    My Bride saw a significant improvement in a couple of key metrics we're monitoring during her first chemo cycle, and the side effects have been manageable. I'm working on an Excel spreadsheet for the Mayo Clinic trip. Believe it or not, the doc stated in one of his videos that he loves engineers (who doesn't, right? RIGHT????) because they show up for their consults with prior test results presented graphically. The timeline is next. ;)

  7. I learned my lesson, Rick. The next time our paths cross, I won't leave you stranded on your bike in the desert.
  8. Thank you Joe.

  9. That is great news Charlie. I’m not an engineer but I certainly have the excel tendency.

    Good afternoon, guys!
    Straight Razor Shave #126
    30 Same Straight Razor/ Setup Challenge #16
    Wostenholm 5/8 Full Hollow Sq Pt
    Stirling Boar Brush
    Stirling Sandalwood SS and AS
    Nivea ASB not pictured
    I had a very nice IBSS++ using only 2 passes on 32 hr stubble. Minor weeps and no irritation were part of shave. Finished with the Stirling Sandalwood AS and the Nivea balm. Face and skin look marvelous! Have a fine Saturday afternoon and evening, guys! 20191120_202559.jpg 20191120_202559.jpg

  17. Thanks, Jim! It has been an interesting and fun ride so far. This challenge is very nostalgic to me because I am using a 100 yr old straight with the same soap and brush just like men did in the early 20th Century.

  18. I would like to thank the gentleman who made these last few weeks nice. I haven't had time to properly give them the thanks they deserve.
