    The loft on this brush is supposed to be 55 mm +/- 1.5 mm. I will measure it and PM you. Maybe won't be until tomorrow, I'm a little under the weather today.

    Poor kid. Let's hope she can do better than that.

    Actually, to both my son and daughter I have always preached this philosophy:

    Thanks Charlie. How are you enjoying retirement so far?

    I've only seen a Kent online or discussed on this forum (or used by 007). Yup, they look cool. Isn't everything used by Bond cool?

    I recently acquired a BK12, and it's bloomed out a full 4". It is like a caricature of a shaving brush.

    Hi Doug. First of all, I hope you start feeling better soon.

    My Bride and I love retirement. We try to plan a fun day together each week. Yesterday, we went on a road trip to check out some Brompton folding bicycles. These bikes actually fold into a small enough package to carry them in your trunk. I think we're going to get a pair so that we can bike some short trips through our local parks. We've already discovered a few parks and walking trails nearby. I am blessed to volunteer one day a week with some pretty cool kids at the local children's hospital, and that literally fills me with joy and hope. I'm making time to exercise more and study the Bible more. I've lost a couple pounds, and my goal is to continue losing to improve my overall health. Another goal is to read The Bible from cover-to-cover each year. I just began doing this for the fourth time, and it helps me stay on track. My eating and sleeping habits are also better. We've got some trips planned later in the year. I have a fantastic guitar teacher. I'm starting to make some progress with the guitar, and I have the callouses on my finger tips to prove it!

    So, all things considered, I am very blessed and the retirement thing is just the tip of the iceberg. :)

    I do like that beehive. For a long time now I have wanted a Rudy Vey brush, and thought about having him do a butterscotch beehive. I always pictured one looking a lot like that.

    I absolutely love the way that brush pops against all the different backgrounds. Your photos and scenery are stunning.

    Well, if that poster doesn't communicate to both boys and girls the importance of education, nothing will. Her expression is awesome; only matched by his.
