    I'll be in Boulder two days and one night, staying with a cousin. She'll pick me up in Golden.

    In 2010 I was involved (not my choice) in a wild brawl involving 5 people at TailFeathers at 11pm, the Wednesday night before Thanksgiving. For a minute, it was like Road House. It ended with me holding the highly misguided initiator in an arm bar/scissor lock combo until I could hand him off to a helpful Adams deputy.

    Funny thing is, I haven't consumed alcohol since 31 May of 2003...but, sometimes, drunks won't take no for an answer.

    No brawls or BJJ demos today, but if anyone wants to learn how to eat mai fun with chopsticks, I am buying.

    I've never been in Tailfeathers but I figured it would be the mid point for you and I. I'm a couple miles east of 85 off 120th.

    I didn't quit drinking but I cut way back when I changed my ways. I drank less in 2017 than I normally would in an afternoon.

    Enjoy your lunch!

    TailFeathers is probably one you can skip. ;) and congrats on the healthy choices!

    Tabac shave soap

    Schick J-1, Chick blade

    I wonder if Tabac is sold in pharmacies in Germany? Had the urge for that slickness, wonderful residual glide, and easy to lather functionality of this soap. It produced plenty of lather with a minimal sousing. The puck has shrunk enough to see a space between the soap and glass tub. Three passes + lather to spare so I did a full round of clean up fiddling. The Schick head is such a small surface I'm relearning where the effective spot is. Just a touch of stubble on my chin puts me in a high SAS. DFS or better before the month's over.
    Splashed a good handful of LT for the great citrus scent. It's sweet enough to blend OK with the soap.
    Good Shaves Y'all!

    I don't care how good the Artisans get, Tabac can hang with the best of them!

    That's a key reason I described myself in here as "An East Coast Boy With A West Coast State Of Mind". (That's been taken down now, though).

    Thank you Clint!
    That's very cool Chris. Glad it qualifies as drug store soap but lathers like premium. Thank you again for the intro to Schicks. This J-1 is a joy to use.
    I'm with you Andrew! I know they sell a full line of products. The AS is on my list.

    What kind of tobacco do you get with Tabac... Pipe "Tabac" or Cigar "Tabac"?

    Neither, its a tobacco flower scent

    ohhh ok. I think when it comes to tobacco A.S. scents, I'll try Pipe or Cigar. That goes for soaps, too.
