Thanks Chad, Still wonderful
Thanks Don, I have been remiss about getting a new show up, hopefully soon, and will place that on the topic list.
Thanks Eric, I am not sure I I sent that to you awhile back when you started investigating Barnyards, LOL
That would be awesome. Thanks Chris She did research both Botox and the ear thingy, botox went out the window after looking at the side effects, and the other is just finding a qualifier person, and the worry of the possible problems if they do it wrong
Thanks Dave

A couple of entries to get caught up on. Thursday was a nice easy peasy shave, will be doing a Video on Sunday on Shave Sticks and a review of La toja, so this will be short, but nice 3 pass DSBBS shave.

Another Chilly early morning before school and chopping all day. It was cold so why not head to the Mountains. A wonderful homage to Creed Silver Mountain Water, it needs no fanfare. It is just good. The Thater and Mr. Aces were in good from today for the 3-pass shave. DSBBS and a firehose Vassili, and a good day at the shop.
Think I will pull out and OC this weekend maybe even a New LC.
Hope you hall had a great couple of days!

Wait, what? I'm always slow to the party so I missed something here on what the Chamber soap is but the Black sounds like good stuff......
Great shaves Dave and looking forward to your video on sticks!

Nice early shave today. Chose to use the La Toja again, as I did a video on Shave Sticks. Also being OCtober I also skipped a straight today and opted for my New. A great razor, although I was a bit concerned I may slice and dice a bit, as it has been a long time since I had used it. Like riding a bicycle however, it was rather easy.
3 passes and DSBBS. finished off with La Toja Aftershave a some Vasilli's of Canoe. After Church, cam home took care of the "Farm" and rendered and posted the video from the morning. A nice, albeit busy, relaxing day.
Hope yours was too.

Nice shave Dave, I'll be watching the website to see when they're on there and more scents emerge
Thanks. I think when you have the Aviator (I'm assuming leather), I'll have to order that and the black.
Thanks Dave, if you want anything earlier just give me a PM
Thanks Chris

A non straight shave for two-days in a row?! Yes, the Apocalypse must be here, LOL. In reality to celebrate (although this is probably it for October) Tabactober, and OCtober I would smack to ducks with one rock. There had been some discussion on possible changes and wierd happening with Tabac soaps as of late. So into the lab, as I have an older puck ( 1yr old ), and a brand new puck just to see if there was any formulary changes that could be detected.
Bloomed both, lathered both, face applied both. I did not see any difference in fragrance, performance, or the wonderous performance that keeps Tabac on the border of Elite and T1 in my opinion. If indeed there were any changes, they must be so minute, that it is undetectable, or as Chad puts it, I have magic water at my home, and it will create perfect lather out of anything, LOL.
Except the new Crabtree & Evelyn, or Trumper's Eucris ( JUNK, TRASH, YUK)...... I digress
The #15 IMHO rivals the performance of the New LC, and unlike some, I find the Crat to be a bit more aggressive than the New, RFB, or SC. This is one of the few DE's that has bit me pretty good. We are on better terms these many years later and so far, just great shaves, when I dust her off.
3-passes today for DSBBS. Followed by the Splash and Edc for a Fantastic Start to a Monday.
