    Won't need glue if I can figure out this honing process. Imagine the buffing!

    Thank you gentlemen. Blair, I've been rocking a goatee for about 6 months now. I figure shaving my head makes up for the parts I leave on my face . I'm about 8 chapters into this book and I love it . Great read.

    Then we'll have a hormone discussion. The twins are only eight but it's starting. Glad my daughter already had her hysteria-ectomy.

    Thanks, Clint. It feels like I have taken a few steps backwards, recently.

    I credit you with a portion of my SBAD. Love a R-400 handle, or a replica like I have.

    That often happens to me just before I take a few big steps forward. I'm sure you will get the SR thing sorted out soon.

    Just the Basics June!!

    June 30

    Razor - Gillette New Deluxe SC
    Blade voskhod-teflon-coated.jpg (1)
    Soap - Stirling Sheep small stupid sheep.jpg
    Brush - 2019 Meet UP LE
    Post - Alum

    Let's take June out with a Sheep Sunday shave, shall we? I'll switch to the Gillette New Deluxe SC in its glorious new replate, mix in a Voskhod and set up for total success. Lay down some Stirling Sheep with the meet-up brush (I still have 6 of these available for $30 - how in the WORLD do I still have 6 of these gorgeous brushes.....somebody needs to buy themselves a brush out there) and take a nice leisurely trip through three passes. I did shave my head ahead of this shave so I'm kind of in the zen of the moment anyway. The ultra-slick and cushy mutton tallow soap provided the perfect glide and I really didn't need all three passes, just kept going because I could. Baby is in the house, my face feels fantastic and the alum is quiet. Thus ends June and I couldn't have ended it better.

    Monday looms. Don't let it get you down. Jump all over it and have a great week! And a great new month too!
