    Good afternoon!

    Early shave, late post.
    Wonderful three passer for near BBS! Light tickle from the alum.

    We had a new TV delivered late yesterday afternoon. The old TV still works fine but at fifteen years old it's pretty outdated. We spent the morning unboxing and setting it up. I cobbled together a built in entertainment center with some oak plywood and trim from Home Depot when we first moved in. The new TV barely fit. I'm going to spend the day watching TV.

    Have a great day!

    Thank you, Jeff! This razor was my first SE razor. It gave a great shave from the start.

    Trying to keep up can become your taskmaster. I give it my best and move on.

    Well, Paul, I checked the instructions. These terms appear to describe wrong ways of putting the baby to bed. :D

    Blood on Steel (Tsuka) became my favorite flavor. I love how the complex aroma changes throughout the day. What I don't like with soooooo many of my fragrances is wearing a mask over them. BoS still gets the nod on the days I don't go out.

    Also popular from 2019 meet-up, a nice brush from Jason with the AP flat top. A very soft feel that gives wonderfully fine suds.

    I never really took the time learn how to use the Edwin Jagger DE89. While using the no-bar DE-Vette by Tom, I was able develop better sensations for angle and blade feel. A good shave it was, and I still maintain that this tool, being mild, is difficult to master.

    Good day my friends, be well.
