A tremendous morning shave, although was half asleep getting the radio show finished, and glad you are enjoying it. Today's shave was more of a tribute to the fact that I started re-watching GOT. Interesting how may "easter-eggs" were in the series once you have watched it all the way through. Actually I am enjoying more this time around.

Anyway great soap, great razor, good accountrements all made for a nice 3-pass DSBBS ( Dolphin Smooth Baby Butt Shave ) A splash, some vassili's and some talc and truly
"Bodacious Dude"

Yes, great show, very missed in the interim!

Is anything else coming out of the GOT world now that the main show is done? Or is the hype around it kinda gone now?

Razor: Ed Wustof Tridente
Brush: TSC 1st Annv. Brush
Soap: CBL Ghost Lime
Aftershave: Aqua Velva Sport
EdC: Royall Lyme Cologne Splash


Mid -morning shave today with in the continuing @dangerousdon 's theme month. Lime and Gree was today's theme. The Tridente is a very smooth razor and treated me well today. The CBL Ghost Lime is basically lime ice in a soap and is truly a face changing experience, especially living here on the surface of the sun.

3-passes and DSBBS, smooth and silky, Two generous splashes of the AV and a more Vasilli's than probably needed, but who cares if I fill the house with Lime fragrance today?! A talc finish and off too........ well no where really HAHA.

For those that follow here or on my Shave Videos, I am doing a rather unique ongoing PIF, so check out the Video today, once posted, to find out how to get involved.

Cheers and Have a Good Day.

Well the best laid intentions......... more on that later. 1st off Happy Mother's Day to all the moms out there and Happy Muthas Day to all the members here I call Bruthas. Hope you are having a good day with family, both in person and extended if need be.

The Shave:
Continuing with @dangerousdon 's theme month from Lime to Tangerine and Mandarin Oranges today. As stated in my Video Blog the Razor is near and dear to me for a couple of reasons One is that is is from Tombstone and a very important time in history, and two it led me to whom had become a good friend @uacowboy, as he did the restore.
BTW I am still looking for one winner from yesterday's video PIF and I will just say he may have some similarities to the name of my Razor... and as for today I will be picking a winner, but ya gotta watch to win. HEHE

Anyway.....The best laid intentions....... Shave was going tremendously and what does the "idiot" do ( ME) I touch my upper chin with the blade ever so lightly while not moving and BAM racing stripe OOP. So by DSBBS shave is notched down to DFS-BBS due to the "DOH". All the accountrements were fantastic and now in an Orange shirt, and in OrangeTangerineMandarinapalooza heaven.
