to be. So it's like everything's skewed. Just the whole experience, yeah. I'm against it. No more colds for anyone. Well, man, I'm hoping for a great show, man. We've got some fun stuff going on. You know, we mentioned last week, we officially announced it on the show, but we are going to Chicago this year. I'm so excited, dude. Yeah, you know, actually, I was, I realized, you know, there's a couple folks out in Chicago that, you know, I was just thinking the other day like, man, when am I going to be out in Chicago? I was like, oh, yeah, I know what I'm going to be out of Chicago.

I'm going to be out there for the Chicago Pipe Show.

It's happening.

So, this is going to be really great.
