You’ve got some impressive straights. Robert Williams, Bruno van Dornan, Charlie Lewis. Excellent makers.

Newly Acquired, Restored(somewhat), and Honed. Super smooth 2 pass shave, that left me BBS. This id the first Tuckmar Razor I've acquired, and I am really impressed. Very hard, steel, that takes a keen, yet buttery smooth edge. Now I get why many of you guys have them.

Razor- Tuckmar, Best Quality. Silver Steel. Solingen Germany
Brush- JR#262 WD Silvertip Badger
Soap- AOS Kingsman. Bourbon scented
Aftershave- Shulton Old Spice. Limited Edition Magic-1870 Decanter. Mmmmm Mmmmm Good.

Yesterday turned into a late skip day. I was tired and decided to take Jennifer out to dinner. For the Meet-Up crew you'll be happy to know that I now have another Cartel approved BBQ!!!

​

I know I've mentioned this one a few times but had never had the chance to try it. I have to say the ribs are EXCELLENT!! And their STL Sweet sauce is perfection in a sauce. They also have plenty of other options. Also feature all kinds of meet, sides, and it's all served on baking trays with butcher paper on them. Quite unique! It's not the classy joint that Hendrick's is in St. Charles, but I'm thinking next time we may have to do a field trip for an extra meal somehow!! Seriously good stuff.

Speaking of all things STL, we now know that the Cardinals will not be in the World Series. Currently 7-1 in the 6th or something like that so the Nats should wrap this up tonight. It's about time. The Blues were perfect until the Cards started losing in the playoffs. Now the Blues have lost two in a row. Get the baseball team put to bed for the winter. It's HOCKEY SEASON!!!

While today is Tuesday I used the MWF to make up for skipping it yesterday. JR54 was magnificent as always in producing an easy and over-abundant lather. I chose the OCMM to continue OCtober. Nice to have a razor good for both SEptember and OCtober. Perfect three pass with a smooth shave, great BBS finish and no blood or other worries. Doesn't get much better than that.

I'm eating and hydrating like crazy tonight. Can't have anything after midnight until after they feed me a scope tomorrow around 1 pm. Pretty sure they won't find anything worth finding and I'll be shrugging this off and moving on. Between this and the MRI I believe the answer to my chronic pain will continue to be -------you tried blowing your pancreas up stupid! Remember that year? Hope your Wednesday is a great one!!

Thanks Gary
