    Fortunately, I never had the catfight look when using my Dovo shavette. I only have gotten a small boo-boo every so often.

    Coming along very nicely Charlie. Get the formal dining room ready to go and you'll be ready to host a Cartel State Dinner. Borscht, onions, pickles, canned fish mouths and lots of vodka. Now THAT'S a party!

    You might be surprised how many people read all the way to the bottom. We're interested, and it sometimes provides great information to file away for future, um, discussions.

    He may be trying to fool the Cartel group making them think you will be eating the peoples food, when in fact you'll really be having steak. :)

    Since the cold has really set in here in St. Louis I have been getting really lazy on shaving as much, being that I work outdoors and our current job site is in the flatlands of Sauget Illinois on the side of route 3.

    This was my setup for Friday evening

    I had a fairly good shave with a few weepers, I had adjusted the wetness of the lather a few times because it seemed like the razor was sticking. It’s the first time I had used a shave stick, but I was very surprised with how much lather it makes I only did two passes but there was enough for at least three more. The only issue I had was lathering for the second pass I was noticing a slight burning, which I haven’t had with any of the other soaps I have used. I’m not sure if it’s the soap, the amount I started out with, or if it’s just due to the longer than usual time between shaves. So I plan to use it again for this evenings shave to be sure of what is causing the irritation.

    You may be allergic to the soap.
