  6. HR said you don't work for the company and they don't resolve personal conflicts... in fact I think they added me to a watch list for even trying... ;)

  7. Tim contacted me 2 weeks ago. He's a teacher and a parent with a large family doing the distance learning thing. He's very busy, but he and his family are healthy and doing well.

  8. Thanks Blair! This brush is actually made of steel and plated in 18k gold. It weights a full 8 oz.

    My Grandmother asked us to come later in the week. My sister visited her yesterday and she was going to spend the day with her tomorrow. My Grandmother sounded a little worn out. Last week when we visited we were there for 4 hours and when we left she followed us out to the car, obviously starved for human interaction. I told my sister and cousin they needed to visit her and it sounds like they're responding. I have a good family. She's okay for now so we will go over on Friday or Saturday.

    Hope your father stays healthy physically and mentally, Blair! I'm so thankful for my wife and kids. I can't even imagine living alone right now.

  9. Given the news today, been listening to some Van Halen, old and new. Was lucky enough to see them in 1987 at the Texas Jam in the Cotton Bowl.

  10. Umm...a quick check in the British/Canadian dictionary showed no translation for what you just said.

    OCtober Shave # 5
    DE Shave # 291

    Super shave this morning as I finished off this jar of soap. This is the second jar I have finished off in the last two months. Perhaps I can bin one more before the end of this dumpster fire of a year, 2020. The final lather was voluminous.

    Good morning!

    Fantastic shave to start the day! Three passes for near BBS. Nearly silent alum.

    I'm going to start working on the Astra Planeta again, well at least one day a week. Still three ounces of soap left so I have a ways to go.

    Happy Humpday, gentlemen!

  15. October 4 & 6

    Mongoose (batch 2) in satin SS finish w/Big Bomber handle
    Feather Super Professional SE (1 & 2)
    Rudy Vey Chubby handle w/24 mm Shavemac Silvertip two-band bulb knot (Oct. 4)
    30 Day Crew LE Figured Maple handle w/APShaveCo Tuxedo knot (Oct. 6)
    Mike's Natural Soaps Hungarian Lavender soap
    Alum
    Thayers Unscented Witch Hazel

    Two fantastic back-to-back shaves. The knot came out of the my RV brush during the cleanup after my shave on Oct. 4, so my trusty 30 DC LE brush took up the charge on Oct. 6. I hope you all have a fantastic day.

    Grace and Peace.

  16. My RV and @MrEE brush handles and a 24 mm Shavemac knot await their flight from SDF to @Jayaruh brush and hot rod service. A big thanks to @Keithmax for sending over the G3. I'll accompany the brushes since we're having BBQ ribs and ice cream during the flight.
