Great shave and photo, Rick. Glad it's nothing more than some stomach flu (even though that's bad enough!).

Great photo, Rick! I'm glad Melody is hanging in there and nothing major was to blame.

Great combo, Brian! Love those shave stash altoids tins too.

Kind of looks like eastern Washington, to be honest...

Is there anything that differentiates that soap from a regular facial shave soap, Perry? I wonder who the target audience of that product usually is- Swimmers? Bike racers?

Glad to hear the new product is a 'hit', Jim. Most B&Ms are to me, but the misses are there too.

Epic is good! Sounds like a great shave, Clint.

Sir Slice-a-Lot? What is your big hit- I like Big Pucks? I'm here 'til Saturday, try the meatloaf...
A great write up as usual, Joseph.

Glad you like the Booster! The bottles are 400ml, I will have a supply for a very long time, it appears. About the same length of time as your Frankensoap.

Another great write up, and a stellar 'retro' pic, John.

Super news about Melody!...and a great estate sale find too.

Thank you very much, Gentlemen.

The true existential question there is......"If I'm the only one here can I prove I exist?". "I think, therefore I am". But.....if there is nobody else here to experience me thinking, then am I really thinking or just experiencing a delusion based on the idea of thinking? Of course, all that matters at that point is to avoid stepping on the broken glass from the lamp.

The almighty @Bama Samurai fears no spider. He probably put it there and told it not to move.

Good picture and setup with an outstanding A/S and Cologne Neal.

I have always had a problem with Rene Descartes, " I think therefore I am." It was always my interpretation that it should read, "I am therefore I think." If you are not, there is no way you'll be thinking.

2-0 for who?

Thanks, Jason! I wondered the same thing about the target audience. Seems like a strangely specific product. Perhaps there are more manscapers than we know about. It certainly lathered like a normal shave soap. I don't see what would make it more suited for body shaving than face shaving.

Found this in a quick search:


Little small to read, but here are the ingredients:



And for full effect:

Thanks, Jason.
I haven't gone too far out in a limb with B&M as far as scent descriptions so so far nothing has disappointed. They do have a new soap base, Excelsior, that has me curious.

Now you're just overthinking it. Which means you are twice the man you were before since thinking more means you "are" more.

Thanks Neal, I think?

To England of course
It is now 3-0 though!

Uhhh...

I may not be in their primary target audience...

I hope today went better than expected, Randy. You will be ready for a restful weekend with your sweet family, my friend.

Thanks, Charlie. It was rough, but went a bit better than I anticipated. The end results are TBD, but like you said, the weekend is coming and time with the girls is where it is at. As always, I appreciate your thoughts and prayers, and those of my 30DC brothers. This group is much more than a shaving forum to me.

I'm glad it was better than anticipated. Enjoy your weekend!
