Bruce was a pizza delivery guy? No way!

We had a local pizza joint in my hometown that was probably my similar to Mandy’s...one parlor, family owned for the longest timely , best slices I’ve probably had to this day. A shame they sold out to a chain a number of years back, it just wasn’t the same.

Pizza delivery put money in my pocket when I was in college. Mandy's started as one shop, grew to about a half-dozen around the city, then all were sold and the original owners moved to California and opened another similar business. Locally, there is one left, and it keeps very busy. They've kept old favorites and expanded the menu some. I still enjoy their food.

DFS+ in a relaxed shave.

Getting accustomed to progressive lenses on new frames. Smaller focal areas, but less jarring transitions between the three focal lengths. So far, so good.

Actually my birth year is in my avatar, so I'm not young. ;)

Nice shave today. Two-pass, didn't go ATG on my chin or upper lip. Going to the office for a half-day tomorrow, then back home to finish the work day. I don't know why I bother to shave for work - whenever I'm out of the office I'm wearing a mask.

Near-perfect BBS today. Sorry I missed the zoom call last night - I lost track of time and realized 25 minutes into it. Since the Bingo game was underway I didn't want to join in late. I'll set an appointment alarm for the Sunday call, whatever time it will be. Enjoy your shaves!
 
Feel free to join in any time! It was still going when I got off 4hrs later. People come and go throughout. @Cvargo needs to remove that thing about a "hard stop" on the zoom instructions.
