    Awaiting the arrival of said box!
    There has been a stomach bug going around our neck of the woods, so I'm sure the aftershaves will be a much needed help ;)

    If there are no more life interruptions, I should be able to break away for a solid review if the box on Wednesday.
    My wife's Aunt passed suddenly on Saturday, (short battle with Cancer, spread to brain...) She and my 6 month old are going to Arkansas next week for the funeral.
    So, if it's ok with the group, and the one behind me, I may need to delay sending out of said box for a day or two until after she gets back.

    Thank you all very much!
    Box came in Wednesday, and like another person, my job informed me that ill be laid off in a couple of weeks.
    But, it's gonna be a good thing in the long run. 15 years in the same industry and I'm ready for a change!

    Sorry to hear that man. Life is full of ups and downs, but to have a string of downs really isn't fun. Hoping things improve quickly.

    So had a chance to look through the box today. I have some tentative takes for now. I want to try out a couple of things to determine if I will keep them or not.
    The blue blades, and the Feathers didn't survive the shipment.
    I'll report back next week when we get back from the funeral in Arkansas.
