    Using Executive Man today.....
    I nominate it.

    I got 14 days. Can you handle that many nominations?

    :cool:

    A nomination a day, eh Mr. Cawtuh? Xecutive has already been nominated by the way-the aftershave.

    Ooookay then......
    I used Tuscany SS and AS yesterday, I nominate them.
    Tomorrow I will use Dunshire SS and AS, I nominate them.
    Then Piacenza, Stirling for Him, Mountain Man, Island Man, Glacial Lemony Orange, Stirling Blu, Deep Blue Sea, Bergamot Lavender, Sandpiper, Satsuma, Glacial Lemon Chill, Lime...... That's like 14 or so.

    Oh... and knowing the special influence you have on the Doc, please remind him what a huge Brut Fan that Max Headroom is, and how he hates buying dupes that are not Stirling.

    Well, I don't know about a special influence, I just do the Tonys (course I'm a customer, too, chuck yuk yuk) . You may well be on to something with your numerous nominations rigjt prior to the Tony Nomination days themselves. Perhaps by next year we could get something going. I will discuss this with my staff(that is, muhself). About Island Man, I'm enjoying that bath/hand soap right now(well, I use it as a hand-soap). Getting back to the special influence thing, I believe Doc Ezlovan has been that to ME....before hearing him say "cologne dupes"(at the Maggard meetup of 3 years ago)I never would have known there was a shortcut for "duplicates".

    Does Doc Ezlovan know about Glorious Stank?

    We actually used to have one. We called it Brutish. It just didn't sell well. It's hard to do scents that are still available on the cheap. Especially when they're cheaper than I can afford to make them.

    Maybe you should have called it "Got Namath Famous". :). I know, I know......corny.

    The business logistics are clearly understood.

    In the event you ever do a limited future in run you will definitely have my participation.

    I've used it for something like 40 years. Tried the Dollar Store knock off, which lasts about an hour, to dupes costing 3-4 times as much. The Stirling fanboy in me would like to have that addition.

    Hope you enjoy the meet up. Can't wait to see what you cooked up.

    There's a Dollar Store near me. I should go back soon. My first time there, exited through the wrong door-thus setting off the alarm!!

    That's a nice setup, Jim! How is the new Blood on Steel Soap? What about the scent?

    To my nose it's a mild cologne scent. I like it and as a bonus the wife likes it too.

    Rod, it was a pleasure meeting you, and this was the first time I shaved with one of your scented soaps. If I could describe your soap with two words, it would be creamy slick. It paired perfectly with the new LE brush, and its performance is outstanding. How could it not be with my three favorite shaving ingredients: tallow, lanolin, and shea butter? My Bride and I both love the mildly spicy scent. It smells great and is not overpowering. This was the first time I've paired a soap with the matching aftershave, and it feels like a million bucks. A big thanks to you, Rod. You created a masterpiece here. Thank you for your skill and kindness.

    Two passes with the Goose on two days of growth, and I'm ready for the day!

    Happy Monday!
