  7. Thanks Jim. I didn't give it two thoughts at the time. I just did what I needed to do.

    I'm a John Maxwell fan. He has written many great books on leadership. Someone asked him once how he wrote so many books. He said, "I write every day." There's much power in creating good daily habits. He also says that "luck is defined as when preparation meets opportunity." His teaching just makes sense to me.

    Of course, the main reason I'm still alive and kicking is that God's Hand has always directed my life. I mess up a lot left to my own devices. I often don't see it at the time, but I can look back and see Him clearly at work. I'm still a work in progress. :)

    Hope you're having a great weekend. I had a great shave, and I'm carting two women around shopping today. I'm currently checking out the engineering build quality of some recliners. BBQ ribs are being planned for later. We're inviting a guy named Sweet Baby Ray over to help out. :)

  13. Joe, were you ever a fan of the "elbow bumps" the Oakland A's would give each other after a home run?

  18. Only in Atlanta can you go from sunshine and 70s to monsoons and tornadoes to snow on the ground all within the week.

    Thank you Jim.

    February 8 SOTD:

    Razor: Gillette Aristocrat Jr
    Blade: Polsilver
    Brush: PAA The Solar Flare
    Lather: PAA Son of Honeysuckle
    Aftershave: PAA Son of Honeysuckle

    So this is a new soap, and it is not usually they type of soap I would go for, but something sounded intriguing about it, so I took a chance. It is definitely a floral scent, heavy floral. There is a slight bit of honey in the background. I am not sure what Japanese Honeysuckle smells like, but I can imagine it is close to this. It resembles jasmine a bit. It did get the SWMBOSOA (©️ @Primotenore), so that is good. The CK6 base is always good. I am not sure this is a repurchase, but it isn't a bad scent. I hope everyone has a great day!
  20. fantastic shave and pic Jeff..it feels good to hit a home run..twice in a row..you may have found your "one"razor....:)
