[原创]Confessionum

初三那年，自以为，已是有了心事的大人，于是邂逅生命中第一支香烟。
    冬天，卫生间后窗的寒风还记得；操场上，草丛里，七个人分享一根短kent，急吼吼烫伤嘴唇的感觉也记得；想起头一次拿到熊猫的那份激动，手指依旧会颤。牙黄了，由它去；新衣服又多了一个洞，也由它去，一支烟里的尼古丁足以毒死一只小老鼠——放屁！四圆以下一包的烟，牌子、价钱、口感，没人比在下更熟；但，够钱买软中华时也决不碰硬的——因为“烟有好有坏，味有浓有淡，能够辨味的是内行，不择烟而抽的是大方之家”。
    愈堕落愈快乐，愈快乐于是愈堕落。在母亲永无休止的婆心苦口之下，在“烟中自有颜如玉，烟中自有黄金屋”的信仰里；在惊遇美女却寡人有疾（过敏性鼻炎），不识香臭时，在每一次跺烟、叼起、擦火、点燃后的悠然自得里，在下悟出了一条人生真谛：吸烟与不吸烟只是不同的生活方式而已，我们无法肯定的指出哪一种更为幸福；但只要你义无反顾的选择了其中一种，毫无疑问，你将是幸福的。所以，很长一段时间，我的心洋溢在幸福之中。
    但，世事无常，快乐总比想象中消逝得还要快：不知从何时起，也不知是为了甚么，在经历过这两种幸福生活方式之后，我却开始了肯定是较为不幸的第三种——戒烟，确切的说是"屡战屡败，屡败屡战"的戒烟。从此，每一支香烟都成了计划中的告别演出，而正是这“最后一支”的信念为我提供了无数个下一支的理由；我敢说我陷入了弗洛依徳也无法解释的痛苦中。Comrade Leslie，或许你愿意，用你的pipe，用你的Matured Virginias让一颗颤抖的心再一次感到幸福？

Leslie 虽然是烟斗的大力提倡者，但至今仍未能戒烟－－戒香烟……

因为还觉得她们角色之间存有某种不可替代性：

Cigarette smokin' is kinda' way by which I can pleasantly overindulge myself again and again, can't bust 'em...

Pipe smokin' always means peaceful satisfaction to me, ever and forever...

Care to join us, for satisfaction's damned sake?

弗洛依徳的“快乐原则”在香烟面前是无效的。有空约了见个面如何？

别忘记一起叫我啊,把上海烟斗的同好们聚在一起,一段时间见一次面,台湾的斗友可是有类似的聚会的啊.

Enzo

呵呵，Royallu兄早已上岸了，目前在享受生活啦，不似我等庸庸碌碌之辈，每天为生计奔波劳碌

上海的烟斗客真幸福，人群比较集中。你们可要多搞些聚会，交流经验，以烟斗会友呀！不妨推举一位上海区的负责人（上海分陀陀主），拍板聚会时间，地点和形式，然后在公告区发英雄帖。聚会时不妨拍拍照片上传，以展现你们抽烟斗时的潇洒风姿和快乐！

可惜小弟不能赴泸参加…… 来日方长，希望有机会！

旧贴好啊！

与村内同好共勉

"I smoke a pipe because it brings out something good in me. Pipe smokers are looked on as generally kind and benevolent. Grandfatherly if you will. I have found this to be quite true. I have yet to meet a pipe smoker who is arrogant or full of himself. I have yet to meet the pipe smoker who knows all there is to know about smoking a pipe. I have yet to meet the pipe smoker who is unwilling to help out with gentle instruction and encouragement when asked. So, I am doing my best to live up to the example that is set before me, and to become an example to others, that they may find themselves as welcomed as I have been.

I smoke a pipe because it is a tie to others greater than I, from the past. I will never be known as a great mind, such as Einstein or Bohr (or even Holmes) nor a great writer such as Clemens, but were I able to meet them, we could talk for hours about pipes and thus build a bridge across the vast depths of humanity.

I smoke a pipe because it is a tie to others greater than I in the present. I have met so many great people through this avocation and because of them; my life is so much the richer. I have met co-workers who are pipe smokers and am privileged to count them among my friends. I have met other pipe smokers as customers and my life has been enriched by my encounter with them, as I hope theirs has been with me. Through face to face interaction in the store where I work, and through electronic communication, I have met many great people whom I have asked questions of, and answered questions from. My life has been enriched by people who have names like Beard, Follodor, Paden and Manadily and "handles" like Birmingham Bob, Ming-Kahuna and Colonel Panic. While I may not agree with them all the time (or sometimes even often) my horizons are expanded, my knowledge is greater, and my life richer for having met them. To think, all this from a few ounces of an obscure wood, a "bit" of rubber or plastic and a pinch of a shredded leaf.

I smoke a pipe because it is my hope to be a tie to the future. I hope to be the kind of man that is looked on favorably by future generations, and if I am remembered as a "typical pipe smoker" so much the better. "---GLP
