Veddy nice, Rick!

I was cruising on the website and couldn't help gifting myself, Paul. I'm a Stoylin fanboy wannabe. Actually, I have used the Sheep Soap (makes a wonderful pre-shave facial soap), and I'm curious about the Executive Man scent since it is supposed to be similar to Creed Aventus. That scent happens to be the top seller.

Thank you Terry.

Thanks, Jason! That's good to know.

Excellent setup and photo, Mark!

Thanks Clint. I'll keep you in mind. What were we talking about?

Thank you Perry!

Great looking photo Mark.

Thanks Paul. I also like the Slims, Fatboys, and Trac II's since I remember my Dad using them. My Dad kept his shaves simple...one pass using whatever soap was sitting on the sink and never any aftershave. I remember him telling me once about a guy who served with him in the Army that performed two pass shaves. This seemed waaaaay over the top the first time I heard about it.

Thanks Jim. Will do. I've had some success converting a few guys so far.

Will do, Terry. They'll get some of each...just adds to the coolness factor of traditional shaving to have gear from Russia and Japan. Additionally, they'll be able to eventually compare platinum vs. Teflon coated blades...after their 30 Day Rule.

I'd send you some Feathers, but I'm just about out of them myself. I have maybe 600. How can you sleep (or manage to shave next week) until you get more?

That's awesome, Paul. Choosing to be joyful is definitely the way to live.

Nice shave and setup, Paul!

Thanks Jason. It would be impossible to out give some of my 30 DC brothers. I know this guy who comes home after long days tending to dumpster fires just to turn brush handles and shave bowls for other people. He's either very generous or over caffeinated and can't sleep.

Quite a gesture, Charlie! You made some good choices. Those converts will have some wonderful gear.

Happy Birthday (a day early) to @Primotenore. How do I know his big day is tomorrow? Well, he shares a birthday with Heather Locklear, Catherine Zeta-Jones, and me. Let's just say that September 25 is a banner day for good looks...not to mention Senior Day at Piggly Wiggly.

I also celebrate my fifth TSD anniversary on September 28. It has been a fun ride, and I've met some incredible people during my time here. Thank you for putting up with me. If you speak to the folks that have blocked my posts, please give them my best wishes too.

It's already 25th over here, so happy birthday to both of you!

Happy Birthday a Day early Charlie.

You joined TSD a few days before I did. My 5 year anniversary is coming up on Oct 1.
