  1. What is Glacial Black Tuxedo?

    Is it Glacial Eskimo Tuxedo or is it Glacial Obsidian or dare I ask, is it the combination of both? If the combo, that might be awesome!!!
  2. Have a safe trip home Chris!

  4. I have a great PSO for you to try with that. It's my special blend of castor and camphor oils mixed with a little ipecac. If you are gonna vomit, might as well go full projectile.

  5. Thanks! Pretty much got the hard stuff done. Just heading back today for a birthday party, get my car and some small stuff.
  6. Since I was feeling lazy this weekend and wanting a relaxing day with the family, I picked up 9 lbs of baby back ribs. Last night I prepped the and applied my homemade dry rub. Just got the ribs on the Big Green Egg going low and slow. Should be a real good afternoon. :eatdrink020:

  7. Glad to hear your voice was without problems.
  8. Thank you! I agree, it is one of the best looking TTO out there. Maybe not quite up to something like a Toggle, but very good looking.
  9. Have a safe trip home.

  13. It is me mangling the name, lol. For some reason it is Black Tuxedo in my mind. It should have said Eskimo Tuxedo. Though it could be sweet combined with Obsidian and would be worth a try.

    Jun 4 SOTD:

    Stirling Synthetic Brush
    Penhaligon's Bayolea SS
    Schick Type J
    Penhaligon's Bayolea Soothing Gel

    I broke from my focus this morning, as my wife and I are heading to California for a few days. I packed up my razor with the Voskhod blades, so I used the Type J instead. It was a terrific two pass BBS this morning. I have to say, I am fairly impressed with the Bayolea soap. It lathers well, is slick, and provides good protection.

    My wife and baby are joining me on this business trip, and my parents are coming in to stay at our house with the kids. It should be a fun trip, at least as fun as a work trip can be. I hope everyone has a great day!
  15. Coo coo cachoo! I am a fellow egg man. There is no better way to barquque, grill, or smoke!

    Pass 1
    Razor: NDC Post-War Tech
    Blade: Feather (3)

    Pass 2
    Razor: M3 Schick Adjustable (5)
    Blade: Personna Injector II (4)

    Brush: Cremo by Vie-Long
    Cream: KMF Fragrance-Free
    Post: Alum, Listerine, WH

    I got it in my head today to use the post-War Tech so I moved over the Feather blade from the Fatboy. I don't know if it was the difference in the razors, something with the lather, or the blade just went south sitting for a few days, the the first pass was horrible with lots of tugging. So, for the second pass, I grabbed the Schick Adjustable which powered through the mess to a DFS with no irritation or blood.

    Needless to say, I binned the Feather and will have to figure this all out another day.
  18. Thank you Jim. I have come to really like the two tone color scheme.

    My Big Green Egg is 22 years old this summer. Over that time I have tried to cook just about everything on the egg at least once.

    Also works wonderful for pizza, and with a circular steel plate smoked oysters Carolina style are to die for.
  19. Great photo Jim. I hope you guys have a great trip.
