    Is this basic enough? Home made soap, cheapish boar brush, and a Featherweight? I say it qualifies! IMG_20190609_080337_151.jpg

    Sample Sunday!

    Good morning!

    Terrific shave to start the day! Three passes for near BBS. Faint tickle from the alum.

    I did a much better job with the HA shave cream this morning. I skipped the bowl and went directly to face lathering. Worked great!

    I have several soap samples to go through, so I think I'll make Sunday's Sample Sunday's for awhile to clear some of them out.

    Have a great day!

    Well, once again we have a survey where who wins it won't be as exciting as potential finishes by OTHER horses. Basic soaps, Basic Razors, Basic Brushes, Straigjt Razors and Cookies&Cream are all bunched together at 24.3. Whole Buncha Stuff has a huge lead, but I won't bring that up because it's just a moot point. Until next time, this is me reporting-however I may bring "FedEx Jeff" in for some training. You know, the man who makes an auctioneer sound boring in comparison. The man who brings together 3 cities to make it sound like one(DallasDetroitDenver). Stay tuned for the fast man!

    It is taking forever for me to adjust to these day shifts. Yup Fuzzy is now day shift scum. Kinda throws things off for a bit.

    I had to say this to you....in the best of faith, of course. I've taken to watching Animal Planet Network, and it's been great. But when they do promos for their The Aquarium episodes, a woman can be heard saying, "Slimy is the new fuzzy".

    You're going to have to be a sharp listener-it takes one second for her to say that :).
