    How many of you remembered to put the flag out?

    I did.

    I am shocked that I am only one of two on my block who did. Depressing.

    Do your neighbors put out a flag?

    I always put the flag up. It would be a sin not to. IMHO

    Repeated use of a straight can fix that.

    We have one in the yard in front of our house. But, to be honest, so does everyone in our neighborhood. We are having an Independence Day Parade through our neighborhood shortly.

    Ruling from the group requested. Been working in the yard all day, and going to shower tonight. Would it be sacrilege to do my Cinco de Julio shave on the Fourth?

    SharptoothC I bite..........

    This may be one of those occasions where the cure is worse than the disease.

    July 4 - more Razorock

    Merkur 34C
    Astra SP (day 3)
    Dark Chocolate (JR148)
    DIY PSO
    Razorock Classic soap
    Alum/Thayers/AOS PSB

    Another pass around box soap and this time it was Razorock Classic from a white tub. I think this is the newer formula since the ingredients match the website's listing. Nice almond scent on the medium side. Lather was thick and slick. Post shave wasn't bad but I still applied PSB. 3 passes grabbed the BBS. Alum showed a little sting.

    Happy 4th everyone!

    1) no pole.
    2) only flags I own are a Canadian flag, and a collectable (Nazi youth group flag. I keep it wrapped up because even I find it creepy)

    My folks put out two flags, however.
