    Happy Monday gentlemen. I have been busy doing some chores around the house this morning and running some errands. However, prior to being productive I treated myself to a wonderful MMOC shave with a great performing soap. I inserted a new blade into the MMOC and was rewarded with a divine three pass shave. How is that for an adjective Paul, @Paul Turner? Simple but directly to the point. ;)
    Here is a shot of the lather which I think would receive the Joe, @Primotenore, SOA.

    I am feeling and smelling good. On the recovery front, each day I seem to be getting a greater range of motion. There is the persistent dull ache, however, no as bad as before the procedure. I will take that as progress.

    Hope you all have a great day gentlemen.

    Thanks Joe. Guess I've been around for a while, even if I'm not the most active member of TSD. I do enjoy the camaraderie around here.

    Great MMOC shave, Joe! Hopefully, as you continue to heal the ache will resolve and disappear.

    Well, my fever broke the 100 degree mark just now and without any help from acetominophen. It is 99.6. So, I seem to be on the mend. Again, I am just letting this 66 yr old body rest. Thank you all for your concern. I am looking forward to shaving with a straight or shavette real soon.
