September 2019 30 Day Rule/Focus Pix & Discussion

Yankees are ok. It’s the Damn Yankees we don’t like.

A Yankee is a northerner who moves or visits because they like the place

A Damn Yankee is one who moves and tells everyone that it was better where they came from.

I have a coworker from California that was always talking about how this and that were better in California. I got tired of it one day and reminded him that U-Hauls could be rented one way and just go back where he came from. If he still complains about Colorado it's not around me.

 

Beautiful setup Gary!

 

Thank you, Andrew!

 

Great SEptember shave, Gary!

 

I would be the Yankee...........I'm a research freak when it comes to tourism.....People like me would be CERTAIN that moving somewhere is because we're tired and up;set with where we are now.(I should add......"and because our choice of new location would be much better for us").

 

Thank you, Andrew!

 

I've lived in California for a year(schoolyear to be exact)and visited Colorado during parts of many summers. Maybe I need to be in Colorado for a year, to judge better, or to visit California for a year NOW(as opposed to being in 2nd-grade). But BOTH are better than the Boston area. that's for sure. I'm just lucky to live 22 miles west of Boston, where the atmosphere is more "California/Colorado" than Boston.

 

Wonderful photo and shave Gary.

SOTD Stirling September 9th


Stirling Mentholated Pre-Shave Soap
Timeless Bronze OC
Gillette 7 O'Clock SharpEdge(yellow)
Yaqi Mysterious Space (24mm, Frigate Class)
Stirling 2019 Dirty South Shavers soap and AS

Lovely shave this morning with Stirling Dirty South Shavers set. Like Perry @PLAla said it is a light clean cologne type scent. It's kinda hard to describe this one, is almost like a mix of Ramblin Man and Dunshire. It's very different then all of the other cologne dupes in the Stirling lineup and I quite like it! Took my time this morning to really build up a super goop lather and when I painted it on it was so wet that it was almost drippy. I found a little more blade feel and less smoothness with the Timeless Bronze OC. It was a nice shave but it really didn't have that wow factor like the closed comb. Three passes brought home the baby with ease and I finished with a healthy splash of the matching AS. Have a great day my friends!

Thanks Clint !

 

Wonderful photo and post, Andrew! I agree that's it quite a different scent. A little sweet. It reminds me a lot of Country Club for Men Modern Fougere, but I know that doesn't help you guys since he closed shop. Anyway, great shave!

 

Oh boy....somebody help me from making a purchase that will literally last the rest of my life(and my nephew or future step-son gets the rest).

From Wlliamsport Barber(y'know, the guys who charge a lot for shipping):

:Buy One Gallon Of Stephan Bay Rum A.S., Get A 15-oz. for Free.
Tempting, but........................I just dunno. Total cost $29.50 + the shipping. I have until next Monday to decide. Well, my brain now has a big thing on its "mind" for the week. Yikes. By the way, I say "future step-son" for whenever I get married, and if she has a son already.
