    Great Proraso Green shave Joe!

    Fun read Bill! Have heard good things about Crescent City Razors. Haven't been a customer yet.

    Hopefully they'll be (the New Orleans area) spared the worst of the storm, as Hurricane Laura plodding towards Lake Charles area. Anyone heard from @RyX lately?

    Very nice, Pierpaolo!
    Thanks, Joe!
    Great report, Joseph!
    Enjoy your breakfast with Joe!

    I met Andrew @Linuxguile for lunch a couple of times when he worked up north here. I gave him a bottle of the Veg, he shortly after quit his job and never came back. Maybe coincidence, maybe not.

    Sorry about the rough shave, Paul. Tomorrow's will be TOTWE!
    Thanks, Blair!
    Great picture, Evan!
    Looking good, Bill! Congrats on the new rock!
    Same thing happened to me when trying the email route.
    Hopefully he'll have his site up soon.

    A very nice 2 pass'er this morning. Pulled out the excellent MonoBilt and enjoyed an Old Spice dupe shave. Had a few minutes delay after I started the first stroke and realized there was no blade in there. Headed to the cache and the PermaSharp got its number called. Always a good choice.
    I'm not completely smooth, but it was more than acceptable for 2 passes.
    Have a great day all!

    I forgot! You are from that general area. I should have just asked if you could spare a small piece of wall from one of the razor storage vaults.
    :cool:

    Very nice, Jason!
    I haven't done the no blade thing yet, but I have loaded an AC blade backwards. I now always wear my readers when loading a blade.

    Thanks, Blair. I've never had an issue with the Personna blades - plus I've already had several good shaves on this particular blade too. It just needs changing. When I get closer to needing a resupply on injector blades, I may look at other brands though. You never know until you try, right?

    What a great looking combo, Jim. Love the shape and lines of that brush, and that razor has always had such a cool look.

    Very nice, Clint. Hubby points are always a good thing. So are separate bank or credit card accounts...:happy097:

    Great job all week with the Felce, Pierpaolo. If I was forced to pick one, I'd say it is my favourite scent in wetshaving. You have inspired me for tomorrow.

    A great looking lather indeed, Joseph. I hear what you're saying, usually more water is the answer, so it is less common to find soaps that work well with less.
