  1. @PLAla , another new thing I've done is "grade" my shaves(as I guess you saw just now). All my shaves are "excellent", the question then is..."HOW excellent". :). @Trigger got me staaaated on this with his letter-grade shaves. :). From the three of us, two are teachers, and I'm not. (Chuk yuk yuk yuk).
  2. I'd like to add a personal observation, Paul. I was born and raised in Alabama but had a significant amount of family from the Boston area. I can attest from my experiences on summer vacations up North, there is quite a difference in the humidity levels between the two. :happy005:
  3. Nice shave, PierPaolo! Stay safe and healthy!
  4. Aaaaah, I suppose you're right. But I'll say this-one of the reasons I was glad to move back to Massachusetts from Washington DC(I shouldn't say "glad", but that's another story), was the DC humidity was too much to bear. What did I find in my first summer back here in MA? No difference.
  5. Thanks Maestro! I do that with all my soaps. I let them stand uncovered and upside down for 24hrs. Based on reviews, I am not the first one to encounter the slime transformation of Cryogen. I believe that the soap can't withstand too much pressure ftom the swirling brush and the amount of too much water. After leaving the soap out to dry for 24 hrs, it tended to get very soft and gelatinous after the first number of shaves. I ordered another puck. I am only going to use a synthetic brush and very little water on the tips to facelather. I will not return to the puck to get more soap so that I minimize the amount of water on the puck. Hopefully, the integrity of the soap remains intact.
  6. thank you Perry and good morning.i knew it was coming in the future but the covid factor sped it up.time for a change in profession maybe..
  7. I think everyone does.
  8. Beautiful Empire set, Gary with great photo!
  9. I really don't think it makes any difference. However, I am the guy that will use any soap, regardless of the season.

  16. Of course, the other option is to take a finger-full of soap from the container and avoid brush contact altogether.
  17. You've done it again, Mr. G! Sorry about the job situation. Praying you will find something else soon.
