    Great video as always, and congrats to Ms. 0228 for her citizenship. I remember on an Election Day of a few years ago, telling a foreigner who lives in my bldg., "Don't forget to vote today" and she said "I can't, I'm not an American citizen".(I had thought she became one) About the shave, do you find it any easier to load the brush holding the soap from the side? I've never tried that.

    I really do like this scent, lol. Even my wife liked it which is always a bonus, haha! YMMV is an understatement in this hobby and I can understand why some don't like it. What's the "30 DC" group? I'll check it out

    @Gnomeo0228, The 30 Day Rule/Focus Group on TSD is a forum where each month a new rule or focus comes into play to improve one's technique. This month was Arko/Adjustable April. The rule or focus was to use Arko or any adjustable in your den or both. Now, the theme is just a suggestion. You can make up your own rule or focus, but if you do, then you should commit to it for the month. However, this is not written in stone. You can do whatever you want, it is your shave! We have men who mainly use safeties, single edge and straights with different levels of experiences ranging from newbies to veterans. We are here to share info and encourage one another so that everyone improves their technique, discover new products, etc. To find us on TSD, go under forums and find April 2019 30 day Focus/Rule. One more thing, you can come and go as you please, but you will find that we are a great bunch of guys.

    Uh Ladies&Gentlemen:

    Just a friendly reminder that the two choices I make for a Stoylin Tony Award nomination could be ANY combination-that is, not just soap&A.S. I believe I made this announcement during the initial Tonys last year, but I just wanted to bring it up again. See ya May 1 for Nomnation #2. :).

    First use of Deep Blue Sea this morning. What a great scent! Performance was outstanding as expected.

    I called an audible at my Sink Line Of Scrimmage this morning and went with the DBS sampler. It's a nice one all right.

    I haven't heard from @john zeiger in a long time. Hope he's OK.

    @Paul Turner, he liked post # 8034 on Saturday, so I assume that he is ok.

    I just got back from a fairly lengthy vacation where I did not have good internet accessibility. Now that I''m back I'll be hanging around my favorite thread (this one). Looking forward to Paul's next Stoylin announcement.

    Well THAT was clever research. By the way, the Caps get your guys next(provided they win tonight or the final game of the current series. )
