    Robert, what's your connection to Malawi? We know some wonderful folks that served as medical missionaries there, and I am fascinated with the stories I've heard about the county and its culture.

    Thank you Jim. The flooding situation is very bad. Not for us as we are on high ground. Calling for more rain tomorrow. I couldn't fill sand bags, so I brought the people that were Tim Horton's coffee and Tim Bits.

    Congratulations Perry! I'm really glad to hear you all found a house. Things are moving quickly for you guys. I'm glad things are falling (rushing :)) into place.

    True enough. I like using it, but this one really was probably unused when I bought it. I had a couple user grade ones and nicer in the past and let them go when the price spiked. With so many experienced or refurbished razors out there, I have a hard time using it more than I do. After each use, I clean, dry, and polish it before it goes back in the case. I doubt I have a dozen shaves on this one in the last few years.

    Recap on the month
    I learned my blackbeauty set on 9, learned to shave my head with a DE, started to learn how to face lather.

    Also spent a bunch of time talkin to you fine folks here.
    I can't wait to see what next month has in store!
    Great month of shaves fellas!

    Use it, take care of the case and boxes and it won't lose value and you will get some enjoyment.

    It aint so, Joe. There's nothing inherently aggressive about open combs. Merkur open combs are actually milder than their safety bar siblings.

    Nice shave and photo, Stephen. I have the bath soap in that scent and it smells very good!
