    Stunning Sheraton, Jim! Did you find it in the wild?
    Pairing the Sheraton with a 400 is shaving royalty...

    Thank you, Jason! I found it on Etsy. Every now and then just find a decent deal on there.

    Thanks Jim. I'd highly recommend Sport Shaving for high quality replating jobs!

    Razor: Schick E2 Injector
    Blade: Chick
    Brush: 30DC/Pure Badger
    Cream: Simpsons Luxury
    Post: Alum, Listerine, WH

    Let's see... E2 with a Chick, well-hydrated badger bush, and a Tardis full of lather. The result- a BBS in two. I really like this razor which is strange because the E2 has such a reputation for aggressiveness that I expected not to.

    You caught the light just perfectly in that one, Clint. Great pic!

    I like the combo I did this morning of Barbasol Mtn. Blast and Aqua Velva. Mountain and water.

    Hey, my Ma was a postal clerk. She spent 32 years in the same branch, suffering the insults of pompous asses like us, ridiculing them for bureaucracy that wasn't their fault, and numbing their minds to the monotony. She had bunions on her feet so bad that they eventually abscessed and resulted in the loss of a foot, on her 63rd birthday, four days after retirement. So watch the generalizations.

    My apologies, Jared. No offense was intended to you or your Mom. Based on my experiences at my local South Florida branch she would not fit in well there at all. Last month, they lost a "tracked" package with no explanation of where it went, giving me no apology and telling me there is nothing I can do about it whatsoever. The clerk's only response (in an I don't give a $%*! tone) was "What do you want me to do, I work for the government". Literally. That was his response. Apparently someone in the government has a new Fatboy and I have no recourse. Thus, the background context for my comment.

    Gotcha!!!

    Dude, my mom was an office manager for a little international airport on a little Canada border town in MN. Like the show Wings, only with snow.

    I was SO hacking on you!

    I really thought that bunions that rotted her feet off, on her birthday, might be a clue....

    But now, I am sorry if I caused you some angst. You have sort of become resident smart-ass, so I had to try.

    SHENNANIGANS RULE!

    All in good fun, brother. I'm more upset about the lack of cookies I've received thus far despite my favorable responses to the questionnaire. (I'm also happy to hear that your mother's foot is still intact.):):rofl:

    At least now you understand about the whole cookie scam thing. It really is better than cleaning other people's carpets while you wait for eternal enlightenment. We tried it both ways.
