RABBIT RABBIT

Rabbit rabbit. Explanation: the first thing you say on the first day of the month is "rabbit rabbit". It's a tradition, mostly kind of Anglo. Keeps the boogah boogah away or something. It's good luck. No one can actually explain how this came about or why, and like many superstitions and customs it does not make much sense.

One friend posts pictures of his pet rabbits. Another friend shows a drawing of one or more rabbits drinking coffee. Because of that, I got back into the habbit.
On this blog, the rabbit will enjoy a pipe.


Usually the rabbit may be assumed to smoke old style English or Balkan mixtures (Latakia and Turkish on a base of Virginias, with or without other tobaccos like Perique, fire-cured, or burley), or like myself for more than the last decade, a nice flake or Virginia blend. Only rarely burley blends or aromatics; the rabbit is not a ruddy pervert or eccentric.

Coffee beforehand is implied, but as one cannot smoke inside anymore, he probably finished a strong cup before heading out onto the moors with a briar and tobacco. Just assume that he's wide awake, okay? Manipulating matches, especially when one lacks opposable thumbs, requires attention and coordination, as does packing the bowl properly.
