    Great looking set up, Keith. So, how many Colognes do you actually own?

    Praise the Lord, Perry, for your family's safety! Nonetheless, I can only imagine that it is very unsettling and scary. I'm praying this morning for your family's peace, the other driver(s) involved, and for your Bride's bumps, bruises, and broken toe to heal.

    You as well, Charlie. Although, I'm sitting here watching a blizzard outside. Over 8" of snow since last night. This is quite early; heck, our golf courses just closed a few weeks ago... life in the Rocky Mountains!

    Great news this morning. My Bride awarded the combined scents of MdC and Fine L'Orange Noir an 8 out of 10 and commented, "I like that." Best report yet during this focus!

    This was my first use of MdC in many months. The container is nearly full, so I'm sure to have it for many more months. I call it unscented, but I may be wrong about that. I would describe it as a nice, light "fresh garden" scent. I loaded the Soap Destroyer like I have learned to do, and I had lather all over the place this morning. I purposely waiting a few minutes before completing my post-shave (I hardly ever do that), and the skin feel was excellent - not at all drying.

    I give the Perma-Sharp Super a big thumbs up after its first three shaves in the focus. All the shaves have been near BBS after two passes. Next up is Gillette Silver Blue. This will be my first time using a GSB. I've read so many great reports about this blade, and I'm really looking forward to tomorrow's shave.

    I pity those poor fools that are suffering through No Shave November! :D

    Brian, I hope you invited the neighbors over to shave. Otherwise, you wasted a cubic meter of lather! Your straight razor is gorgeous!

    It will be fun to following this mystery shaving cream trial. "A" gets a thumbs up for lather production. Of course, old JR 84 was there to help it along!

    Thanks! It lathers well. I used it all in 3 1/2 passes and liked it.

    Looks like Mystery Cream A will get high marks for volume of lather produced. The razor looks gorgeous. The scales just make it pop.

    There are always positives, Clint. I hope it means a good ski season! There have been a few years, not all that often, when the ski hill and golf courses are open at the same time. Only if there is an unseasonably warm spring in the valley with snow still on the mountain. First week of April or so. There have been folks who've made a point of skiing in the morning and golfing in the afternoon.
