Saturday, January 21 Day Thirteen La Savonnière du Moulin~~Simpson "Rover"~~dubl duck Goldedge~~Creed Aventus Damn near sliced my right earlobe off this morning. OK, maybe I am exaggerating, but I did draw blood. Keen edge and user-error. Oy Weh! However, all's well that ends well. Smooth face and smelling great.
Beautiful set up, Joseph. You're making great progress on your 3017. I'm glad the injury was minor. Heal quickly, my friend.
I 3017'd a bottle of Fine Platinum aftershave yesterday. Next up is a partial bottle of Fine L'Orange Noir. After this one is gone, I will have worked through my original inventory of aftershave splashes that I hoarded when I first got into traditional wet shaving. I may invoke Special Rule # 17, sect. (3), para. (c)(1)(iv) referring to activities within the Fiscal Year that include approved short-term uses of other aftershaves during a 3017. I claim legal standing, and it would only be done, of course, to advance the science. I've evolved into a fast 'n loose splasher. Flying insects and most people tend to keep their distance from me these days. Sometimes I get lonely, but it allows me to try more aftershaves.
January 21, 2023 Feather Feather MrEE #4 Mithchell’s Wool Fat Proraso Sandalwood AS Happy Saturday morning. I am so happy for the weekend after a very stressful week. It was so bad I didn't make time to get to the post office with Joseph's artist club blade sampler. Another wonderful shave to start the day. I really enjoy this setup. Swati and I are off to visit my mom today. We moved her into assisted living last October. She seems fully settled in and is doing well. I try to take her out to eat at least every other week if not more often. I hope everyone has a great day.
Sunday, January 22 Day Fourteen La Savonnière du Moulin~~DG B14 Washington~~Cobra Classic/Feather Professional Super~~Ogallala Bay Rum, Limes & Peppercorns The Ass Milk performed well right to the end. Last shave with a product never to return to my den. Cue music: "The party's over...it's time to call it a day..." And, as they say in the business:

January 23 - Arko Shave # 43 Executive Summary Epic two-passer 46% of shave stick remaining Also 3017ing the aftershave, allowing for Special Rule # 17 exceptions Have a fantastic day!
I'm not saying that @Primotenore gets a bit dramatic with his SOTD reports (often written in the third person), but I'm reminded of this commercial.
Because the spokesman just happens to have been a superstar amongst entertainers? I am down with that.
Complete random set up today, friends. I think I'll keep you all guessing, but beginning next Monday, I'll begin another 3017...
