  1. I with you, like the X2 strength Bay Rum Cologne as well but my favorite from Ogallala is the Bay Rum W lime & peppercorns. Keep a travel sprayer of the latter in my truck for those last minute ventures around town.

    Nice shave bowl as well and wonderful news regarding the Doc.
  2. July 4th SOTD

    A quick and comfortable shave late this morning. The Clubman barber shave cream works swimmingly for a rapid brushless shave cream. I use it every once in a while but often especially use it as an adjunct post-shave lotion. I went all the way up to 7.5 on the 3rd pass today with the Emperor. Have a wonderful July 4th today everyone. Happy Birthday America!!
