Happy Saturday, Cadre. Thank you @Spider for reminding us that Aqua Velvet is scientific. That’s important to remember. As the saying goes,

I just noticed a typo in my previous post. Yikes, I don’t like doing that.

Sunny and cold 17F/-8C today. I forgot about this AS splash from last summer’s Ohio wet shave meetup. I couldn’t read the ingredients label without blowing it up, so I put it on cautiously. Pleasant, sweet citrus flavor with very little alcohol. No woodsy or smokiness notes to my nose. I like it, and it’s mild enough for my wife to tolerate after about five minutes. Enjoy your shaves. 😊

Good afternoon, Cadre. It has warmed up to 31F/-.5C today. Woo hoo!

Upon further review, the Adopted Acres splash starts off citrusy, then settles into a nice smoky flavor. Good stuff.

Enjoy your shaves. 😊
 
You're supposed to wear it, not drink it 😱🤣🤣🤣

After 3.5 days without heat, our furnace was put back in commission last night. We put away the electric space heaters. How come furnaces never break down in the summer?!

Here are clips from two of the most memorable movies ever made, as discussed on the Sunday Zoom call. Watch and enjoy!

Happy Saturday, Cadre. Are you ready to watch Seattle triumph tomorrow? I’ll be helping out at The 3rd Annual Sober Bowl, where people will congregate to watch the game, enjoy good food, mingle with friends, participate in a raffle, and attend a breakout meeting if they choose. 👍

Wow, Queso just went end to end to score a TD, giving Ruff a 34-21 lead over Fluff! Puppy Bowl XXII rocks! Fluff promptly responded with their own TD. 34-28 at the 2-minute warning for the 2nd quarter. This is a nail biter.

I forgot to post Wednesday night’s shave - you’ll find it on top. Details matter. I’m really digging the Adopted Acres Imaginarium splash, though I’ve been a little frustrated by its lack of a reducer, causing me to sometimes spill out too much in my hand. Just a few minutes ago I discovered that it has a pop up cap that performs the same function. As I said above, details matter. 😉

A Sunday afternoon shave today. It’s a quiet day. I’ve got the Daytona 500 on, half paying attention. It’s interesting, but everyone knows the real race is on Memorial Day weekend. Enjoy your shaves. 😊

A beautiful, albeit occasionally overcast, day today with the temperature reaching 59F/15C. I enjoyed a nice walk around the neighborhood. Enjoy your shaves! 👍
