    Well, as I stated after the championship round on New Year's., it will be possible for previous nominations to be "re-nominated" in future Tonys.

    Gillette English/French Tech Razor
    Personna Platinum Chrome (Israeli Red) Blade
    Semogue Excelsior Boar Brush
    Vintage Klar Shave Soap
    Dickinson's Witch Hazel
    Aqua Velva Musk After Shave

    I haven't used a Tech in a while, and decided to use the one I got today. While I don't have a scale, the head does seem slightly heavier than a US Tech. Loaded it with an Israeli Red and during the first pass, I knew it was going to be smooth sailing. Two passes with some touch up yielded a very smooth and comfortable BBS shave.

    Gillette 7 O'Clock PII Trac II
    Personna Twin II Plus Cartridge (2)
    Neutrogena Men Sensitive Skin Shave Cream
    Unrefined Shea Butter
    Focus detour # 2


    I enjoyed a quick two-pass travel shave this morning for a near-BBS result. I worked in the Neutrogena Shave Cream with my fingers after washing my face. It provides a lot of slickness but not much protection. For that reason, I use it only when I'm traveling with my Trac II and need a quick shave. I'm still fairly smooth 9+ hours later.

    My Bride and I just got home from an overnight retreat with our weekend Bible study group. I hope you all are having a relaxing weekend.

    Thank you, Brian. We had a group of about 40, and we stayed here. It was our first retreat, and we've already decided to have another one in the fall. I hope you and your Bride find an opportunity to get away together soon. :)
