  4. Your son is like me-finding a different use for a product than what it is meant for. All my Stoylin "Bath Soaps" go to the sink for hand-washing(well, course everyone here and their uncle-in-law know this by now).

  5. Now that's downright mean!

    I don't see no resemblance.

    A nice shave to finish off June. Not my fave fougere, but a quality lather. 3 easy passes to start the day.
    I’ve enjoyed Basics June, and even stayed on focus many days, at least until a few new toys showed up!
    July will start off a little differently for me as I’ll be travelling for the first week. Some fun stuff with the family for a few days, and then off to some work meetings for the rest of the week. Cinco de Julio may be in peril...
    Have a great day, all!
  15. Good luck on your No Buy July!

  16. Excellent posts , pics and reports guys! Enjoyed reading them all.
  17. Glad you were feeling well enough to put in the long hours serving your community and taking their money! We know you'll come through with a grand Opening Post for the next thread. If you need to reserve 1st post with an "Under Construction" sign we'll all just jump in a chatter knitting circle style until word from Cartel Central kicks us off officially.
    Joe I was being flippant. With Danny @Hembree having an equipment melt down I hope neither he nor you took offense. I tried looking up that Chart (Table J) because I do have an interest in chemistry but didn't find specific data. That's OK since I've been happy developing a Generalist Knowledge of many subjects. It's tough being a Renaissance Man with the knowledge available to us Modern connected folks.
  18. Thank you Jim.
