    Great set up and photo, Doug. G3 is my birth quarter, and your FB is a beauty! I'm fortunate to have a G1, G2, and G3.

    I go to bed and you guys pull the pin on a chat bomb. Sheesh. I can not multi quote good enough to make comments.
    So mixed in with all the top notch pics and gear I am gonna toss in my low class stuff. Just to prove I still CAN use something with a 2 sided blade. I dug out a 4 piece OC travel razor. Threw in a Dorco STD-301 and fired up some Old Spice soap with a Maggards synthetic. Wonderful shave developed..I have video to prove it. Topped it off with the ultimate old guy smell of Old Spice AS. Outstanding start to a work night.

    This is a busy place! We may all have to quit working, doing chores, and sleeping so we can keep up. Nice picture of some fine gear. I like that razor. It's sharp!

    I am pleased to report that the Limerick Crew has accepted the challenge and is toiling away at producing limericks ... er ... lyrics for songs from this turbulent era of uprisings and rebellions. We feel sure they are destined to ring down the ages right alongside such classics as "The Minstrel Boy", "Men of Harlech", "Battle Hymn of the Republic" and so forth. Here are the first two results:

    1. Oh now is the Winter of our Cookie Discontent
    Frustrated cookieless Floridian Gators repent!
    Or Boris will come
    Off-key songs he’ll hum
    As he suppresses proletarian dissent.

    2. Cookie-less shavers of the world unite!
    Throw off the Cartel's shackles tonight!
    Raise high your Snickerdoodles
    Throw in some German strudels
    And take captive helpless victims on sight!

    Stay tuned: many more deathless classics to come. In fact, don't just wait to see them, come join the Cookie Revolution and help write them...

    NCoxSTL AAACK!

    I like the first one. The second disturbs me. Seems seditious.

    Like any great conflict, there will be songs sung by both (or all) sides... One person's Civil War or War Against Slavery is another's War Between the States or War of Northern Aggression...

    The Limerick Crew is simply recording for posterity the songs sung by the doughty (or doughy) warriors of all loyalties during the Cookie Revolution / Cookie Uprising / Cookie Sedition / Cookie Anarchy. The content will naturally vary.

    Thank you, Andrew!

    Thanks, Jim. Brenda set it up for me.

    :happy097: ROTFLMAO! I gave it some thought.... No, I'll not touch a hair on Santa's face, or head. Just as Jim's @Norcalnewb wife enjoys her Nutcrackers, mine enjoys her hairy Santas... she has several. While your idea is very funny... I want to live!

    Thanks, Jason. I agree, there have been several today and yesterday!

    Jim... I will if you will. ;)

    Thanks, Clint!

    Thanks, Bruce. Yes you're right... they are very tame at #1. Still fun though! :shaver

    Thank you, Brian! Go Vikes! :susel:
