Hellish day at work today. Legal issues and regulatory issues seem to take up 90% of my time anymore. 6PM and 40 unread emails since lunch. Then the texts start pinging. 6 of them from my sales and operations guys since 5:00. What next? Now my wife is calling. I better pick that one up. “Are you on your way?” I wake up to the fact that it’s our anniversary and the babysitter is due there any minute. I walk away from it all, spend 3 leisurely hours at a fancy restaurant with her and marvel at the fact she’s put up with me for 13 years since we wed. I’m now counting my blessings. One of our best anniversary dinners yet.
13 Charlie. Pretty sure that qualifies her for one of the larger model mansions in heaven. Hope it’s within walking distance of my shack.
I might send the new Clubman company my shaggy dog joke about Lincoln being born in a log cabin he built with his bare hands. I love Clubman, of course, but Pinaud was born in 1810...did he create what would become a world renowned men's grooming company before he became one year old?
Happy anniversary Randy! I hope you get a break from the work drama soon. Sent from my Galaxy using Tapatalk
Shave two with this same setup Tonight’s shave went quite a bit better only three small nicks two of which were in the same spots as last night. So I think I just reopened them. On the bright side I did end up with a nice and smooth shave.
But won't your shack be in a much hotter climate? Happy Anniversary!! If I had known sooner I could have sent you a gift. Maybe, oh I don't know, cookies? Sent from my SM-S327VL using Tapatalk
July 2018 July 16 Razor - 1962 (H1) Gillette Slim (9) Blade - (1) Soap - Stirling Iced Pineapple Brush - Stirling Two Banded Synthetic Post - Alum It's Monday, and that means it's Menthol Monday, and I just got a sample of Stirling Iced Pineapple. Yep, that works. Besides, it's been driving me crazy since it arrived Saturday. I've sniffed it enough. Time to shave with it. I chose the Stirling brush to keep it seimple. Gillette Slim on 9 for the aggressive approach with a fresh Ladas from Moscow. Fine setup. Very fine. This soap excites me almost as much as the Iced Coffee. Rod seems to know just how much menthol to put these "Iced" soaps to make it pop but not enough to cover the primary scent. Just like the Iced Coffee, the Iced Pineapple gives you all the main scent you want and also provides that icy menthol after effect as you go through the second pass and beyond. Really well balanced. I'm sure you could add some menthol if you like it even colder. That might be "glacial pineapple" though. Two passes, touch ups, the baby is in the house and I'm thinking I need to try some more of his Iced soaps. Good stuff baby.
