  1. Thank you Joe. I really like WSP soaps. Given how dense and concentrated the soaps appear, I expect them to last a long time.

  2. The only cart I’ve ever used is the Omnishaver, and though it seemed miraculous initially, it gave me ingrown hairs.

  10. Great advice, Clint! I was one of the ‘stupid’! Lejeune will definitely be an experience. I did mine at MCRD San Diego in ‘65. I’ve heard it’s much more refined than in my day!

  11. Terrific shave today Joe! Now, why would you bring up the controversial debate of gravy vs sauce? You are literally stirring the pot with it! Lol!

  12. Paul that's 5.3 oz of triple milled soap so it has little to no water remaining. It will out last two or more Stirling soap tubs. We pay a lot for fancy water in artisan soaps.

  13. I was in the Army in did mine in 1983 at Ft Benning. I was in the barracks from WW2 at Harmony Church. My dad was prior service Army, a medic, and dropped me off at the bus station. He looked at me and said "Son you've chosen a life I wish you would not have. I can only over you two pieces of advice. One, you don't know a damn thing until they tell you that you know it. Second, don't volunteer for s..t." I saw a tear roll out of his eye as he turned and left. He did shed a tear during his mother's funeral. I knew for sure at that moment I had screwed the pooch. :) I would not trade the experience for anything but I am not sure I could do it again.
  14. Great looking shave Joe. Enjoy the time with your son.

  15. Andrew, take it from this Brooklyn native of Italian descent. It is sauce when you pour it over pasta and gravy over meat. The easy way to remember is Red Sauce, Brown Gravy! Glad that you agree with me on this important topic.
  16. She must have been from a different part of Italy than my family. We were very saucy people! :happy097:

    Shave Soap & Aftershave

    Hard to believe the weekend is going by so fast. The "Soap Destroyer" did a number on the A&E Dirty Ginger. I really like the scent of this soap. A well blended strong scent of Ginger & Rum with Tobacco Flower. The Karve is such a smooth and intuitive razor to use. Three passes and touch ups ended in a BBS shave. I hope everyone has a great Sunday.
  18. that's where i got them as well..:(
