WOO-HOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO, what a delightful and FREEZING shave this morning with one of the most fabulous mentholated creams ever created. The Diana Sport balsam has no scent, so it won't interefere with a cologne or an eau de toilette.

I have been overseeing the installation of wood floors in the house the last three days and have not shaved until today. It was worth the trouble because today is the first day in two years that I can sit in the house and not have my nose getting athletic on me from allergies!

Have a great weekend Ya'll!

 

Cool Jeff, congrats! I never had any allergy anything until we moved here to MD. There is something that grows/blooms/emits something here that makes my sinuses act up, eyes water, and head ache, so I'm glad you are going to get some relief dude. What a PITA allergies are.

Holy Jeeze, this is the first day I have been able to shave since Sunday!! I flew to MI on Monday for a region meeting. Tuesday, the FDA walked in to my center for an inspection. So, I'm back on a plane Tuesday and host the audit until Friday ... I'm still not sure what day it is!!

So I must say, what a damn fine shave today!! And it's good to be back amongst the living.

 

Glad it's still kickin'!

With a fresh blade the junior I got a much better shave than with the previously used one from the first time. I definitely could get to like this razor, but I need to switch to the stainless blades. First time using the twice iced Blue Juniper AS and it was even more fahmazing than the sample I menthed up myself.
