    Assuming XTG is sideways, do you go center to side or side to center?

    Careful now Myles, there could be bloomaphobes in our midst whose manhood could be shaken by even the thought that an aftershave would blossom.
    :cool:

    Thank you for taking us along for the ride, I enjoyed the video. Looking forward to watching your progress.

    I have tried the feather super and it doesn’t fit quite right in the cobra. Also there are only two shaving items that are goodbyes in Korea, CJB shavettes and feather pro blades, a pack a blades is about $7.50.

    it’s a close choice, likely I would even change my choice tomorrow.

    Older perfumes tend to lose their top notes, I have compared some vintage and modern formulations of some perfumes. Another reason is because the European laws changed and outlawed some of the ingredients or limited there use. Also in this politically correct error a number of perfumes were reformulated to tone them down.

    Hi and welcome. 11 uses shaves on the blade is impressive, how you think you achieved that? Iridium Super are my favorite DE blades.

    Thanks guys. I appreciate the good words. I was both glad and sad to empty the jug of Vigoroso. A nearly full bottle of Jeeves of Hudson Street Blood on Steel is on deck now. I'm not a scent guy, so it will take awhile for me to describe the BoS scent. My first impressions are cologney !?!, sweet, and mildly spicy. I like that it contains witch hazel and menthol. My first couple of splashes this morning felt good, and I'm still noticing the scent after 90 minutes. This one seems to stay around longer than the Vigoroso, or maybe I'm just not used to it yet, or maybe I used WAAAAAY too much. :)

    Evan, I woke up groggy, so I splashed on a 'that guy' dose of AS. I was immediately filled with vim and vigor. I'm starting to think AS works better than coffee. :scared011: My Bride just brewed the second pot of Joe, just in case. We're not ready to risk giving up our large daily dose of high-octane mud. :eatdrink013:

    Tim, I agree regarding those pesky XTG passes with the shavette. I find them essential for BBS, but I either have to pay close attention to skin stretching or plan to donate some blood in the process. :D

    Happy Hump Day everyone. Paired The City with the "Soap Destroyer" this morning. The little destroyer loaded and lathered The City with ease. A&E soaps just flat work for me. Three passes followed by touch ups along my jawline and buffing my neck caught the little guy. A splash of Fine Santal and I am off to my office to work on some tax returns. I can get a lot of work done remotely but I find I am much more efficient on working on tax returns at my office. I hope everyone has a great Wednesday

    Anybody know where I can pick up a gently used CNC machine? I hope to stay ahead of @jluc and @clint64 this time around and be on the "cutting edge" with @MrEE. Maybe I can make my own watch parts. I've always wanted a watch case back with flames inscribed on it.
