    Here I am again after a blizzard of epic proportions has flooded the plains: rescue teams wander lost in search of survivors, nature has returned to the days of glaciation, services are minimal, when functioning (no difference from when the sun is shining and it's 26° C), the feeling of isolation is broken only by the footprints of wild animals roaming the fields in search of food and shelter.
    You can see the footprints of buffalos, foxes, crows, Andrei (my neighbor who is neither wild nor looking for food and shelter)...

    The situation is desperate!
    But it's not because of the weather. It is because of an incompetent government.
    What does this have to do with the weather?
    Nothing, but it's worth remembering!

    Shave? As usual, what the heck!
    You thought I had an epiphany just because of foamy stuff on my face and a metal tool?
    Come on...

    Razor: Yaqi V2 Excalibur AC 50mm, excellent tame mid range, good design, top cap needs to be manually aligned to safety bar, excellent shave results and very enjoyable to operate IMO. No issues, assemble and disassemble over a wash cloth because head parts are small & works the best IMO.
    Blade: Schick Proline p30 AC 50mm, sharp & Smooth with reasonable longevity. Great blade.
    Soap: Razorock Lavender [​IMG], nice masculine scent with excellent lather qualities.(misted)
    Brush: Yaqi Chianti's 24mm synthetic, excellent lather generator, heavenly cloud like soft tips, luxurious scrub feel + excellent painter.
    Pre shave: Brush wash whole face with CeraVe hand bar cleanser + a dollop of clear Aloe Vera gel on the cleaned beard area.
    Prep: cold water rinse after each pass of 2 + pickups.
    Post shave: Razorock King Louis Lavender with witch hazel + a dollop of CeraVe moisturising lotion(balm) + scentless.
    Results: CCS,DFS,BBS + no irritation + 1 blemish weeper= [​IMG]excellent shave with my Yaqi V2 Excalibur + a Schick P30.

    I wonder if Paul McCartney might sue Noble Otter for using a soap/A,S. with the same name as a song he did with the Beatles.(..."Treat me like you did the night before").
