February 2019 30 Day Rule/Focus Pix & Discussion

Thanks Clint. Painters are working now. We met with them a couple of days ago, and we meet with a gent today on shelves, mirrors, and shower doors. Lots of small details right now.

I'm glad you made it safely to Tempe. Enjoy your weekend with Asha.

 

I was one of the testers their soaps during development. The scent strength was one of the biggest complaints. Glad to hear they ramped it up.

Thank you, Jim!

 

Thank you, gentlemen!

 

Thank you Charlie. Asha is working with her clients all day. We are going out to dinner tonight. Planning on going to Tucson Sunday morning to tour the Desert Museum with Mark.

The other day I said that I have yet to make a shave brush look like an ice-cream cone. Well,. today I very nearly succeeded. The Chiseled Face soap(GTB)jumped onto the brush, making the latter look like a magnet. It all led to a nice shave..one of those "Gee, who needs a second pass, but ahhh I'll do it anyway" shaves. Good way to get a Friday going . The aftershave of same name fimished things off well.

Charlie, I recall the days when my Mom's house was being extended(that isn't the right word, but more was being added to it). She'd come over to it and sort of stand at the driveway like a statue, overlooking(and admiring)the work.

 

SuperSpeeds are some of the underappreciated gems of the Gillette family. Everybody chases Fatboys and the other adjustables and we sing their praises, while the SuperSpeeds do nothing except provide great shaves day after day. Simple, not the most aggressive razor but not the mildest either, and they just do their job. I've always wanted to try out a Red Tip since they are the only one of the three 50's razors that has a different gap on top of their added weight. The Blue Tip and Flare both have the same gap with the Blue weighing 16 grams less. The Red Tip is 12 grams heavier than the Flare and has a bigger gap as well. Should be a great shaver!

 

Gorgeous picture Mark. You have that soap on the run.

What mythical land do you reside in again - the land where meetings can be productive and not a waste of time?! I want to live there. Do they take applications or do you have to be born in this wondrous land to enjoy it? Enjoy the weekend!

 

I switched to night shaving a couple of years ago. I function much better in the dark than in the early morning light, and when I'm trying and testing new and different things I don't have to hurry. Plus I can post my reports on the shaves immediately as I have time. I've always been a night owl/vampire so it just works best for me. Welcome to the midnight shaving club!

 

Haha! It's a meeting of only band directors. We know how to get things done quickly and efficiently.

 

Thanks, Jim!

Rockwell delivered on the 6S and I hope they deliver on the Model T but it sure is taking a while.

 

............like one time at band camp!

 

I hope that my H.S. Band director attended meetings like that, where he could hopefully inspire other BD's with his message of "I have a lot of wiseguys in my band. They probably enjoy playing, but if I catch anyone being out of place, out they go!".

 

Do the painters have radios or tape machines blasting away with music they like?

 

Anyone that teaches my hat it off to you! You are doing a job that I could not do because I would be in jail pretty quick. I just cannot stand kids that are disrespectful. I know not all are like that but the ones that are would try my patience. I just do not know how y'all do it.

 

Lots and lots of patience. Lots of smiling when you want to scream and break things. Self discipline. And bourbon at night.....don't forget that.
