    It was a good game last night. I admit I added the LPL Vetiver to my list for the girls.

    I grew up an Alabama fan and then went to UGA where I met my wife. I don’t see either one of us becoming big Wolf Cats fans. We watched primarily because of Maya. However any day Florida loses is a good day.

    Shave 6 with the MMOC earlier today. Best shave yet with it, I believe. Pulled out The Lounge today for today’s Stirling product. Very green tobacco scent, within the same range as Tabac for those of you who haven’t had the pleasure. 3 passes easily took care of 48 hrs of stubble and I’ll be putting this razor away for a bit as I will be travelling to Vancouver tonight for work/training. I do get a bit of a facial tingle from the Lounge, but not anything that leaves any overt irritation. Just something in it doesn’t quite agree with me.
    I’ll be gone long enough to take a checked bag so I can bring a razor and blades. I’ve packed a G4.
    Have a great afternoon and evening all!

    I think we've set an all-time record this month on posts about Bay Rum scents and Ben Franklin's underpants. :happy097:

    That's a very classy set up, Jason. The MMOC is a cool looking razor. Congrats on your progress with it, and safe travels for work this week.

    RyX DoH!

    I'm glad it's been discussed. Bay Rum, not Ben's bloomers. Not being a fan of cloves it seems Jeeves BR is a good alternative. As for Ben's opinion of folks discussing his business, I was under the impression he was quite the wild and crazy guy.

    Razor: Wartime Triangle Tech
    Blade: 7 o'Clock Permasharp Stainless (1)
    Brush: 30DC LE/Pure Badger
    Soap: Williams
    Post: Alum, Listerine, WH

    No anniversary shave yesterday and no SuperSpeed or SE today. Instead, I went with a razor that has been calling to me for a couple of days- a Wartime Tech with a Steel baseplate and Bakelite handle. For those of you who read my other ramblings, this was one of the two Steel Techs that I wrote about a few days ago. After I wrote that, I decided that I really didn't like all that bare Steel and its commensurate potential for corrosion. Instead, I decided to spray paint both with Rustoleum Ultimate Hammered Black. (Hammered to hide any imperfections in the metal.) I need to touch up the undersides, but I'm pleased with the results and decided to put one of them through its paces.

    On the whole, it was a minimalistic shave but a really good one, extremely smooth and comfortable.
