  1. Not sure, but I thought I heard somewhere that Keith got rid of that one because she was a cutter.
    :cool:

    Far as I'm concerned, nuttin a little bit of ice cream won't solve.
  2. Talk about hypnotic razors.
    Hmph!

  3. It’s Cinco de Julio eve!

    I wonder if I can get three years out of the same blade and popsicle sticks?

  7. Dang it. This is what happens with very high stress, very little sleep, and a foreign language mixed in.

    On a side note, I’ve honed my used razor and should be easy to rock next month.

    Carry on.

  9. Not corny at all, Joseph. Well said, imho.
    Wow, love the Damascus fold lines in that blade, Keith. Tres Cool.
    A Canadian beer cozy? You, sir, have arrived.
    Great Back to Basics shave, Patrick. I hope work settles down soon.
    If Tabac counts, maybe I’ll break it out.
    Great minds on the Palmolive, Robert. The Menthol cream is also a great product...just talked myself into grabbing it for the morning.
    Love the B & W, Gary. Great shots.

  11. I haven't check in properly in a while, so I didn't realise the focus was the basics!
    Last night I enjoyed a wonderful shave using the full range of Sandalwood products from TOBS. It was a luxurious shave that yielded superb face feel and a great close shave! I didn't use the straight razor this time (I opted for my Fatip Grande loaded with an Astra SP on its 2nd or 3rd outing) but I'll be starting my next shave off with it![​IMG]

  14. You've honed it, with very high stress and very little sleep? This could be entertaining. :D

  15. Side Note: When I was in college, (and a few years away from legally being able to purchase alcohol :scared003: ) we used to make "road trips" to St. Louis, because back then, Coors was not available east of the Mississippi.
    Now THAT was a real treat! :eatdrink047:
  16. Thank you, Gary. :)

  18. 1947 SS...that's one of the DE's I miss. Great shave, Neal.

  19. I'll comment on the AS, Robert. Is that a "throwback" or is it new? Scent? I am guessing in the direction of Aqua Velva. :signs002:
