    Yesterday was spent with my 3 siblings and parents as we celebrated Mother’s Day early. It was the first time all 6 of us have been together for about 3 years. But, hanging out with Mom and Dad and getting that memory scent of Brut or Aqua Velva, which is what my dad has used for years, well, I was inspired to look in the back of my cabinet and find that bottle of Brut.

    My ex didn’t like it, so I didn’t use it often, but since she is no longer in my life, I figure I can wear what I want.

    Today I feel like I am wafting off the ‘essence of man’!

  10. Very nice shave and family photo. Amazing how various scents bring us back in time.

    None related: Will the Av’s come out of the Conference or will the LV Knight’s be the representative?

    The Gillette Platinum blade (day 2) inserted in the Floating Head, provided a less than smooth shave.
    The ABC shave cream mos def© does not live up to its price point.
    This cream is eclipsed by many, less expensive products.
    I'll work my way through it eventually, but I won't gravitate to it. May be a candidate for a PIF.
    Some irritation on the neck after the ATG pass. This area is the litmus test for:
    1) My
    technique
    2) Slickness of the soap
    3) Smoothness of the blade
    Today...all three were sub-par.

    Interesting combination, better than I anticipated.
    I received a solicited: "It's ok...smells clean" from Dr. Mrs. Primo.

  20. Thanks, Clint!

    To be honest we haven't even talked about today's meals. I'll probably do us up some big thick ribeyes. What's on the menu for you and Swati?
