Roll up a nice cylinder and use that special key on said cylinder of enlightenment.

My idea of a party nowadays is to kick back with some caffeine & nicotine.
Really though, hopefully an old timer chimes in as to what the heck that is.

That key clip is for sure a roach clip. I still have at least one exactly like it around here someplace. I looked for it don't know where it is at the moment. Had a couple of them from the very early 70's. They sold them for years in what was called Head Shops now known as Smoke Shops here in Phoenix Az. For those local trivia buffs from the hay day the most famous place was called the Inner Sanctum near downtown Phx on the main drag called Central Ave. I wonder if I am the only one that still remembers this famous place beside Alice Cooper.
