  1. I used a DE for several years on the dome and finally got tired of catching moles and so use the Trac II/Atra for my scalp in the shower.
  2. Great shave Andrew, glad you enjoyed the straight and the Stirling bay rum.

  3. Not the one I had in mind :))
  4. One of the tougher days at work that I can remember. Lots of conflict I have to get in the middle of. Tomorrow will be the B side of the same record. On the bright side, if I ever want to teach kindergarten, I’m pretty sure I’m prepared for bad behavior and two year old tantrums.

  7. I'm sorry you had a rough day, Randy. This is one of the reasons I don't miss work.

  8. Terry, you are right. The new thing that I am learning is that I can't shave the same way when I use a sharper blade with my shavette. I have to use a little lighter touch then when I use a Dovo long or a regular DE half blade. There is hope because I used the Personna hairshaper for my headshave without any nicks. However, if I really want to play daredevil, then I would want to use a Feather blade in my Dovo shavette. Lol! I guess as I have gotten older, I have become more daring. Don't worry! I will never skydive! Lol!
  9. Have you considered taking away their juice boxes and nap time?
  10. Here's your song, Paul. It's one of my favorite tunes from the '80s.

  11. Ah good chioce! I had some moles removed on the head and neck per the wifes request. They were quite large so combing the hair was hard. I did have hair once upon a time. So I understand the problems.
    Very good chioce.

  17. Congrats on your progress, Rob. Your focus, your rules. Have fun with different soaps! As your technique develops, I bet you'll soon be shaving daily (if that's your goal) with no neck irritation. When I got started, I never thought I'd be able to pull off daily shaves. I had neck irritation for years from misusing a crummy electric razor. (Yes, I'm from Kentucky, and I had a red neck.) It's all gone now. I bet yours will be too!
  18. A step up from Lyin Eyes, that :).
  19. Randy, are you 100% sure your wife hadn't already arrived at that conclusion?
  20. Randy............I have had those days as well. I think sometimes I work at an adult daycare center.
