  5. 20190617_012425.jpg Basic no bones shave before bed . Mentally exhausting day. Still missing my Dad. We BBQ'd, my youngest daughter and I played catch, visited Mother then went to Dad's grave. Doesn't get any easier as the years pass. He was an incredible man.

  6. Blair, I figured since I'm fairly good with a 1/2 DE blade shavette (No blade end guards type) I ought to not back slide into a safety shavette type blade. Gotta keep moving forward. Daughter has used a Schick Hydro Magic injector, but doesn't like DE. I'm not even going to suggest she try an open blade, she'll have to ask.
    Thanks Patrick!

  7. Good to see you making progress with the pain stick. It's fun to read this because I've spent so much time today looking over Boris's shoulder trying to find the first mention of that term. April 2015 - we should rename that Bloody April. Adam and I were both learning pain sticks. I believe he was actually in his second month, but he only shaved every other day so same number of shaves by the end of April. We both had some bloody messes. April 8, 2015, post #211 - my entire report was a shot of Sweeney Todd with a bloody razor and my full report was "That is all". I remember that shave. Cut myself every time I moved it. Good times! And now we have a bunch of new guys on the pain stick learning curve. Makes me feel like a proud papa.

  16. Thanks Blair. Deciding what kind of feedback to leave was challenging. 1) I got an amazing price. 2) Product was exactly as described 3) Seller did ship quickly. 4) Product arrived safely.
    I left positive feedback, but in the comment section I mentioned only the shipping bait & switch.
