    It's too simplistic to compute height and weight for every human. Insurance companies (I'm looking at you, METLife) perpetuate the myth. According to BMI charts people like Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson are obese.

    Thank you Gentlemen! The shave was on par. The vehicle issues are solved by throwing money at the problem.
    Sigh, I hear you Jim. Knowing how to, and wanting to spend the time doing it are two different things. Us shade tree mechanics will fade away as these vehicles become less user reparable. It's balanced by their better quality and longer time between service needs. I've always owned used vehicles because the repairs cost less that new car payments and full coverage insurance. Getting to the point where I'd like to spend less time repairing.
    Nice! I've got a shaded flat concrete driveway that serves. Can't get to my too skinny garage for a couple vehicles I've been "storing" for a neighbor that moved away. Time for him to get his junk out so I can reach my facilities.
    Isn't that the truth! The price we pay for not shoveling snow. ;)

    Nice to be back in my own den after a week away. Pulled out some faves, as I am currently without focus. The Fine soap produced its usual excellent lather- it just takes awhile to get it where I like it. The MonoBilt then mowed through 72 hours of growth with ease. I am very smooth, albeit a little raw feeling for whatever reason. A super start to the week, one that will have me in the office all week it appears.
    Have a great day, all!

    Thanks, Rick. We moved from a house with an undersized one car garage. The garage in the new house was my number one priority.
    Thank you, Bill. The Chevelle and the Z06 next to it were my bucket list cars.

    Sounds like a rough weekend Neal, glad you are going to get dinner time off!
    Fantastic shave Patrick!
    Beautiful setup Keith!
    Great shave Rick! Sorry to hear you are still have troubles with the truck.
    Very nice Terry!
    I've always been curious about THB sets. Lovely presentation at the very least. Cool brush too!
    Great shave Jim! A Rocnel adjustable? When did you score that beauty? Sorry to hear that you had to spend the day wrenching under the hood in the heat, hope you got to relax a little afterward.
    Beautiful shot Clint!
    I hope the shave was great Perry! Nice photo too! It is nice to get back to a routine but also a bummer at the same time. Hope you had a great summer!
    Beautiful shot Mark!
    Jason! Love seeing your MonoBilt, man it looks great!

    Stirling Mentholated Pre-Shave Soap
    EDRIO #90 Superior LC
    Gem Stainless PTFE
    WWB Green Pearl (26mm Maggard SHD Fan, Frigate Class)
    Stirling Kaboom soap and AS

    Wonderful shave to start the day. Face lathered the Stirling Kaboom with the softest badger knot I own. Worked in water until I was flinging lather across the room, then I knew it was ready. Went to work with the old lather catcher and enjoyed the sound of buttering toast as I wiped away the whiskers. Three smooth passes ended with a BBS finish. A couple of sprays of the Kaboom AS and I'm smelling great and oh so smooth! Have a great day my friends!
