Shenanigans?

 

This thread is a must read!! The love amongst the group is so good it becomes intoxicating. Plus dipping my cookies in vodka is

 

Now let's see...what are the lyrix from that great Dusty Springfield song? Oh yeahhhh..

Wishin and hopin
and
Drinkin and smokin
Plannin and schemin

 

I'm sure many a shenanigan was perpetuated in Moscow with. "Hold my Vodka and watch this".
In Japan it would be more like, "Please to hold my Sake, as I demonstrate an unusual talent".

 

Let me tell the worst thing that can happen when drinking Sake. I changed my mind.

 

Too true....Vodka(or sake), because no good story ever started with salad!

 

Sounds like I would enjoy the Stirling Lime scent.

 

Thanx Charlie....looking forward to THAT(with all the blades with which I've been PIFed).

 

ya say you want modeRATIIIOON, well you know

 

Funny thing is...I neither drink alcohol nor eat cookies. But it is so fun to joke about!

(Four days of auto DFS, watched NBA, listened to rockabilly, played guitar, smoked a pipe, had weather, all is quiet in Kentucky)



Have a superb Saturday!

 

I'll just leave these pictures here while I catch up on the thread.

 

Super sweet choice for the layout.

It is Lunar New Year here one of the big two holidays here. Everything is closed and no reason to shave except for myself.

I decided to celebrate with a monster brush, Polo 12. This thing is huge an normally I would only use under the influence and when I want to shave my whole body. Given the size of the brush I need something with on opening large enough to accommodate this brush, so Route 66 it is. Rounding out the festivities is a Drew Dick smiling 6/8 full hollow. This is a very loud razor, perfect for the new year.

Even though I did not need enough a close shave my OCD took over and I went for it. Four passes and even a fifth smoothing pass (WTG). The razor is very sharp and while I got the long lasting BBS it did cost some irritation.

Irritation A- Closeness A+ Smoothness A- Sharpness A+



Unfortunately being members of the cartel the boys had to work today. The Japanese cartel provided some food and drink for the boys and the Russian cartel order a singer for entertainment. Unfortunately the singer was paid with a case of soju(the national drink in Korea) and never showed up. We did get a text from her with some unintelligible ravings and a picture. Our Russian brothers while generous, their idea kind of backfired.

 

Soju is Cartel approved as a vodka stand-in. Goes well with everything.

Happy New Year!

 

It's not unusual for ideas from my gang to backfire. Too much vodka, too little engineering. Even in social settings.

 

Love the Mr. Blass. That was my scent of the day as well.
