    Wade is doing great. His work schedule is insane with him working 6 days a week. Maybe he and I can get out for a ride over the holidays.

    That would be great Clint. After looking outside it's hard to believe someone is thinking about a bike ride. Wish Wade a Merry Christmas from us.

    No relaxing morning routine today. The house is abuzz with last minute preparations and getting ready for a trip to visit my Mom. Today we celebrate Christmas with my family. It will be nice to see my nephews and catch up on everything. With all this activity an uneventful shave is just what I need. Luckily all the hardware and software work very well together. Three passes and touch ups just missed the baby. So I added a little lather to my lower right neck and buffed the offending whiskers away. A splash of Floid Blue and I am ready for the day. Now I need to patiently wait for 2 ladies to get ready. :D A good thing, I learned how to hurry up and wait in the Army. I hope everyone has a great Sunday.

    It is cold here as well. As long as the temps are in the 20s or above and the roads are dry, I don't mind riding. Of course I cheat somewhat with electric jacket liners etc that plug into the bike and keep me toasty warm. :)

    Sometimes a Simpson Best ends up like that. I have one, a Commodore 3 which is not one of their more expensive brushes, that the hair in it is just as soft as my Tulip Super.

    If you would fill one full of soap, you’d know for sure.

    “The most OBNOXIOUS razor I’ve used is that iKon Tech.......”

    Fixed it for you. I don’t know if it’s the blade exposure or what, but even being an aggressive razor kind of guy, the Tech got traded off rather quickly. I figured one of the guys around here could make me something out of clip binders, splints and duct tape that would be more comfortable.

    If you find the cookies, let Randy know, cause he’s starting to get a little hacked off.

    I've never heard of electronic jacket liners. Sounds toasty.

    It looks like those tips are starting to hook and gel up. What a great brush!

    Good thing it's Sunday you can watch football, but be careful. This combination can be dangerous. :)
