    Awesome shave this morning!

    As I was using the Simpson T3 Trafalgar I was thinking about how Joe @Trigger would really enjoy this brush. The T3 whipped up some luscious Soap Commander that was in Primo territory. Yes Joe, this brush will take your lather to the next level and would make a nice addition to your den.

    The polished aluminum Phoenix Accoutrements DOC on the ATT Calypso handle was a joy to drive this morning. Three wonderful passes with just a hint of alum.

    A little Witch Hazel followed by some American Tobacco by Andy Hilfiger and I am ready for Friday. I'm smooth, smell good and pretty......let's just scratch the pretty part and go with the first two.

    Have a great day gentlemen.

    Link for the T3 is below Joe. I noticed they have went up in price a little but still a great value.
    13 left....better hurry. ;)

    That van looks like the one I remember my Dad's friend having. Same color too. A super cool ride for a college guy!

    My college vehicle was a 1970 2-door Buick LeSabre. Light metallic green with a dark green vinyl top. It was thirsty, but it was fun to drive. Too many donuts in an icy parking lot once cost me a transmission rebuild, though. My buddies called it the Cruisemobile.

    Thanks for the heads up Danny!. I appreciate it, but I have enough brushes. I know when MrEE is settled, that will be having another brush on the way. The T3 is an awesome synthetic brush and it definitely would be a great addition to my den.

    For today's shave, I had the same as yesterday, save for the Jayaruh brush(#59). More continuous swirling action..I guess for me, the more the better, as I can't do the puck like it owes me money. I got a nice amount on the face and neck for the first of my two passes. Lots of astroturf came off...good feeling. Again slowly and carefully across the area of that nasty cut of a few days ago, at NW Porcupine Alley. No problems down at Cactus Nation. Second pass, much of the same results. I did repeat a past mistake of leaving some along the right-side jawline(under the ear). I just went and killed it with the Red Tip(I used the disposeABLE for the shave itself). Super Duper Excellent again. :).

    Fantastic shave, breakfast, and sentiments, Dave.

    The joys of home ownership. Leaking roof, HVAC problems, toilet malfunctions, washing machine not working, frozen pipes, and lawn mower out of service when you have an acre of grass that needed mowing a week ago are some of the most fun things. I hope you get the septic problem corrected soon. Enjoy your day off.

    Thanks Brian. Will do.

    Keep the photos of your sweet grandchildren coming!

    One of our friends nicknamed his granddaughter JujuBean, and it stuck. Granddads rights are outlined in The U.S. Constitution. Of course, your kids rights are covered in The Declaration of Independence. ;)

    February Focus
    [​IMG]
    MWF~~CH2~~Feather AS-D2/Voskhod~~C&S Cuba
    I think I will finish February with the Fat.

    Thus dubbed: "February's Fat Focus"
    All this talk about synthetics inspired me to dig out my CH2, which resides in my dopp kit
    safely stored in a large medicine bottle. Therefore it gets seldom usage.
    This brush'll dig out some soap, mos def©
    MWF really needs to be used frequently, to get the best lather.
    Today's was a bit like cottage cheese, so I massaged it into my face and it came together nicely.
    There isn't a slicker soap on the market, IMO.
    Fresh, Russian steel inserted into the Japanese Stainless Steel razor, afforded me
    with a wonderful shave, without worry.
    Rare use of an aftershave for me these days. Czech & Speake Cuba.
    Notes for my fellow-fragheads:

    jluc smelling pretty

    This is why I would like to add the Dirty Bird travel scuttle. It doesn't look big enough for lather building but I think it would work great as a brush scuttle. On my list for next year.
