    Thanks Jeff!
    If you have seen me post, I truly hate shaving, I know, I know.....
    But it's a chore that became such a drudgery. I think I found my niche, strange, weird looking old pieces of plastic, baklite, or metal stamped, twisted or molded into somthing some called a safety razor.
    Thr collection is growing, yes.
    I gave a guy an offer on another tool of destruction so low that it should have been quickly ignored. But.... I have another one on the way, he agreed to the price.
    Well......
    Shave on!

    Great looking shave and photo, Jim. Love how the light plays off the brush handle and AS--definitely a nice touch :)

    Yes Jason we are lucky to have so much talent down this way. Cape Breton is full of artists and rich music . Then you have Hank Snow and many others from Nova Scotia alone . Many think Tom Conners is from Skinners Pond, PEI as he sometimes claimed but he's actually from Saint John ,N.B. The story around here is he came from about 20 miles from where I live and ended up in Saint John later . We also have a friend of mine Jason Barry that has played with Shania, Dean Brody and the likes . He went from being our little league pitcher to a country star. Crazy eh?
    Dont know if you're aware but John from Spirit of the West sadly passed away 2 months ago. He finally went home for a rest God Bless him!

    Terry, you aren't alone. That guy in the gym who has that tremendously long beard has to hate shaving by now. And now his hair-size is almost as long(past his shoulders). He'd resemble a bear, except for the fact that bears have 4 feet and we don't.

    Thanks, Joseph! It was never my top tier scent, but I was able to grow into it. It no longer is being produced, so it will be gone forever when I completely use it.

    Joe, I know you wrote that for Joseph, but I must admit I got confused seeing that you shaved with Glastonbury. I thought you didn't care for that one.

    It's the same for me--especially on the neck, which is all over the map. No biggie if you know what your beard is doing ;)

    To be honest, I keep my shorts on when I go to the shower and put them back on when I leave the shower stall. I am very modest when it comes to the gym. I wish other men would do the same, especially men that are their 70's and above. I went to Catholic school before I went to public school in 7th Grade. It was in public school that I was first exposed to public showering after gym. I didn't like it, but I got used to it.

    Thanks Paul.
    I hate a beard more than I hate shaving (is that possible???). The darn thing never softens, and it grows straight out, makes me look stupid.
    So......
