June 2018 30 Day Rule/focus Pix & Discussion

Tom @twhite deserves the praise for the hardware & Jared @PickledNorthern for the Stirling soap.

 

My wife won’t admit she needs readers so she just uses mine.

Yes, thanks. I see it;'s gonna be 94 tomorrow, and the next few days. I'll make sure to drink a lot of water as I "Lewis&Clark" my way around downtown Golden, and later do hiking with my sister&her family(in Rocky Mtn, Natl'l Park).

 

My wife is the one that is good about carrying hers. Frilly looking things that she likes making fun of me when I put them on.

I'm reporting in to Neal @NCoxSTL and Chris @Bama Samurai that 200 more of these horrible baby killers have been taken off the streets.

They have been safely tucked away from the innocent, unprepared public in my Mostochlegmash box.

Which, now that I look at it, is getting woefully short of Voskhod and Ladas. Time to call Ivan and Sergei.
I do however also have a nice box of St. Petersburg steel on hand as well.

The Yakuza will have to forgive my lack of Japanese steel, but my beard more closely resembles that of a Czar than an Emperor.
I do have a lovely Japanese chopstick and spoon set, as well as some Korean style chopsticks if that makes a difference.

 

You have made a great sacrifice and I'll drink a toast to your courage tonight!

You passed the decade mark, and have super- (lative) girls in your life,,,,, a ton of hurdles have been jumped. OMG.

I only say this stuff cause somehow I, (A giant 6’4” redneck and a 120# pixie hippy chick..(I know )managed to raise a a couple of NHS and scholarship kids..... And now we are serious empty nesters....

It wasn’t all cause Ima sexy dude.

Mostly. You’ve seen my pics.

Mic drop.

 

We shall assume you have developed sufficient technique to actually use these implements.

 

I have. Albeit left-handed.

 

I'm a Lefty, too. So that's two points in your favor. I keep a couple sets of every day stainless chopstick in my silverware drawer. Is it Cultural Appropriation if you can cook your own stir fry, then eat it as intended?

 

Todays shave consisted of my prizes from the Shavey awards (soap and razor)Randy@BaylorGator and this brush was pif'd to me by John@screwtape . Blade was from Chris@Bamasamuri.
Randy...that soap is awesome. Fresh fruity goodness with a nice cooling effect . Oh yeah!Thanks a million.

 

Very nice Patrick! That shave shows the camaraderie of the 30DC!

Shave number eight today. An absolutely perrrfect BBS after a couple of days off.

 

It really does . I'm doing a Fathers Day PIF over at the TOST for a Gem 1912 SE and some shave creams and a new boar brush if you want in on it . Going to do one in here in the next month or 2 . Spread the love.

 

Not in but that's very generous of you, Patrick!

SOTD June 11, 2018

Prep: Cold water and Stirling mentholated pre-shave soap
Blade: Schick 'Chick'
Razor: Schick G1 injector
Brush: JR #41 badger
Soap: Stirling Glacial Lemon Chill
Post: Witch hazel, Stirling Glacial Lemon Chill aftershave

I am moving on to three samples of Stirling for the next victims of soap reduction. They are Lemon Chill, Grapefruit, and Iced Pineapple, all containing menthol, and all top quality as you'd expect from Stirling.

Today's shave was great. Whipped up some terrific lather with ease. Just did one pass for a good enough shave. All came together just fine.

Met with our realtor tonight over dinner. Things are getting real for selling our house. Work everywhere continues in a fury. Lots of things to do to get it in shape. Our plan is for the listing to go live one week from tomorrow.

Enjoy your evening!

 

That Dorco is my go to DE blade in whatever DE thingie I might be silly enough to use. Works great!!

Do you EVER buy anything???

 

Williams and Stetson tonight. Pretty basic.

 

Truly an awesome pic, Rick!
