EXACTLY, actually had a woman contact me about filing for disability. I said I'm still working. She said sorry we were referred to you. I think it was the surgeon. He wasn't far off. I'm in as much or more pain as before just a year later. No point doing it again. I just trudge on....... he's retired now as I got a notice when he did. He was a nice guy !

Good afternoon from the Winter Wonderland know as Long Island. The snow has taken a break for the last half hour, about 4-5 inches by my estimation has fallen so far. If this is all, great. Hopefully, whatever else is on the way is not of the mixed precipitation variety. I may head out in the next half hour to shovel at least the walkway and patio.

This morning’s shave featured the Bigelow & Parkin Travel razor, generously loaned by @Dave in KY. This was my third shave with the razor. To this point, I have receive nothing less than extremely fine shaves with this razor. Another fantastic three pass shave that has left my face smooth and refreshed. SWMBO even commented on how nice I smelled. Chalk one up for the addition of the Pinaud Powder to the finishing touches.

* @Primotenore - the powder is free of talc, cornstarch instead.
I have love the powder since a kid at the barbershop. I am sure the powder at that time was a talc base.

Great shave Joe, I think it found a new home. Keep it and enjoy it as it was a spare

Fantastic shave and report Joe.

The generosity and kindness shown here is inspiring. Way to go Dave.

Great shave with an interesting razor Joe. Stay warm and take care.

Another fabulous CM shave Jason. Enjoy your day

Thank you Danny. It is time to go shovel.

People in these parts teach their dogs to poo in the neighbor’s yard too.

Our dogs look a lit different tho. Smaller and most don’t have those ungodly huge rabbit ears.

You are absolutely correct., Joe.

I figured the old jackass was just sitting and chilling.

Thanks, Danny! I’m trying!

It snowed this morning and it has stopped in the last few hours. Looks like it is 3 inches, but I think there will be more. Therefore, I decided to break out the Stirling Christmas Eve soap and aftershave in keeping with the weather. Decided to just do a nice, thin creamy, and slick lather. I just love this scent! Two passes gave me a BBS - shave without any errors. Did my usual postshave routine ending with the glorious matching aftershave. I feel good, clean and refreshed. Have a good afternoon guys!

Good shave, Paul!

My son plowed my driveway and parking area out! I’m not shoveling until probably tomorrow!

Great shave and photo, Jim!

Very Nice Joe.

Fine shave Jason. Glad you did not cut yourself considering you did a quick shave.
