    For you soap aficionados that like to see old stuff in action, I'm going to really blow your mind tomorrow or the next day with a video I made.

    Go on and add this thread to your watch list.

    A hint: It's at least 92 years old but probably more like 100 years old. And it lathers as if it were made yesterday.


    Edit: Here ya go!

    Also please disregard my error towards the end of the video where I talk about Listerine shaving cream. I meant to say Lysol shaving cream. Yes, back in the early 1900s, Lysol made a shaving cream that contained its Lysol cleaning product.

    In all fairness, he did say "Tomorrow or the next day"....But the mob is getting restless....it could get a little dangerous in here....:) And I believe most the cats around here have razors....

    People here in Istanbul want to know; since we are 7 hours ahead of EST do we receive the video broadcast earlier than our state-side friends....:drool:

    SUPER COOL !!!! Man, you hardly used any powder...Just a sprinkle and all that lather....Unbelievable !! Colgate sure put out a great product there...They should bring that back...:)
    BTW That '34 Aristocrat is so sexy, you two look like you've done this before...lol
    Thats the loudest razor feedback I've ever heard on a video, it was almost louder than your voice....I love a razor that does that....Looked DFS after 2nd pass...Definitely BBS after the Jody Yoda J-Hookin'....
    All in all a GREAT VIDEO !! I hope this will be the first of many...You've got a very hip delivery, lots of style and the camera digs you....;)
    Thanks for sharing, it was well worth the wait....And thanks for looking out for our ladies' well-being...Now I can allow my wife to check this out without worry....;)

    Nice job on the video. Some soap company needs to get powders back in production.

    Great job Jody! Thanks for making the video. I probably would've walked by shave powder and never even think of trying it. Until now......where the heck am I going to fit it? SPAD!

    The quest continues.
