How's Your Day? Archives

Right. Now I remember. That's why it's such a mess. You have to mess around emailing him to get the final price and so on. Back to my original comment then. There's just no need for it to be like that.

 

Just makes me wonder how much business he loses because his site is the way it is. I can't say he has lost my business because I haven't done much repeat business with anybody yet. I keep getting a little here a little there B/S/T as much as anything else. Now that I think of it FragranceX probably got more of my business than anybody else... hmm I wonder if they have any Tabac cheap and free shipping again?

 

See, to me, my Canadian bud has the right idea... his site looked sharp from the beginning, even before he had many products to sell. http://www.rasagepoulin.com/ :happy088

 

When I first checked out the site, I didn't know about the "special" list, so I didn't even see the Tabac bowl. With a setup like that, I'd go elsewhere. And I did. The better price was one factor, but I could actually *find* the item I wanted to purchase.

 

right, it's all your fault. No one has to take responsiblilty for their own or their kids' actions...

that's what happened. One did it, the next day the same school and another on the other side of the city, the day after that, 4 schools....it was getting crazy. And then the news gets involved and incites this whole panic and people area demanding things be done to protect the children...

 

and on a shaving related note....I'm not a fan of the QED site either, and think it's completely absurd.

Like the QED sandalwood I got from Shawn though...

 

Evening all.

Just had some adult beverages, little Makers Mark.

QED has a crappy site but Charles is great to deal with. I love his brushes but you have to find the link on the forums to see them. I would have thought by now he would have had somebody design a more user friendly site.

 

The QED lime I got from someone (completely forgot who) isn't bad. I decided afterwards that no matter how much I love lime flavor and scent in my food/drinks. I don't like it so much in soap, AS, or Cologne. I feel like I am a walking jello/kool aid ad.

I only wish I had some adult beverages sitting around. Maybe I should go get some.. but then again, 4AM is rough as it is.

 

Yeah, I'm not the biggest fan of lime scented shaving products, either. I recently got an Ogallala Bay Rum and Lemongrass soap sample; the only scent I can detect is the lemon, no bay rum at all. Not a big fan, but I will try it some more, so far it's only been the one time.

I'll drink my adult beverages tomorrow night. I'm at work tonight, and tomorrow my parents will have the girls, and SWMBO and I are going to go to "Bluegrass Night" at the local volunteer firehouse. I can only imagine how much fun that is going to be...

 

This Col. Conk glycerin lime is the first lime product I've tried. I think it's fine for a change but nothing special.

 

Well boys I'll have to be the odd man out. I like a good lime product. Mama Bears Iced lime is a good soap. KMF lime is good too, but the scent is nearly nil. Pirates Cove lime smelled great, but did not shave great for me. Pinaud Citrus Musk has some lime notes that I really like; the Lime Sec is not quite as good but still ok. Stephan Island Lime is goodlyness too.

I guess I like them for the summertime because they are light and airy. Plus w/ soaps/creams the scents only last as long as the shave anyway so it all depends what you want to sniff whilst you shave I guess.

 

I'm outta here. Good night all. I think I shall try this new game I borrowed called "Dawn of War: Soulstorm" Tomorrow morning just for something different. Oh, after my wife and I clean house first. That's our Sat morning ritual. Clean house. Yeah. Much rejoicing.

 

I am with Shep on this one. I love lime scents, especially in the summer. In the summer it is kind of my go to. Winter I gravitate more to sandalwood and such. Still hit up the fruits once in a while though.

Well, my wife is now sick, and my son keeps waking up screaming. Should be a fun night. Good night guys, Happy Friday!

 

Well I have been meaning to use it again. However, I am testing blades and want to limit the variables. It is bad enough that I keep changing razors. Tomorrow, I am going to try the Mellon razor I got today. However, maybe next week I will start rotating soaps again. Other than the one Williams day, I have been on Tabac only for at least two weeks. However, I haven't had any irritation or nicks this entire time either (other than Williams reaction).

 

Night Doug.

My Saturday ritual sounds the same as yours. Help wife clean house, fold laundry and then spend the rest of the weekend playing with son and relaxing.

Oh yeah, I get to be on towing dispatch again to. Why did I think it was a good idea to partner into a towing company?

 

Should do some major cleaning this weekend. Daughter's birthday party is in a week. I have practice till noon and then we will see. It will be Valentine's Day after all...

 

OH, one last thing, Shep, I just packed up 7 razors for you to test.

 

I shaved w/ Tabac exclusively for a couple months last summer. It is a great soap to cut your teeth on when making the DE switch because of its superb lather and protection. If I didn't suffer from the AD's like we all do, I could easily have kept that my only soap.

Ok kids. I'm out too. I usually get roped into the weekend house clean-up too, but I'm on shift this weekend so at least I get out of that little slice of heaven. Oh yeah, and don't forget your favorite holiday and mine is tomorrow. That's right kids. The BS holiday made-up by women, chocolate makers, card producers and flower growers is tomorrow: Valentines Day on Saturday. rrr

Shep out.

 

Night Shep and Doug!

Yes... if it weren't for AD I could happily use Tabac exclusively. However, there are so many other soaps in the den and so many more to try.

 

G'nite all. If tomorrow's decent I may try to finagle gas money to make a foray into the MD antique shops. Otherwise it may be a day of WoW.
