  1. The 66 is really a great looking injector.


    Whew, that is a long week. I hope you have a restful weekend.

    That is a great looking shave.
  2. Thanks, Clint!
  3. Great picture, Bruce! The Supply treating you well?
  4. Shave number thirteen on the Wilkinson Super Sword Edge blade. It's starting to get a little tuggy but still produced an excellent result. With eight days left in June I'll estimate four or five more shaves on that blade. We'll see if it acquires the "buttery" stage that others (not I) have experienced.
  5. Thanks Jason. We had a great time with our friends at the track today. We sat in the Winner's Circle close to the Finish Line. It was a great way to view the races.
  6. Thanks Jim!
  7. Thanks Andrew. I appreciate the kind words. I hope you're doing well!
  8. Thanks Bruce. We had a great day today. I hope you did as well!
  9. Bruce, how do you like For Him?

  12. It's hard to tell from the photo, but we even have indoor parking for the limo.

  13. I hope you stopped to breath a little in among all the verbosness...sheesh it's just a DE. You should try out a Auto Strop A1.
    Told you so....wooo.

    Used my G4 today. It has a lot of wonderful blade feel indeed.

    Gettin' above ya raising a little there ain't ya? (Or maybe I am just jealous)
  14. Awesome, all the way across the board.
  15. Very cool.
  16. Thank you Jared.
  17. Good to see you pop your head in whenever you can, Brian!

  19. Fresh blade in the MMOC this morning felt soooo good. I know some say the PTFE takes 1-3 (face) shaves to mellow but my best head+beard shaves are the first two.

    My buddy suggested a very small dose of melatonin to beat my week long jet lag and it has indeed worked, last three days have been able to sleep til 7.

    No pics but my former manager (who lives next door) made a fabulous Khmer curry with a perfect balance of spicy and sweet -- Khmer food doesn't use chillis as liberally as Thai -- and it was lunch with bread, dinner with rice. Great cook. I gave her husband a Slim a couple years ago, I should check in and see if he's still using it.

    I've settled into a morning routine which involves after my shave a brief walk to a local cafe for two Americanos. Lavazza Super Crema, very well prepared, and despite lacking in freshness a really fine cup. $1.75 here. There is a well known local roaster and while his beans are excellent it still takes a barista who knows what they're doing, and for whatever reason my Lavazza guy is delivering a better cup.
