  1. My wife knows about the all brushes since I leave them out on my bathroom counter to dry between uses. However it would be a big difference to see all them out at one time. ;)

  2. I agree 100 percent.

  3. Can a fruitcake actually petrify? I thought they were unable to spoil, mold, petrify, or in any other way be destroyed except by dropping on a landmine.
  4. Ivan has informed me that warm, fresh baked cookies are located at a famous Russian all-inclusive vacation resort called the “Siberian Gulag”. Finally, someone with a straightforward answer of where to get some fresh baked cookies around here. That Ivan seems like such a nice guy. I told him I needed to pack a bag, but he insists that it’s all inclusive and everything is provided. I’ll send you guys a post card from one of the poolside cookie stands he told me about.

  5. No. They are actually land mine resistant.

  6. Just be thankful you kept that Osage above the waist!
  7. Looking forward to hearing about your travels! Don't worry about a thing. Most people don't know that "Gulag" is actually the word for "vacation". In fact, most people who go to Siberia for the Gulag love it so much they never leave!

  8. I look forward to seeing your brush family photos. You both have some beautiful examples. It will be fun seeing them grouped together.

    I'm sure your Brides already know about your obsessions...er...collections. :)

  9. You don’t think it would work well for shaving? So, when has that ever stopped you? ;)

  10. Ok, let me rephrase that. I don't think it would be good on my gear with the grit in it. How's that? Yeah, I'm more concerned with the effect on inanimate objects like razors and brushes than my own skin. Priorities, y'know.
  11. Ok, ok. I’ll give you a pass on that one! :D
  12. Actually, I once saw a landmine destroyed when a soldier dropped a fruitcake sent by his grandmother on it. The fruitcake survived the experience intact, apart from one miniscule piece of fruit that separated from the cake and lodged itself in his cornea.

  13. After a large scale exchange of thermonuclear weapons, only roaches and fruit cake survive. Then the roaches starve.
  14. Beautiful picture, Doug!
  15. Pride. The realest.

    Palmolive is good stuff. Any idea when that was made?
  17. It is good stuff, I find it to be a favorite Stick. It is current production from the UK.
  18. Thanks. Wanted to know if that's the current version. Good skin feel.
  19. Glad you liked it. I have a hard time picking between Palmolive and Arko for my best value in shaving. I know Arko can be had a bit cheaper, and I do enjoy the scent, but I still much prefer the scent of Palmolive. The Palmolive just tickles something in my memory of my childhood. It feels so comforting to me when I use it. Both are great.

  20. My stick is from Germany. I got it from @BaylorGator as part of my Shavey Award. I don't know if it is current production, but the ones listed on IB are from Germany as well.
    My Palmolive Menthol cream is from Italy.
    Both are excellent.
