June 2018 30 Day Rule/focus Pix & Discussion

Thanks Gentlemen. We'll see how long the Mike's lasts. I'm going to stick with it until it's all used up!

 

Great set up and photo, Jim. I just love the Red Tip and the Chubby 2. It's hard to beat that combo!

 

Take care of yourself, Chris, and I hope you heal quickly!

 

Charlie that does sound like a great way to spend the day with a friend. I’m looking forward to touring some distilleries over the next several years while visiting Maya.

Thank you, Charlie!

 

Completely blown away. That almost never happens with a new razor. The A1 rocks.

 

Are those still called dairy bars? Looks like several I remember from traveling around as a younger man. No matter the name it was called the dairy bar.

 

Have fun

Yes a great set, glad you are enjoying.

I wished you a good time what it looks like you’re having even more than just a good time, enjoy it looks delicious.

I’m hungry now.

 

Thanks guys!

Doing better. Not great yet. I am thinking 2-3 more days and I am good.

 

Good to hear you're coming around, Chris.

I've never been one to push blade usage beyond a few shaves. Based mostly on others' comments I hoped to be happy with seven face and head shaves with the Gem PTFE blades during my Cambodia residency. This was shave six, still quite satisfactory.

 

Back home and getting my shave on. Thank you @Enrico for donating the cool mug, I am glad I won it.

The vintage Old Spice is a great performer, right up with there with AoS tallow, maybe better. 4 passes to epic.

That works for me, Fuzzy, but in these parts, Mom and Pop ice cream places were just known by their individual names. This one was called Dairy Del. A few minutes away, there is another one called Dairy Castle. There aren't too many of these places left anymore.

 

Congrats on the new razor. It's a beauty!

 

Jim, I nominate you to be the 30DC Incident Commander! Well done on all the training. That's some pretty advanced stuff, to say nothing of the commitment to wear bunker gear on a 100 degree day. With your routine BBS shaves, I'm sure you got a nice seal on your full face respirator.

When the chips were down at my place of work, l was on-call as a Public Information Officer. I had the opportunity to sweat in front of a TV camera instead of donning bunker gear.

 

So many cats...and so few recipes...

 

Congrats Keith! Nice work!

 

Happy Father's Day, Men! I hope you all have a blessed and fantastic day with your loved ones.

 

Thank you, Charlie!
