  1. That is fantastic news, Charlie!
    That Hammy ain't too bad, either...
  2. You can add Agar (Oud) trees to that list. Real Oud Oil is $100/gram apparently.
  3. Thank you for the nice words, Gentlemen. I'm with you Blair, I liked the older cartoonish Stirling Labels- MITA, Electric Sheep, Ben Franklin, Barbershop etc.
  4. Wow! That’s really up there.
  5. You should buy the $58 soap then too...
  6. Thanks guys.
  7. Wednesday Shave: Today's TSD is another Jason special ( @jtspartan ) this one has a Thäter silver tip. An awesome brush by every measure. Still trying to wear out a puck of Fine Soap, this stuff is a very nice performer. A 7/8 Wacker Huntsman did the dirty work of moving down this whiskers. A couple shots of Creed Millesime Imperial and I am out the door.

  8. Ladies and gentlemen, may I present to you the finest Visual Aid in the 'Just the Basics - June' special category - Pimp Stocks Straights..... from TSD's very own emeritus chemistry educator extraordinaire.

    Max Headroom has been reporting a rumbling in 'the Deep' and whispering of revoking the CT of 'Double Jedi' in favor of 'Triple Jedi'

    Congratulations Joe on the acquisition of a Sweet Piece! May your 65th be blessed.

    Just for the record, I am up for adoption.

    Good morning!

    Eventhough I struggled with dissipating lather I still had a wonderful shave to start the day! Three passes for near BBS. Just the lightest tickle from the alum.

    Have a great day!

    What a difference a day makes. I am feeling much better today. Sadly that means going to work. Everything worked well together today. Three passes with touch ups ended in a drama free BBS shave. I hope everyone has a great Wednesday.

    What setting on the Ambassador did you finally settle in at?
