  2. You're welcome Joe! You put the numbers and a name to something I do but hadn't defined. Credit where it's due!
    Thanks Jim & Andrew!
    Thank you Danny! I'd have used Aqua Velva. but I passed my last to a neighbor. It was in a small vintage glass bottle I picked up from some antique or thrift store. When I microwaved the original plastic bottle the metallic portion of the label sparkled! Fortunately I prefer that Barbasol I used today.

  10. Congrats Clint. That sounds like a wonderful trip. I believe Manuel (the maker of Jabonman Eufros soaps) is located in Barcelona. I would bring a suitcase full of his soaps back with me.

  11. By my rough calculations, @clint64 will need $25,482.68 (22,610.27 Euro) for shave-related purchases in Barcelona. I'm catching up on the thread from yesterday, and I'm impressed by the turbo enabling. ;)

    Good morning!

    Wonderful shave to start the day! Three passes for near BBS. Totally silent alum.

    Ogallala Bay Rum inspired by @DouglasCarey. Terrific scent! I did overload the brush and it took me awhile to get enough water worked in but once I did, oh yeah!

    Have a great day!

  19. I beg to differ. You have the Pirates of the Carribean shave theme, Jim! By the way, it's a great shave!
