  3. Not sure about that, Jeff. I consider my scent knowledge pretty rudimentary, but many of these SV scents just really work for me.

  4. Did I mention I covet that brush and great progress on the floors. Now your back to laboring though.......

    EDIT - I saw your hiring the baseboards out :happy088:

  5. ^^^^THIS^^^^ I've done the use it method and this helps it immensely at least with my Oumo. My Stirling has been used to death and is still stiff and prickly................

  6. I am dreading the process. We have a couple of home remodeling/repairs to do this summer. Then I can get me a dog.

    I listened to the podcast about the razor. The manufacturing process sounds very cool. If the process works at the price indicated, I think Blackland will have made a huge step in keeping manufacturing in the USA.

  10. Thanks, Gary!
    Thank you, Jason.
    We had this same crew do the flooring on the main floor a couple of years ago. They do nice work.
    Thanks, Dave. The extent of my labor on this project is moving furniture and some painting.
    We still get the granddogs most weekends. That helps with the urge to get a dog of our own. I'm sure eventually we will have a puppy or two running around here.

  12. I think we have decided on the what kind of dog to get. I really like the company of walking a dog once or twice a day. That helps keep an old guy like me walking enough.

  16. I also have a Stirling boar and it never felt like it was broken in as compared to my Omega Pro 9.. It still is stiff and scritchy as well. Also, it sheds like crazy!

  19. Very nice shave Joe. How do you like the Lo Sorto? How does it compare to any of the other slants you have used.
