    Thanks Clint. It sounds like you're having a relaxing day. I bet you're missing your girls, though.

    ASW Old Virginia~~Mondial 26mm~~Feather AS-D2~~Gillette Nacet
    Late posting.
    Left-handed and right handed, once again.

    I really like the ASW Old Virginia. It is my second favorite tobacco-scented product.
    Lathers like a dream, too.

    Broke out the scuttle today. What you see pictured, my niece threw for me a few years ago.
    She had never created a scuttle before, so she did a bit of research and this is what she came up with.
    Quite nice, I must say. If I could change anything, I would have the diameter slightly wider.
    The Slick 'n Shiny lather was the perfect undercoating for the Feather AS-D2.
    Used both hands and got a great shave.
    Dirty, little secret. Last night the raffle prize from @Paul76 arrived
    and I did some
    laps on the paddle strop, he so generously included and then...I took it in my left hand and did
    a test run...dry...under my left sideburn with my left hand!!

    Primo is looking forward to this evolution in his shaving. :)

    Sorry Texas-fans. :D

    And let's throw in Bill Neumann soaps.....after performing the mathematicia required(which I see Neal did too), it's $3.50 per oz. Wow.....Jeeves had better make a move on their current 4 oz. soap prices!

    I was in Saraga earlier, so I snapped a few of the tea aisle. This is the smaller store on the south side, close to home. The one on the west side is much bigger.

    It's an awesome place to get spices, too.

    Yes...at the site, you'll see the change to 4...but you have to go to the trouble of looking at the side of the puck, as I said. I credit @PLAla for providing me with this info in the first place(before I looked at the site just now). Meanwhile, "grandpappy" that 7!!!

    Makes me wonder if that will happen at Bill Neumann&Co, too. I guess an 8 oz. puck will indeed last a long time, but $28 for it??????? I'd like to see if they will follow the Jeeves lead to get the pucks down to 4, but should they do this let's see what their price would be.

    Thank you Sir! Sometimes the phone camera catches it's Focus. I snap three or four and hope for the best.

    NCoxSTL AAACK!

    Well, and to add my top soap, Mitchell's Wool Fat is $3.18 per oz. Or, so Charlie @wristwatchb can understand, 208.18 Rubles.
