Now, out of all this stuff, what can we break off and start a Canada Bawx?

I will leave the sign up list open for another few days while I dig through The Stryker Den and find more stuff to seed the box with.

 

Jeff, I see some good things I'm already interested in. I might be a little piggy when I get the Box. I also have tons of good stuff to send. Would there be an interest in shave ready str8's (my honing isn't perfect, but it's good enough for me), good d/e's and some nifty shaving items,. I'm thinking that I'm not shy and may take lots. out of the box, but I'll put lots in. This is gonna be fun. I can't wait. Hopefully we can get more den members in on this round.

 

I would love to do this again if there is still room for one more. I will send a PM.

 

I, for one, would love to get my hands on another straight razor...I'm sure others would as well.

 

Happy Friday From Florida!

Okay, we have enough peeps on the list, so I am closing the enrollment on round three. In no particular order, here are the round three players:

Brian
MikekiM
Fishcrow
Otherstar
M0j0j0eman
¢orey
Nick A (on hold)
Blazeadam
Newb
Etoyoc
SharpSpine
Dougr
Rodd
Williams Warrior
Trainer7
Byrd

I will meet up with Williams Warrior tomorrow since he is local and let him make his trades. Then I will add a few items, post the contents and pix and decide on the rotation and fire the box off Monday October 17th.

 

Go BAWX Go!

 

Come to Papa.

 

Daddy needs some new shave stuff!

 

Jeff-rocks

 

Uh oh, did the band adjustments from the watch I put it not make it? I see the box for it is missing. Hopefully not, i'm about 5"8" or so and 180 lbs and unless you're that, the watch might not fit without those adjustments.

 

The extra links are in there I saw them yesterday.

 

Okay Ya'll! My original plan for this round was to spell TSD on the map as the box made the rounds, but it was not working out, so I plugged everyone into the Random.org randomizer. So here is how the 2011 Round Three Grab Bag will roll:



The pic is fairly small, so here is the distribution list in print:

Rodd
Byrd
M0j0j0eman
Otherstar
Brian
Etoyoc
Dougr
Fishcrow
Trainer7
MikeikM
Blazeadam
Newb
¢orey
SharpSpine

I met up with Williams Warrior yesterday and he traded 100 Shark Blades for the Old Spice cream and the Nivea Cool Kick ASB.

BG and I took nothing out of the box this round. We need to thin the den a bit, so we added:

TSD Soaps:

Iced Sweet Tea
Pumpkin Delight
Cherry Cheesecake
Irish Spring Type

TSD Aftershave's:

Bergamot
Gucci Por Homme Type
Green Irish Tweed Type
Lemon & Cedarwood
Monkey Farts
Pink Grapefruit ASM

Burt's Bees Bay Rum Soap

Russian Green Apple Shave Cream

Schick Krona

2x Boar Brushes

Lolita Lempeka Body Lotion

Not pictured - 3x tri-blade disposables, 5-pack of Derby 3-blade carts, Schick Quattro handle





Okay, so the deal is that the box goes to Rodd first. When Rodd gets the box, he will send a PM to Byrd asking for his shipping info, and once Byrd gets the box he will PM M0j0j0eman asking for his shipping info, and so on, and so on, and so forth.

At each point in the transfer from one person to the next, the current box holder needs to post in this thread that they have received the box, post a picture of the box (if you have a digital camera) post a list of what they take out of the box and what they put in the box and also post the tracking number for the out-going shipment.

If for any reason the person who is next on the list does not respond to the request for shipping info within FIVE DAYS, then the current box holder will contact the next person on the list. I believe this a change that is fair to everyone so that we can keep the box moving in a timely manner. If you are on the list, you need to be committed enough to TSD that you visit the TSD site on a daily basis.

Once SharpSpine receives the box, he will send it back to me to prepare for round four.

Bawx, Bawx, Bawx! Goooooooooooo BAWX!

 

We going to mess with post cards again seeing that they keep vanishing? I don't mind, but if they are just going to vanish...

 

Yeah, I dunno what happened to them all. I have asked a couple of times but got zero answers. Perhaps I did not elucidate properly; they were to stay in the box.

Soooo, if all Ya'll want to drop a post card in the box; we would be much obliged.

 

WooHoo! I'm last. All that is in the box when it gets here is mine, mine, mine....

Oh wait, you mean it doesn't just stay here when finished? Well then, I guess I'll send it back to Jeff so long as there will be a BAWX V.4!

 

Awesome! Looking forward to it! I will start looking through my stuff tonight.
