  2. At this time of the survey, I'd like to be able to project the winners of places 2-7.






    But I can't. What an exciting race for runner-up.

  6. Thanks, Danny. There are a few really deep, really weird gouges (no way from regular use) on the top cap, but the rest of the razor is in pristine condition. Also, Clint recommended Mother's Mag and Aluminum polish and I am a fan of it now for sure.

  8. That is still the SE score of the century, especially for uniqueness... only Brian's @mrchick 'bucket of DE razors' is in the same ballpark.

  11. Here's the description that was on the website for Bonaparte:

    You will never be the Emperor. The proletariat will never tremble in your presence. Nobility won’t acquiesce to your every demand. Kings will not offer you their daughters. Don’t let that stop you from smelling like royalty. A very powerful blend of Thyme, Rosemary, Bergamot, Lavender, Petitgrain, Lime, Lemon, Orange, Grapefruit, Ylang Ylang, and Tangerine. Like the Emperor himself, this scent will not go quietly. You are just as likely to hate it as you are to love it.

  19. Clint and Danny, I would have to say it was in my top three strangest days. I do seem to see some really odd things and some really unusual conversations when traveling for work.
