    Thanks, Joe. I could probably get away with an every other day shave since my beard is now 99% white, but I like to shave. :)

    Man, that Stoylin Glacial Sharp Dressed Man felt niiiice this morning upon application(the soap and A.S. both). With these hot temps, there's really no choice but to do the freezing shave.Especially given my hospital stay due to syncope(fainting, low hydration). Will do a repeat tomorrow,(although it will be SLIGHTLY cooler than today). Don't get excited @Yehuda D...this is not to say I'll be using Aqua Velva on Christmas.

    Super picture and shave, Clint! You have inspired me to use my TGN Finest tomorrow. It has been a long time since I've used it.

    Have a great day with your mom!

    Yes, I have the same situation. However, I don't have a problem with using a safety on a daily basis, but I do need to wait at least 36 hrs with a straight. I believe that because the shave is closer with a straight that my stubble needs more time to grow to use a straight with less effort.

    I'm going to the Dollar Store later this morning, just for the excuse to be somewhere with AC. Course my apt. has it, but it isn't as strong as that in my car. WHo know, maybe I'll enable myself to get something for a dollar...maybe something else for another dollar.

    You can order them from Doc Ezlovan and the gang. They come in small vials, which you just squeeze and the coldness comes out. Best to squeeze into soaps just before shaving.

    Thank you Danny. Mom asked me to handle getting her bills paid and keep up with her banking needs. Since I’ll be out of town next weekend, I need to get all that done today as well.

    Thank you Jim. I remember when the TGN Finest was the knot of choice for custom brush makers. I still enjoy the scrub and scritch when face lathering. I hope you have a great day as well.

    Excellent photo and shave Jim. What do you think of the WSP Sandalwood scent? Is it a good match with the Fine aftershave?
