November 2018 30 Day Rule/Focus Pix & Discussion

More silly talk! What the heck is wrong with you guys?

 

Sorry for your long day Amigo. Probably is its only Wednesday.

 

I know. Maybe today means Friday will be easier.

 

Or, Friday will be the first day of a long weekend.

 

Very cool “Rick Style” photo! That brush is a little too broken in for your taste, isn’t it?

 

Thank you, Jim!

 

Thanks Doug! I hope all is well with you!

 

My advice is, don't even look. Once you start reading reports and wondering about soaps and splashes, you are heading down a rabbit hole that will never have a bottom. Just when I had gotten all the latest and greatest artisan soaps - like Mama Bears and Route 66 - a whole new generation of artisans had popped over the horizon...

The big commercial outfits are pretty stable, although even they introduce new scent products (like ProRaso's Cypress &Vetyver and other new creams), but the artisan makers not only continually introduce new scents, the makers themselves appear and disappear like weeds. Witness the recent closing of Reef Point Soaps and our own TSD Shop...

 

Nice picture, Bruce!

 

The Vector has landed:

Pretty! Can't wait to hear what you think of it.

 

Looks great. Looking forward to your thoughts on the razor.

 

Thank you, Jim.
It will be my first SE shave.

Thanks, Clint. I just loaded a Feather Professional. It's ready for my morning shave.

Oh yeah.

 

Thanks Clint. If he weren't cute, there would be trouble...

 

That's easy Jason. Comparing only the razors I have owned and still do own:
The Ranger Tech is:
Sleeker
Shinier
Smoother
more ergonomic
for my skin the IDEAL gap/angle
It was love at first sight. And I popped the question after the first amazing shave...

 

I tried that with Clubman, but the Pinaud stock prices haven't gone up yet.

Relax Clint. Have a cool one.
Stay up late watching the results last night?

Thanks Bruce. I think? I didn't mean to develop a style, but Jason has said the same thing. I may have to try some avant guarde stuff and mix it up.
After a month or more of one badger brush that old boar seems a little stiffer of bristle. I'll be using the same knot, but a much newer one shortly so I can compare. Might be time to pick up a fresh boar brush so I can enjoy the break in again.

 

No I Rick. Up really early and a very long day at work. Rain came in just as rush hour started so my commute home was almost 2 hours. Now I can relax a little before it all starts again tomorrow.

You cut @PLAla off before his comment about being down to 40 soaps after a reduction. NOW we're talkin silly.
