    Great setup and image Jim. Love the Ogallala software!

    Hey!....I have an L1 slim also. It’s actually a birth quarter razor :) Great image and colors. Now that I’ve busted into PAA products, what do you think of their sandalwood fragrance?

    I’m sure the hospital time was quite special! Very nice gear and shave. One of these days I’ll get my storage as neat as some of this group. First step...got a label maker...

    Very classic setup. That brush handle. Cool. And boar...nice!

    Omegas are definitely good. Great shave.

    One time I had too much coconut and rum and ....oh , you're not talking about liquor.

    RyX DoH!

    Thank you Danny & Andrew!
    It was an easy choice. The Stirling is tallow, lanolin & shea butter and they aren't shy about adding plenty of scent. The military sounding soaps could be Soap Commander - veggie soap. Same for Mystic Waters. Those last two are good, but not Stirling good.

    Just the Basics June!!

    What a Wednesday it was. Another round of thunderstorms for STL. The weather continues to be wild and wooly, as was traffic, as was everything around me today. That's ok. We'll just make it a Wooly Wednesday. That means I need some mutton tallow! I was reaching for the Stirling Sheep when I realized that with all of the lightning around today I needed Electric Sheep! The Lemon, Citronella and Eucalyptus blend makes this stand out in a room, and the ultra-creamy and slick lather the mutton tallow base produces will make you cry tears of joy. You might wince at the aroma, but you have to admire the performance.

    Three passes with the Fatboy and Sharp Star and the baby showed up with that after-shave skin feel that is so good I almost feel sheep-ish about talking about it. Almost. Not quite. Great shave, and an end to a day that was profitable even if it was another day of watching rivers rise. Have a great Thursday!
