    Excellent setup and photo Clint. Did you go for a ride yesterday? That is why you are stiff?

    Thank you. I'm surprised you did hear my tell me I shouldn't go in the woods looking for a golf ball. She was very forceful. :)

    Broke from the edge longevity and maintenance testing on the Wacker Barbers Bride for a run with my favorite straight (and it ain't even close) the Frenchie from 52100 steel in vintage style 'multi strike forging' the My Fine Steed by Gustave Lalune.

    Rasoir Sabre instructs that their tools are to be dispatched in their "shave ready" condition - without re-honing. Based on my individual unit sampling, I can see why. If I could get all my straights to shave this well, I might not have so much $20 shavette exuberance.

    Used the Proraso soap, M-Bombed. A really good soap that I won't re-stock just because I like Stirling sooo much more.

    The beautifully painted Jayaruh #367 with the hybrid knot, which some lucky ball player was able to have some company in Louisville make his bat out of the stub got the call.

    Finished with Stirling Blu, which the guys at work tell me that it makes me smell like a female employee at a French brothel. Some folks have them experiences, I guess.

    I'm such a Stirling Fanboy...... I love their aftershave splashes because they have both alcohol and witch hazel.

    Great shave for the books.

    Thank you Doug. I haven’t went riding in a long time. I’m just feeling dizzy this morning. I hope it passes soon. I need to complete a sales tax return this afternoon.

    Beautiful photo Doug! I once slid down an embankment on dewey grass one morning and landed in a brook. There was a group of retired ladies playing behind us and they sure had fun laughing and teasing me. Bad day to forget my spikes .

    Paul Turner outside the quote(s) now

    Reminds me of my Dad...every time he finished the 9-hole course in Welfleet, MA(Cape Cod), he would tee up a ball near the green, and fire away into the woods(wherever it went, nobody knew).

    Switched to the third Voskhod of the month and obtained two nice and easy shaves. Things are looking up, smoke is clearing! Other than that...all is quiet in Colorado.

    Have a great afternoon and a pleasant Monday!
