Razor: Blackland Vector
Blade: Feather Pro (2)
Soap/cream: CBL Ghost Lime
Brush: Stirling Finest Fan
Aftershave1: Humphrey's Witch Hazel
Aftershave2: Pinaud Lime Sec
Okay today I paid a little more attention to the handle on the razor and I even shaved before watching @HandleBarberDave video and can confirm that the razor is indeed balanced just in an irregular place compared to other razors. However the shave was a touch more comfortable today in regards to feel. More importantly the overall shave was absolutely wonderful. This is truly cheating. BBS just happens so easily. I have a couple other positions I want to try, and am going to go with a different angle on my attack but I'm feeling like this razor is a win. Time will tell.

Took the day off work today, as we are getting our new AC and Heater installed. Should take a day and a half according to the guy. The company I am using is a small company but he is local to our neighborhood and he is honest. His price is fair and he lives around the corner from us. So it's easy to get him here if needed. Now granted I did do my due diligence and get a few quotes well on Friday we had a lot of company over and it was our warmest day so far this year. I walked past the thermostat and saw it was 78 degrees in the house so I kicked on the AC. Well it didn't turn on. Apparently one of the companies doing the quotes thought it would be a good idea to disconnect a wire, that was discovered during tear down today. Some companies are just clearly dishonest! So glad I am not using them. Half tempted to leave some serious reviews throughout the google verse as I am 95% sure I know what company did it. Anyways just a relaxing day at home and listening to the radio show.
Have a good day Cadre.

I know for a fact it wasn't the guy that we are using. Because he actually turned on the system because he was measuring airflow. Other company didn't even want to explain things to me as he was getting the measurements.

I've heard of roofing companies tearing off shingles while measuring so they can come down and say you need immediate repairs. It's a shame that there are people out there that would stoop so low.

Chad is next to Kevin and has the shaved legs.
Wrong again.
Funny thing is I am standing next to someone named Kevin and he was my best friend in elementary until he moved away.
