    It's going to be abbreviated posts for a few days (weeks?)
    I am moving my 85 year old mother into an assisted living center and I just drove her down from
    Cleveland yesterday, so until she is completely settled in, I am pre-occupied.
    No shave yesterday, so today's R41 shave was MAGNIFICENT. The R41 is THE best every other day razor and while I will continue to use it everyday this month, the shave experience is COMPLETELY different with 48hrs growth. Can't explain it. Just is.
    I do not do ANYTHING differently. Today: ZERO nicks; ZERO weepers; ZERO Alum burn; Simply perfect. BBS in 2+ passes.
    If I got this experience with this razor everyday, I would be overjoyed.
    I am hoarding my top-shelf Bay Rums until the West Indies has recovered. May be a while.
    The Grand Bay Bay Rum is produced by the same people that make Dominica. Very similar.
