Rich's Journal: Adventures with Life and Sharp things

Feather AC SS Drinks n’ Dave’s

Lovely soap! Leathery, Smoky, Boozy, and it sticks around for a while.
Feather SS is a rockstar! I am reminded why I favor this model.
I tried to film this shave with GoPro, but it somehow didn’t happen for large portions of the shave. So
I gave it up as a bad idea to publish to my page. No worry, I will likely stick with using the iPad for shave videos
as I am more comfortable with that platform. My intent with the GoPro is for car content and vacation footage.
We will see how that works out. I wish the camera came with a manual.

Ugh! The picture I took with the camera is “Too big”. Something else to figure out.

Da’ Fat!

Woolfat and Skin Bracer
Feather AC SS

How great is this combo?! Mitchell’s is often used not only because it’s a tremendous soap, but because it sits out in the open in front because of its cool container.
We had some weather last night! Thankfully no flooding, and didn’t wake up the land of OZ. Sunny and nice today and Mama is off today. Probly out for a country run in the Vette.

Stirling Hipster and Klas Tornblom

A great Soap and my favorite razor make. I had a bit of a tremor going on this morning so only did two passes.
Still, came out with my usual DFS.
Going to try and get my grass cut between waves of rain. I took the deflector off so it won’t leave rows of grass that will need raked.
All in all a satisfactory shave.

Hold fast Bruce. Hold fast.

Hold fast Bruce. Hold fast.

Thanks, Chris, I’m good. I have a “look but don’t touch” approach to shaving scents, for the most part.

Hello and Monday Tornblom
Frank Shaving synthetic 19mm

A darned fine shave with the Monday razor of my KT set. I am working my way through the set to evaluate the edges. They are still on their initial bevel set by Alphonse many years ago. These things hold their age really good.especially if they aren’t frequently used.

These things hold their age really good.especially if they aren’t frequently used.

In a remarkable coincidence that defies scientific reasoning, I’ve found that it is the same for my DEs: the less I use them, the longer they last. YMMV. Works for AC blades, too.

Hooray!

Fine L’Orange Noir and Rockwell Model T2
Cadre anniversary brush

Two great passes for a better than DFS shave. Getting all pretty for an ‘ologist appointment today. Pretty important one.
The results are that memory and other problems are external to the brain and dementia is not indicated! Some changes to medications, exercise, and more external stimulation. Ain’t gonna lie, I wept. The small vein stuff on the mri seem to be related to the strokes, and haven’t changed.
The color looks funky because I filmed with my GoPro which was set up for outdoor use. I’ll try again in a couple days.
