    Thank you, Terry. We moved our Aunt to a rehab facility today. She'll be there for a few days and then hopefully she'll go back home.

    It can be done. Tedious, but easily possible.

    Check back after your 250th. You'll get it. FWIW, you're doing quite well at fifty shaves. :)

    I was disappointed, after it’s reputation I expect something extreme. I did not hate it but it’s not something I would buy or wear. Not offensive but nothing special.

    New blade today! Super smooth results. Currently 81f (27 Canadian), with a blizzard coming in the morning. Other than a bomb cyclone...all is quiet in Colorado.

    Have a great evening and a pleasant Wednesday!

    A couple of months ago, there were lots of places I couldn't get smooth. Baby steps.

    The edge on the blade is more important than the razor, but some razors are easier for me to handle.

    When I have time and in front of a keyboard I’ll try and explain the technique I use for my neck. It took me a long time to figure it out. Stay tuned.

    jluc smelling pretty

    I was thinking that there's no way it could be as bad as some of the comments on it so I had try for myself. Curiosity killed the cat, which coincidentally, dead cat may one of the ingredients. I found it to be pretty bad.

    Ok, how about a monyhly award for, you should have known better!
    We can call it the "Wile E. Coyote Super Genius" award.
    Well if there was such a thing, I have an entry.
    Not feeling up to speed Monday morning and having 2 days of growth, I wanted a nice super clean shave. Well I stumbled around in the dark for a light switch and finaly found it.
    My mind was uh, blurry, like my eyesight because of some meds I took the night before to help my clogged up breathing system. Thinking "good shave" I grabbed for the razor that I knew would fill the bill my MMOC loaded with a pesonna GEM blade. I showered then stired up some bay rum soap and was ready for some hard core beard reduction. Not having my glasses on,after the first pass I felt the face and thought, one more time! Man it seemed great, I was kinda rough, the meds were still dragging me down but... it seemed so nice! So......
    I... did... a third pass! See the medication for my chest and airway do have an affect on the feeling of pain, to a point. After the third pass I noticed that my neck was a little red, not in the mind of worry..

    I have this new bay rum after shave splash from stirling see... first time to use it and....


    Yowwwwwwwww! Ouch!!!
    Man I felt that ouch! ouch! ouch!...
    Burn....burn....oh dear!!

    After the "burn" I slothered on some stirling balum.
    After the glasses were put on, I saw the neck area was classic razor burn.
    I did not need a 3rd pass, but I did it anyway.

    So this morning, a one pass shave, I am fine with that till I feel better!
    The after shave splash was not so bad!
