An e-cigarette or e-shisha as they seem to be known these days, with the resultant glycol based "smoke" (actually a vapour) drifting through my beard.
These devices have evolved considerably since they were first introduced as a safer alternative to smoking. They work in the same style as a fog machine by heating a smoke fluid based on water and glycol. The fluid travels from a reservoir up a wick which has a heating wire wound round it. The glycols commonly used are vegetable glycerine or propylene glycol, and flavours and optionally nicotine are added if desired.
I don't smoke, so I use the nicotine-free fluids.
These devices have incredible geek value and are not only cheaper for smokers to use, but also significantly safer, since they are just breathing a vapour. The fog generated is exactly the same stuff that clubbers have been exposed to in nightclubs for decades with no known adverse effects.

    Yeah. The beards always going to be there. My current inspiration is "Tank Abbott". I went through a phase where I dyed the beard absolutely jet black in the style of the American "playoff beard". (Google it for images) Also search for Brian Wilson baseball.

    Glad to see you've grown your beard back to a proper length! I remember a few years ago you trimmed it down after an "incident" with a group of idiots.
