    I am having arthroscopic surgery on my right shoulder Friday afternoon. I am wondering how that will impact my morning shaves starting Saturday. Stay tuned.

    First, good luck with the surgery. Second, I hope you're left-handed.

    Thanks, Herm. I'm not left-handed, but I may become a convert after tomorrow.

    Today's shave was with my Gillette Rocket Aristocrat Jr., Made in England. Also, it was my first shave with the Jayaruh #139 silvertip badger. It turns out, it is a very nice brush.

    I hope the surgery went well and there isn't too much discomfort after.

    After 36 hours I decided to do a left-handed shave featuring my Gillette Fatboy. Great success.

    That's good news Jim.

    I've been using my Gillette razors between straight razor shaves and I've discovered that I really like those Gillettes. Sure, injectors are great and I really like those Gem razors. Too many razors and not enough shaves!

    Anyway, using a different Gillette every day, I realize that they were definitely mainstream, but they had enough variety to keep every shaver happy. My Gillettes are darn fine shavers!

    Two passes and touch ups with the Gillette Slim H2 with a Personna Super blade (19) gave me a close, comfortable shave.

    I have 24 Gillette DE razors. By the 24th, I will have used each one of them one time. Then, I will be picking some favorites to finish off the month. These will get me through the 28th. Here is my line up for the fourth week of DEcember Gillette DE month (December 22-28). Three shaves after this group will finish off the year.
