Are you also puzzled when in detective movies, officers who see a suspect who's going to run away yell "Stop" when they are still 100 meters away and give him a chance to escape?
Maybe the chase is scenic, but the realism...
Or maybe cops like to run.

What about the ones who are chased by a car and try to escape by running in the middle of the road?
Sneaking into parked cars or some alleyway... no, huh?
But maybe they don't know that cars are faster than people.
But... couldn't the director tell them?
Or maybe the director is on the bad guys' payroll...

That's why I put bars on the windows, even though I don't have any corrupted directors among my friends.

Today, since the mild scented soap doesn't interest anyone, I thought I might as well use it.
A reliable gear that made me very smooth!

SOTD SATURDAY, JULY 11, 2020

Today turned out to be Sandalwood, Slim, Straight Saturday to be alliterative. One more day after today of scent freedom before SWMBO returns. So being a nasal barbarian, I decided to pull out all the stops, practically bathe in some of my favorite scents! It’s great; I practically reek, and have no concern for balance or harmony in scent application. I just need to get it out of my system before it’s back to Unscented Purgatory on Monday!

Thw shave went well, DFS++ all around. I used my father’s Gillette Slim opened up all the way for the dome shave and one of the two Custom Damascus straight razors my son gifted me on Father’s Day for the mug. I informed him that the straight razors, and in fact my entire safety razor collection would be returned to him after I leave this realm to make acquaintance with all our dead relatives. I just love it; I feel refreshed, smell like a low rent barbershop with my DFS mug and clean velveteen noggin.

RAZOR: Custom Damascus Straight (Mug), Gillette Slim (Dome)
BLADE: Suneko (2)
PREP: Cold water rinse followed by a scrub with Rabid Banana Preshave Cube
BRUSH: Viking Silvertip Badger
CREAM: TOOBS Sandalwood w/ 6 drops of M-Bomb
POSTSHAVE: Cold water wash with Glyce Glycerin soap followed by Humphreys Lilac WH and Osage Rub. Finished with Royall Lyme AS and Ultimo EdT
