    Up early this morning to send the missus off to work, :happy036:, completed an X3Bar workout and hit the shower followed by a wonderful shave. Below I have the new to the den ColoradoRazorDesigns brush. Scott Kennard does wonderful work.

    The brush whipped up a nice lather sufficient for my three pass shave. The TI, my first straight in my growing collection, performs extremely well. Naturally, part of the improved performance is due to my improved technique with this razor of the past four years. It is my most used razor in my collection. My face is feeling smooth and velveteen.

    Following my shave I had to bring Anthony to his Middle School Orientation Meeting. He had ample practice opening his locker.
    Following the Orientation, I had a number of chores to do on this triple H day.

    I hope you have a nice day gentlemen and stay cool.

  3. Thank you Danny. I do not believe I have used it since Friday. I was away this past weekend, although shortened by Henri.

    I am waiting for information on returning it. I may shave one more time with it and then again I may not. I have missed my straights.
