Trials of a woodpusher: Adventures in chess, backyard gardening, and maybe whisker chopping

Not overly much happening up here in woodpusher land. Between correspondence chess, regular in-person chess, bridge, reading, finances, and attending a few smaller venue concerts by tribute bands (ABBA and Carole King), things are pretty mundane and I am generally able to squeeze in a shave before noon.


Oh ... and my NY Giants still suck. See? Everything is as it normally is.
 
My TV is via a the Firestick which can be wonky, so it's never certain what I am able to watch but if the channel is showing, I will watch Big Blue turn into Big Black & Blue as they get pummelled once again.

As for chess, yes, at the US Championship GM Yoo (still only 17) was very upset after losing his game and punched a female photographer from behind as he was walking past her when he was leaving the hall. Not good at all.
 
I'm working away through my RazoRock American Barber soap and aftershave and, after converting the soap to stick format, I am getting some great lathers. Yup, not meh at all! Getting ready for a road trip in a week or so to Florida to visit my sister-in-law and will be taking a few Schick Xtreme-3 carts along as those have developed into my travel razor of choice.
