what do you want to know
the other day i attended the 6th Annual International Slow Pipe-Smoking Competition. It was on the second floor of some palazzo and up there a bunch of old dudes with numbered bibs were sitting around smoking pipes. The rules were that they were allowed three grams of tobacco and three matches, and they were attempting to break the world record of two hours and twenty-five minutes. A crowd sat in rapt attention and periodically broke out in applause when one of the smokers took a particularly subtle puff. After about three minutes I left, but later on I saw one of the old dudes walking around with a big trophy- an honour indeed.
Man, what a weekend.
