I confess I no longer own a calabash pipe with a meerschaum bowl, but
I still have a rather nice drop-stemmed meerschaum pipe. I get it out
about once a year.

Thanks, but I don't need anyone's help to appear like a greasy slob.
I can do it by myself. ;-)

I used to have a soft flannel smoking jacket in a tiny grey check
pattern, and black silk lapels. I don't remember what happened to it.
But I never got food stains on it.
