    With you there, Paul. Their mini picks are the size of a thimble. I take the soap out and mash it into a larger container so it’s easy to load.

    Unless he’s a superheo and hit it a couple of miles into international waters, it’s still in Scotland, but I do get your point. I often wondered if the people who originally came up with the “Stays in Vegas” campaign had ever heard of STDs. Just a thought.

    Now that’s taking the whole “kilts optional” theme to the next level.

    I was hoping we’d have a “Fuzzy sighting” around here soon but I didn’t mean it quite that literally. Regardless, good to er... “see you” Fuzzy!

    Another great Christmas pic, Jim. Your wife has quite a collection of nutcrackers!

    NCoxSTL AAACK!

    I should be sufficiently recovered to attempt the second one in an hour. Maybe.

    You have had some super cool vintage looks lately, Rick.
    Great photo and the usual great write-up, Neal.
    Love the Gentleman! Great looking strop as well.
    Nice Holiday theme, Mark.
    Enjoy the parade!
    Another decadent British shave, Charlie!
    Beautiful greenery shot, Clint! You have green leaves, and I’m going skiing tomorrow...

    Thank you, Jason! My wife bought a bunch of nutcrackers a few years ago, and now she gets one or two every year. The collection adds up quickly.

    Had to give another go with the larger container @Douglas Carey sent. Used my Staley Live head on a Windrose handle, 30DC LE soap destroyer boar, Oleo Soapworks El Caballero soap, and The Holy Black Gunpowder Spice Whisker Whiskey to finish it off. Scents worked well together, and three passes for a DFS. A few weepers, but a good shave.

    Baylor, I clarified what I said later on-I was talkinabout the normal-sized pucks they have(which is what I ordered). Wouldn't try a mini from them, given their small "normal" pucks.

    That's an excellent point......the "spoil factor". Lee's pucks(WSP) are 125 grams(normal size)..How does that amount translate to lbs.?

    Thanks for all your suggestions as to how to solve the "Junior Varsity Size" puck problem. Gives me an idea for 2019-if the Wild West Shaving Co. sill sells just 2-0z. pucks, I'll get one or 2 and be the "Mad Scientist" again :). Maybe WWSC will have'em larger by then though. But I'll do "spring training" with the WSP, for now.
