    I am not even close to done yet. Since we both trying to get our careers going we started later in life. My oldest Asha is a senior in the University and will be going on for her PhD and my youngest Maya is a Senior in Highschool and will be starting University next year. Since I expect Maya to go to Graduate school as well, we will be paying for college for years to come.

    Picture of the girls. Asha on the left and Maya on the right.

    The razor looks great Brian. The scales just make it pop.

    After using the Genesis so often, I decided to go back to my smoothest DE for the week. The Tres Amigos brush has great backbone and scrub making face lathering a true joy. Three passes and touch ups left me with a near perfect shave. My lower right neck is not quite as good as the other shaves this week. I can safely say that is operator error and not on the equipment. A splash of Platinum aftershave and I am ready for the day. I hope everyone has a great Saturday.

    I put my kids picture up earlier, I still have a ways until college. My youngest will be starting college around the time I had hoped to retire. Now, I will probably get the pleasure of working a few extra years. The good news is that they say the longer you work, the quicker your die. I won't have to worry about saving quite as much for retirement. :)

    Beautiful girls. My Twins are 34 and my youngest is going to be 24 next month. I've had an empty nest for a while. I miss them every day.

    Thanks, Doug. Every time I use it, I remember how good TOBS cream is. I don't imagine I will ever be without some in my den. The TSD Milk Aftershave balm is also a "refill when empty" product. The Supply Provision brush just works, although I think I've seen handles that looked nicer, and the Rockwell 6S, of course, is now one of my go-to razors.
