    I’ve never used any Gillette from the New Improved era. They look great though.

    Thanks Gary. I took quite a few photos on the ship with vintage shave gear staged in various areas. I was probably the only guy that day stopping to take photos of the barber shop, bunk areas, and the commissary. It was a cool day. I had toured battleships before, but this was my first sub tour. The quarters were kinda tight (I could see where it would bother some people to spend time on a sub), but it was quite interesting. I only banged my head one time (that was enough) trying to get through one of the doors between compartments.

    Thank you, Andrew! I don't know what we'd do without our hometown oncologist. He's a brilliant guy, and he hugs Kathy and tells her he loves her. I communicated with him a few times over the summer while we were at the Mayo Clinic. He wanted me to keep him updated, and he was clearly concerned and wanted to help in any way he could. We think the world of him.

    Can’t wait to hear your thoughts Gary, congrats!

    Very cool Myles, thank you for your dedication and service!

    Great first outing with the Blackbird Danny! I think the flat surface behind the blade edge helps create a bit of ‘sticktion’ resistance. I’ve noticed this with a couple DEs and one SE. I think I saw Clint mentioned a slight angle change helps without affecting efficiency. Works.

    Great looking everything Joseph, still love that WR. AOS sandalwood...you, and I think Keith & Clint have secretly enabled me to a recent purchase. A sale purchase I did via one of the mega stores arrived yesterday....but they pulled the travel kit instead of the tub of cream. Had to return...:angry032:

    That is a gorgeous image and setup Gary!

    Very nice Andrew! WSP Olympus....hmm.

    Super fun image Pierpaolo! Had a Futur for a bit. The top cap just a bit too much for my nose shadow area. Slippery even with dry hands is being a nice description...

    Great combination Joe!

    I may have to check it out again, Joe. It would be nice to have AV when I'm using my birth year razors. It just seems like they would go well together.

    Thank you, Jim. That means a lot to both us. :)

    We've been giggling the last few days that her hair is starting to grow again...but mine is not. ;)

    We're starting up a couple of small home projects (she loves this stuff), and she is getting excited. That makes me happy. Special times, for sure.

    Great setup and results Joe!

    Cool shave Evan! Always love that Stirling MM label. Enjoy the time away and off the grid. Ain’t nothing wrong with it being comfortable!

    Thanks Blair!
    I don't think I give Tom @twhite enough credit.
    I wish he made a few to share.
    Menacing???
    I think it looks sleek.
    To think, it's just a guest here.

    That’s rare to see that level of sincere care from a doctor. Y’all are lucky to have him in your corner.
