  2. Wonderful picture, Jim! Yet another PAA offering that has piqued my interest.
    Congrats on the new brush!
    I'm a fan of Grizzly Bay brushes, and the knots he uses are fantastic.

  4. Interestingly, even though the ringleader of the anti cookie group was in attendance, there was no ice cream. I am now officially calling the ice cream as fake propaganda that doesn’t exist.

  7. In my defense, he didn’t shut me up for long. And he conceded that a mix of Texas, St. Louis, and Kansas City style BBQ like I make sounds awesome.

  13. Doesn't the Golden Corral have a soft serve operation?
  14. Thanks, Clint. I am doing well. Just wish I was at the Meet Up this weekend instead of pulling a 6pm Friday to 6pm Sunday shift answering phone calls from arrested drunks...

    To Neal @NCoxSTL and everyone at the Meet Up, it looks like you're having a great time so far. Keep it up and do keep posting the reports and photos so the rest of us can enjoy it vicariously!
  15. I was loaded up this morning! Beautiful brush made by @jtspartan. @Keithmax arrived bearing gifts, a pain stick with Feather Professional blades and a beautiful fan, hand delivered from Seoul! @NCoxSTL provided Stirling gift certificates, "Lynn Abrams World of Straight Razor Shaving" DVDs, which will come in handy now that I have a straight from @Drygulch, and let's not forget the cookies. @ezlovan supplied the 2019 Blood on Steel soap and aftershave sets. He even made sure my wife got a set too!
    The best part was meeting up with a wonderful group of people that I already knew as friends! [​IMG]
