    I had to prove my point! He was saying stuff like "I give it a week" and "you're going to cut your face off." And I'm like "here 2 weeks of shaving every workday morning and feel my beautiful face!"

    Neal, are you going to do some of the other super-max blades back to back ? I though the regular Platinum was pretty decent, and really loved the Titanium. Sadly I can't find a source for the Titanium other then tryablade.

    Heights don't bother me. Falling? Yeah, new trouser territory. I would hug that net like my life depended on it.

    I'm going to go with another straight focus this month. I have a couple of problem areas I want to work on. I battle razor burn on my cheekbones. This is something I have struggled with even back in my cartridge days. I think it is an angle issue that I need to work on. I hope to figure this out by making it something that I constantly focus on. Today was a good start. This razor is a very nice shaver.

    La Toja (the never ending bowl)
    Simpson's CH2 Synthetic
    Homemade Lime AS

    This morning I took the soap destroyer once again to the never ending bowl of La Toja. I deviated from my normal routine a little in that I face lathered instead of bowl lathering in my scuttle. The CH2 made quick work of building a great later and I went for a quick 2 pass shave with the Tech. Ended up with a nice DFS and followed it up with a generous application of my homemade Lime AS. My face is feeling soft and smooth and ready for the workweek to be over! Have a great day my friends!

    Sounds like fun. I've been trying to decide if I'm gonna get an SRX,. Let know what you think about it compared to the lighter stuff. I also bought a new inexpensive shavette that's on the way, It had a lot of great reviews-like the magic did-so we'll see how it goes. On the SE front I've really been digging the G-bar I got last month.

    On the survey-as they break out of the gate, Cookies and Soap/Cream are neck and neck , others catching up and kinda behind. With 28 days to go, will the others make it close or are we going to have a Sunday Silence/Easy Goer battle?(1989 Preakness).
