    I noticed it - started to comment - decided the Blues were stumbling just enough lately I needed to keep my mouth shut. Both are 23-14 and the Blues have a 1 point advantage. Not enough to get too lippy yet.

    As cute as he is, and as wonderfully innocent as he looks, do NOT be taken in by that deceptive cuteness. Behind those bright eyes and that oh-so-darling smile he is planning household domination. Trust me. Been there, done that. With girls and boys. You are not safe. I repeat.....you are NOT safe.

    My plan for January...

    Shavette

    Will do a rule to try and kill the Arko Challenge. If it runs out... Barbasol.

    I've read that others are doing this. On the fence? If you're new to shavette, ignore all the noise about the tool. Go to Sally Beaty and get a Magic. They have blades or break your DE faves. The Magic is $12ish and is as good as anything. It's basically like SR...juat a little less pressure. It's very manageable, and yields SR results in practiced hands.

    I’m a Canucks fan. That fact kept me from commenting that the Leafs bulb was from the last year they won the Cup in 1967.
    When your team has never won the cup, you can’t point out that others haven’t won it in 50 years.

    I know I run the risk of sounding subversive against the powers that be... but can't we all get along? Enjoy the DEcadence of one another's shaves and descriptions thereof? Besides, we must prepare for the January 2018 30 day rule. These are important matters on which we should keep our focus.

    I'm sure Brian @mrchick is not contemplating any power play or coup d'état. He hasn't sent me any cookies. Besides, I prefer Danish anyway.

    Very true. The Blues are still working on their first Cup too. We just gave the GM a 5 year extension as he's built the best Blues team in a very long time. Hoping this is the year to finally land the Stanley Cup to go with the 12 World Series trophies a few blocks away!

    We’ve made the finals 3 times. Got blown out by the Islanders in ‘82, lost to the Rangers in Game 7 in ‘94 (our best team, IMHO) after Messier broke our Captain’s nose with a cheap shot to end game 6, and, in excruciatingly heart-rendering fashion, on home ice in Game 7 to Boston in ‘10. Not that I remember these at all...
    Yes, you have a very deep, well-balanced and talented team this year in St. Louis. If they win the cup, perhaps you could buy us all some Chatillon Lux to celebrate...

    RyX DoH!

    Thank you Clint. The roadside find of a box of cloth is almost at the end. It's made for something besides a shave towel for a backdrop.

    Nice Shave Towel as a backdrop for your photo!
    Is your aftershave running on fumes or clear?

    It's very slightly purple, and doesn't show up easily in photos.
