Corncob Adventures

[Kennmon]

haha, my corncob has finally kicked the bucket.

a while back, i got that altadis sampler of pipe tobac and bought a corncob off ebay.

ive been smoking it around 2x a week since around march, and have enjoyed every bowl but the first heh.

today i was smoking it, and looked at the thin spot in the wall that i had been eyeing for a while, it started to char midbowl, and was letting off alot of smoke from the cob itself.

i guess the varnish they use on the outside is slightly flammable, because as it was sitting on the patio table it burst into flames, good thing it didnt happen when i was puffing on it heh.

oh well, it was good while it lasted, now to find a cheap briar to buy.
