    July 4th SOTD:

    Razor: Razorock Mamba
    Blade: Rapira PL
    Brush: PAA Starcraft
    Lather: Stirling Sandalwood
    Aftershave: Stirling Sandalwood

    I had one problem with my shave this morning, and that was that I was up shaving too early. Unfortunately, I have a sick generator at the refinery, so I will be spending my holiday at work. The shave itself was definitely nice, and I love the scent of Stirling Sandalwood. Two passes and DFS. I hope everyone has a great 4th of July!

  5. :happy096: I stand corrected, Rick. I thought you received the A+ grade in Sam Sung's On-line School of Photography because you were the teacher's pet. Now we see your skills on display. I am still a little miffed, however, that I had to pay for those additional classes for your minor in Politics. :happy097:

  8. Too bad about work, James, but at least you'll be smooth and refreshed.

  10. It's all good, Joe. It just gives me an opportunity to poke some fun back at you. :p The way this thread moves, it's a wonder any of us can keep up. I always enjoy reading your posts. You're always willing to share what you've learned, and you're a great encourager. That's what it's all about.

    P.S. It's much better 'round here since you've mended your ways regarding shave grade inflation. I'm sorry @Edison Carter had to call you on the carpet, but you're a better man for it. :happy102:

  12. Danny, I would mos def not describe you as mature. ;)

    Just remember, aging is mandatory, but maturing is optional.

  14. Duly noted, Joseph. The phrase has a certain mojo about it. I'm glad to hear see you got yours back, my friend. I don't think you ever lost it in the first place. You've been rockin' it with the straights and the honing skills will most certainly follow. Happy 4th, my friend.

  18. Just about everyone I encounter. It eventually drives most people nuts. I know because they start showing up at the meetings. ;)

    My Bride and I have a signal. If she raises her index finger during the conversation, we're talking serious stuff. Feel free adopt that practice here.

  19. Neither fear me.

    The wimmin laugh, and the kiddies know they can outrun me.

    Besides, believe it or not, my High School Sweetheart still keeps me in line... I think!
