SoS: June 20, 2016 - June 26, 2016

I see you are a dog lover too. I miss my last dog(Auggie, but not Auggie doggies daddy). My daughter and wife forced a cat on me that they rescued from the mouth of a neighbor`s dog(twice) ....... DOG`S RULE !!

That is one beautiful razor. I feel a little envious.

An unusual looking razor, for sure.

Yes it is. I like it a lot. It's mild but a good shaver.

 

Yes, these days you'd have to look for an "organic" or "free-range" one.

 

JUNE 22nd 2016

 

Good for them for rescuing the poor cat. My Mom has a cat, and my sister and her husband 2, but I've always been a dog fan.

 

I would rather have a dog. I have been a dog owner since I`m 6 ( actually the dog owns you). My first dog I got on my 6th b`day, he lived 17 yrs. Then several others since, my last dog, Auggie died of a heart attack, really buckled my knees.

I'm so sorry about Auggie. Our family had a dog when I was 8-he lived until he was 7, then hit by a car. A short time after that tragedy, we got another one, but sadly he met the same fate after about 3 years with us. I believe both dogs had the strength and "charima" to make it to 17.Do you watch the Westminster Dog Show every February? I do, and went to it live in 2006. Fun!!

 

Well , I'm going to beat @crackstar this time......here's my planned shave for Thursday.

prep-Nivea 4 Men Energy Bodywash(in shower)
shave-Rise Super Foam regular
razor-the blue pivot + machine from Gillette
A.S.-Rise A.S. Cooling Balm***

***as my "Den" has begun to increase with aftershaves, I find I don't use the balm as much as I used to. But it's a nice aftershave(best used after the Rise Super Foam).

 

Yes, my wife and I both enjoy it from the semi-finals on. I think this year is only one we missed, I think we had a dinner engagement, I think a grand daughter`s birthday. We got interested about 6-8 yrs. ago when we bought a Jack Russell/ Rat Terrier pup , wasn`t supposed to get over 20 some lbs. In about three weeks he weighed 45 lbs., he was just too much for us to handle, we had to give him away, a beautiful animal.

kind of sad...you say to a potential employer you were "farm-raised" and the potential employer would probably say. " FARM-RAISED? AHAHAHAHAHAHAHA. No one says THAT anymore". To that, I'd simply say "I just did" and walk out.

 

A very good shave w/ The General this morning.
Also first time using Mickey Lee Soapworks and I have to say I'm really impressed by both scent and performance - the "Ruby's Green" is a rather unique scent that is extremely earthy and does smell as if you had just shoved your head into the veggie bin at your local farmer's market. Surprisingly - it works.

Yea it is. Love Tobacco scents. I figured you had a few of these in your Mystic Water arsonal lol.

 

Very much like clubman.

 

SHAVE OF THE DAY



Prep: shower with SV 7th anniversary Bath soap
Razor: Gillette Fatboy (6)
Blade: Dorco Prime
Brush: RazoRock plissoft
Soap: SV Cosmo
Post: Osage Rub/ SC Resolution



Let me start by saying, the SV bath soap made a lather that looked like you could shave with it. Very nice light citrus scent, and nice presentation. Getting to the Cosmo, the scent is light but dark, sweet and a touch of floral. Had a problem with lather dissapation the first pass, but went back to the puck for the 2nd and the lather improved. I have used SV soaps in the past and like them a lot, so it was operator error. Ended up with a so-so shave, but there is always tomorrow. Hope everyone has a great shave!

 

Thank you Joseph. hope you enjoyed it as much as I did. Thanks for the Fatboy idea.
