    Since this soap now sits out on my counter, it has firmed up significantly.
    I can now safely break out the "soap destroyer".
    The Gem blade was above average, but not as sharp as new.
    Eschewed the final pass and made do with a DFS shave.
    Sticking with the Hawas for the foreseeable future.

    Happy Monday. Weekends are just too short and seem even m0re so when you have holiday on the weekend. At least it was nice seeing some of the extended family. Another fantastic shave to start the week. The soap has around 6 grams remaining so this one should be gone by Wednesday morning. Take care and have a great day. ​

    Course some week-end holidays are "honored" the following Monday or preceding Friday. One exception would be my birthday. If THAT falls on a week-end, that's the holiday!(For me, that is...chuk yuk yuk yuk)

    The Tulip, with its massive 29mm knot really knocked it outta the park. Such luxurious lather has to be experienced by all.
    New Voskhod---double-wrapped, sans glue dots :happy036: gave my kisser a smooth, comfortable shave.
    Some reviewers claim that the Hawas has a bubble gum opening. :signs002: I'm not getting it.
    Maybe I didn't chew the right kind of bubble gum.​

    Paul, Maya's car was totaled and I turned in the rental car. I gave her my 2 year old car and bought myself a new one so all of the drama is over now.

    Happy Tuesday Everyone. It is a rainy messy day here in the ATL. At least I was able to get a great shave in to start the day. I will be working from home this morning and then at a client site this afternoon. Take care everyone and have a great day. ​

    So, the Semogue continues to scritch. Honestly, I don't like scritch. :rolleyes005:
    Luckily the Old Type didn't scratch...:p

    Nice, three-passer with superior results.
    So far, Dr. Mrs. Primo hasn't complained about the Hawas...so...:happy093:

    I returned home Monday, the red-eye flights are exhausting but that is the only option for a direct flight between Phuket and Seoul. So day 1 on my new 3017, Razo Rock The Freedburg. This one is already well along the way so it should be just a couple of weeks to finish it off. Kicked off the 301y with a 8/8 Grim Butcher, Rooney brush and finished with a classic stank, Guerlain Vetiver. An epic shave.

    And what happens in Patong ... well you know. Things have changed, there are lot more dispensaries and fewer lady boys. Thailand is considering reversing the marijuana laws and making it illegal again. They think it is brining in the wrong kind of tourists. I guess they prefer the tourist that come to see lady boys :eek:. Fortunately we stay far away from Patong.
