    I finished up my July focus today. It will be hard putting this gear away, as I've enjoyed some fantastic two-pass shaves over the past month. Tomorrow I'll bring out a birth quarter Slim, a tuck of Feathers, and my Kent BK8 silvertip brush. I'll continue to work through a tub of C.O. Bigelow and a bottomless bottle (pit :)) of Clubman.

    I've got watch fever now that @NCoxSTL decided to take the plunge. I don't want to steal his thunder, so I'll stay away from timepieces featuring Russian military hardware on the dial. This model is currently on the radar, but I'm still looking. I enjoy looking and researching the different models most of all, so I expect this process to take awhile. It wouldn't hurt my feelings if I caught one on sale, or if the USD/JPY currency conversion becomes more favorable. In the meantime, anyone know where I can register for a Japanese language class so that I'll know what day it is?

    We're meeting some good friends today at a Fish Fry at local Masonic lodge. I weigh just a tad below my target for the first time (199 lbs.), so I won't be watching the calories too closely today. My lunch will look something like this:

    It appears that these folks have been doing this for awhile. After completing a 100-year focus, I think they have it down. They serve every Saturday from March through November. It's one of our favorite places to eat in Louisville. We've been going since the 80s...back when I still had my hair and my sense of humor.

    Great shave, Charlie! That fish looks good and is making me hungry. We are just about to start this training, which doesn't have any food, so now I have to wait to eat until lunch.
