May 2016 30 Day Rule/Focus Pix and Discussion

I have to say I believe you deserve a medal for the most challenging MAYhem month, and not just because of your shaves. Job change, hornet attacks, more bad shaves, I mean seriously, we may need to contact a witch doctor to try and remove some bad juju around there. That might improve the Dorco AC blade as well. It may be possessed the the soul of a dead Flying Eagle or Tiger!

 

Well I can say I've never worked with a soap quite this much before and I do find it a bit puzzling that it keeps coming up. Maybe the bad juju surrounding @Mr. Freeze93 is attaching itself to that as well!

 

It got worse after dinner...I go to throw a bag of trash out and was chased by a raccoon that had falling into the bin. Dove into my truck and watched him tear open bags of trash and make a mess until he decided to run into the woods. So I just got back in and out of my second shower as I just spent the last hour picking up trash and rebagging it... Think it is time to install a gun rack in the truck and keep the Mossberg in it. I don't care how cute they look the little jerks are vicious.... Will be posting again a little later as I have a Feather loaded into my CJB for my head shave later on....I am quite scared to shave as I think I may be cursed.

 

Ummmmmmmm.....just a word of advice from the outside looking in........not sure having a loaded gun within reach is really the best idea for you right now. Just saying. And yes I do know all about raccoons. They are my enemy when we go camping. A couple of years ago they were actually breaking windows on cars to get to the coolers inside. People were leaving the window cracked, the raccoons would jump up and grab the edge of the glass with their paws and shake and pry the windows until they snapped and shattered. Smart devils.

 

True.... seeing as my luck has been lately I will more then likely hit a pot hole and shoot myself at the same time.. I just cant believe it had the...uhh manhood to actually charge me...

 

Between the cookies and the shaves few ever return from the Dark Side.

 

May 16 Focus Shave

Back from Hokkaido, it was gorgeous so I picked up a straight for Mondays shave instead of a pain stick. The PRC Damascus straight delivered a smooth and close shave as always.

I have not processed the pics from camera but here are two shots from my phone. Stayed at an Ryokan 2 hours from Sapporo and enjoyed the onsen everyday. I always get a great shave when using the onsen water.

Irritation A Closeness A- Smoothness A Sharpness A

 

Nothing beats a Ryokan and an onsen. Only once a day?

 

Ok, I am busted, three times a day.

 

I had to look both up but I now understand what they mean. Beautiful pictures and it sounds very relaxing.

 

Great looking razor!

 

....for a final MAYhem score of 9.1/10 composite. Well played.

 

@NCoxSTL

This one has "heart." We need guys like this, let him know there's an opening in the Kyoto prefecture office.

 

Very cool!

 

He had to fight both hornet and raccoon today. That is a bad day no matter how you look at it. Well deserved promotion!

 

It ain't the Lion and the Cobra, but we'll admire it for what it is!

 

That might be a good place for him. He is kind of scaring the Russian contingent. Something about "crazier than Kruschev". Not sure what to make of it.

 

I could handle the cobra. The hornets? Not so much.

 

We all have our unique strengths.

 

When he starts using his shoe on the podium at Cartel business meetings, we'll know for sure.
