    Nice travel set up, Jim. Safe travels if you are leaving today.

    Interesting comments on the soap, Charlie. As far as ‘wet earth’ goes, I’d recommend Autumn Glory by Stirling. Very nice. Jeeves Mountain Rain isn’t horrible either.

    What do you think of that DS cosmetic brush, Gary? I had one of theirs in a fan that was too short lofted... Good evening, sir.

    Frankly, yes. Two really bad forest fire years in the last three. Any precipitation this spring will be welcomed.

    Interesting. Is this one only for West Coast Shaving? Is this their first non-dupe besides their unscented menthol?

    Nice pic, Andrew.Is that RR soap a tallow version? Their tallow version seems to do ok for me.

    That is a good looking lather, Tim. In general, I try to eliminate under-loading from the equation. I don’t think over-loading is even a problem...

    Longines/Wittnauer used to be the same company, Paul, and then were bought by Bulova quite a few years ago.

    Thanks Jason! :D

    I agree. Soap lasts forever anyway (if I recall correctly, didn't you spend much of last month chipping away at a deceptively almost-finished tub of Soap?) ;)

    you are right, casual Friday.

    Chasing money only is a route to unhappiness. I am sure you daughter is precious and your decision was truly a manly one.

    It was made by a TSD member Tom White, it has a TGN knot. @twhite
