    Changed the blade in the Valet tonight and got a very good shave. Once again I pulled the blade back a touch and made 2 passes with it. Still having to use the Red Tip around the chin and jaw. Hope everyone is having a good weekend. The Old Spice is amazing.:happy088::happy088::happy088: Forgot to include the brush in the picture tonight.:rolleyes: Same brush as yesterday.

  6. I hope the injections work for you. By the time I finally went in last year, the doctor gave me a less than 5% chance of success with injections. I went straight to surgery. I am still dealing with some loss of strength and numbness in my leg. Do you have a herniated disc?

  7. I may have commented in the past, but that bowl is great!

  8. Thanks, my wife bought it for me. I like because it is really deep. Very easy to whip up a great lather. Probably good for soup also. :)

  9. I've found that pretty much everything taste good on a Ritz. My favorite would be peanut butter and jelly, or ham and cheese, or........:eatdrink020:

  10. Peanut butter and jam for me. Jelly is good also. :)
  11. The very bottom vertebrae has slipped down and forward 10mm or so pinching the nerve. This is causing a lot of pain in the lower back and pain shooting down both legs. The bottom 3 are all effected but not as bad as the bottom one. If I have to have surgery, the it will be a spinal fusion.

    I hope you continue to get better and things improve for you.
  12. How you are feeling better soon.
  13. Thanks Doug. I am sure it will all work out for the best in the end. God willing.
  14. Prayer lamp is lit up here.
  15. That is worse than what I had. The doctor basically went in and did a Roter Rooter on the disc to ease the pressure on the nerve. It definitely helped the pain I was having at the time, but I now have a disc that is severely damaged, so I get more back pain than I had. Overall, it has been an improvement, it is just different than I had before.
  16. @clint64 and @Norcalnewb I hope there will be some resolution to the back issues you are suffering that will allievate the pain.
  17. In my seats in Dallas after a great two pass at the hotel...

    See you guys tomorrow!
