  1. Awesome shave Jason! The razor does look cool and Mr.EE did a super job on it.

  2. Wow, good to know. I thought based on the price they weren't. Solid brass razor for $30...yup I'd strip that thing down.
  3. I thought they were all brass. You are correct...Zamac needs a coating.

  4. Terrific shaves Jeff! The Obsidian sounds like a great frag. I never had home made anisette cookies. Stella Doro anisette toast, that's gold star to you non-Italians, was my only introduction to that flavor as a kid. Years later, I was able to have anisette in my coffee.
  5. I am so thrilled for you Clint! I am believing that the neurologist won't find anything serious. Have an awesome day and celebrate the best way you know how!
  6. I think that it was great for the radiologist to give you the good news so quickly. Maybe he/she sensed that you were concerned and wanted you to know the results so that you can have a great weekend. Whatever the reason for getting the good news, the doctor ought to be commended.
  7. Super shavestick shave Blair! I only have one shave stick (Tabac) and I get great lathers from it. It seems to me that a few members have done well with shavesticks. I would never pooh pooh them. They are usually relegated as travel gear, but I see no reason to avoid using them at home. Btw, the hot towel is a nice touch. Have a great day!

    Means I will not go out until later this evening to complete round 2 of shoveling. This morning, following the X3Bar workout, I had a nice and relaxing shave. Classic Italian/Spanish combination for a three pass shave and finish.
    Hopefully this is the last of the white stuff for a while. Have a great day gentlemen.

  11. That black ice can be dangerous! I almost slipped on regular ice the other day. We don't need any broken bones. Btw, have your ribs healed?
  12. Thanks Dave.
