    I know we're only 12 days into the year-long survey, but I am coming dangerously close to projecting "shave...simple,right" as the winner. Course I won't make my projection OFFICIAL til mid-December, unless @BaylorGator can get his team of snacks moving faster.

    Thank you Bruce. I managed to get almost 12 hours of much needed sleep last night. I have an appointment in a few minutes to get my hair cut. Then I will resume full relaxation.

    I'm glad you're getting recharged, Clint. A good night's sleep and a little downtime this weekend will be good. If you go high and tight on the sides, you shouldn't need another trim for two weeks.

    I managed to get in nearly 12 hours of much needed sleep. After taking Mocha for our chilly morning walk, a warm shower and shave were in order. The big flat top ate through the MW soap and whipped up a rich slick lather. Three passes and touch ups ended with the baby just escaping capture. No worries since the shave was a smooth and drama free. Off my to get my hair cut before resuming full relaxation. I hope everyone has a great Saturday.

    I get it cut very short anyway. I regularly have Erica cut my hair every 4 weeks or so. Very nice barber shop http://www.roostersmgc.com and most importantly not a bottle of that dreadful Clubman splash or powder in the shop.

    The Karve is a beaut
    Hair trim and adult bevvies
    What else do you need?

    Haiku inspired by @Screwtape. Alliteration later. Hyperbole always. Schafmilch on the weekend. Concise never.

    It's probably the ONLY BARBERSHOP IN THE WORLD that doesn't have Clubman.

    The barber shop got me back into wet shaving. I decided to treat myself to cut and shave. Enjoyed it so much I wanted the experience every day.

    They are trying to attract a younger and hipper crowd so no old man smelling products.

    Instead they carry and use pomades etc. I do see Proraso on the shelf though.
