    That is why I shave with razor rather than with towels! :D
    Color is questionable and, to me, smell as well!

    Last night I saw some clips of Independence Day: I don't like sci-fi (which already creates pronunciation problems, considering its etymology ...), apart from some funny films.
    In this there is Will Smith who is truly eclectic, even if the film is not exactly unforgettable.

    Science fiction speaks volumes about the human being ...
    Have you noticed that, since the dawn, the aliens are of a monstrous intelligence but of at least questionable appearance (when they are not decidedly ugly, disturbing and, often, disgusting!)?

    The human being abdicates his intelligence but is not willing to give up his appearance!
    And we tease Miss World when she says she only wants universal peace ...

    When I shaved it was raining and the choice of gear was motivated, now it is bright and it would be questionable.

    But it was very, very good and pleasant.

    Cold Water Rinse
    Vintage Life Licorice Shave Soap
    Jayaruh #41
    H. Böker 5/8
    CWR
    Aqua Velva Musk

    My prep was just a cold water rinse. The Vintage Life Licorice Shave Soap face lathered well with Jayaruh #41 Brush. I did two passes and a cleanup with the H. Böker 5/8 razor and ended up with a close, comfortable shave. After a cold water rinse, I finished off with Aqua Velva Musk After Shave. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...
