    Maybe it was one of my hairs.

    A very good lather from the brush. Next will be Williams.

    Do I need to come have a "TALK" with the land lord?

    Perhaps the entire 30 DC crew should TALK to this landlord.

    Second Shave the rule done and dusted. Dialed the adjustable down to four and went to work, experiment with using with using a predominately over hand grip. I think it helped keep the cutting angle shallower, however I'm not use to it, so I think I used a little too much pressure, so I have a fair bit of heat in some places. I also probably chased the baby a little too much, I know I know. I think next Shave I'm going to stick with the over hand grip, and try to hold the razor handle, and work on dailing in the pressure.

    NCoxSTL AAACK!

    He actually notified us by text. Hard to talk to someone when they hide behind their phone. We'll end up better off.

    I was a driver for a moving company in Atlanta. Never had a problem with the biggest U-Haul rents out, either. But straight trucks, only. I don't like the ones that are hinged in the middle. Now we need some young guys that'll load and unload for pizza and beer.

    We don't need no stinkin' U-Haul. He probably don't have more than one or two truckloads.

    Sorry the shave didn't go as planned John. On the positive side, there were no scars at the end of the shave. I actually had to go back yesterday afternoon and use some Nivea balm as well.

    First no blood, then no irritation, and all of a sudden a baby riding dolphin is sitting there, tapping you on the shoulder.

    Crappy landlord. I hope you are able to line up a new place easily.

    This does work. Caveat:

    Just make sure your lather is slicker than whatever goop/cream/soap etc.. that she already uses, or she is gonna try it, and just chalk it up to one more manchild, tool and shiny object obsessed hobby.

    I've tried a PAL Injectomatic on a pass-around. Needed more time to fully figure it out as I didn't get great shaves while I had it. Also owned a PAL Adjustable and sold it due to the same issue of poor shaves. There is a sweet spot in the angle of those razors and you have to be dead on.

    I would certainly try an Injectomatic again but probably not the Adjustable.
