Ive done it a few times actually, most recently when I moved back from Ft. Myers about 15 years ago. It’s actually a pretty cool drive.
I think it will be.
I have only been to Disney world once. We will take the kids there when they are older. Disneyland is a bit closer so easier to plan.
The Shark Blade confused me also. But it works!
I know if you pay close attention good airfare can be had. So I am just trying to monitor it for a couple weeks. Hope I don't end up hurting myself and have to spend more though.

So today was another bad balde series shave. This time with the Sputnik blade. Honestly not sure why this blade was labeled as bad. Because it is not. You can read more on that in my bad blade series.
Today was new soap day as well. Using the Tobacco and Caramel from CBL. What a fun scent, nice green tobacco coupled with the sweetness of the caramel. This is an awesome scent! It paired well with the British Sterling which is a nice cold weather scent that I like to use this time of year.
All in all a great shave.

Well the game yesterday went well. Really enjoyed it. It was a very clean game with a very low foul count. At the end of the game we realized we didn't even call 1 offensive foul, which I think is a first for me. Today should be a more relaxing day. And tomorrow is a friend of Connor's birthday party. My wife and I are trying to see who is going to Chuck E Cheese. I wonder who will win.
Have a good day cadre

I was tempted by the Tobacco & Caramel scent but ran out of available funds when placing my order recently. Nice Chad

Well, looked and it's out of stock anyway...............AND Chris has some garbage about closing for a little. Probably some useless excuse about a vacation or family or something ?
Great scent perfect winter scent in my opinion.
Uh huh!

Well today was another great shave. Today with the CBL Ghost Banana I know some of the cadre don't like Banana as a scent but i'm telling you it's nice. It was a fantastic shave. The Sputnik blade is supposed to be in my bad blade series, well it is secretly becoming one of the best blades I have ever used.

Woke up this morning looked outside and couldn't see any of the neighboring houses. The fog has settled in and it was COLD outside too. That made for a fun drive into work this early morning at 5:30AM. Tonight I am taking Connor to a birthday party. Megan has some excuse of staying home to do homework! What garbage is that?
Well the referee shortage in Utah is real, I was assigned a double header on Saturday a JV and varsity game because they had to move some games because not enough officials available on Friday. I think the real reason is a lot of guys (myself included) blocked Friday so they could watch the PAC12 Chamionship game! GO UTES!!!

Sure rub in the fact you have Ghost Banana.........Chris, when you releasing this?
Mental note made...I'll make sure you get some ghost banana and perhaps even some tobacco and caramel (I have to confirm I have some fragrance oil left)
I will admit, ghost banana is as good as it sounds. Maybe I should mix banana and pineapple cilantro...
That's a pleasant surprise.
They certainly have been.
I played a little bit. But Connor wanted me to do basketball. Then I had all the little kids sitting around me, while I hit 15 shots in a row. Then one of the moms was like WOW you are good. Well I do have a background in basketball LOL, I played in high school, I coached for 6 years, and I officiate. If I didn't get hurt in high school I would have been able to play in college as I had one offer to where I graduated with my Undergrad at Westminster College a small div 3 school. Man what could have been. Oh well. It was pretty funny though having a bunch of 4 and 5 year olds cheering me on LOL.
I will buy more if it is made. And him mentioning the Banana, Pineapple, Cilantro combo that sounds AWESOME!
Yes they do have wax dots, the way I remove them is run under hot water, then pat dry on towel before loading first time. Always removes the dots.
Worth a try

Aftershave1: Humphrey's Witch Hazel
Aftershave2: Aqua Velva Ice Sport
Well today was another fantastic shave with the Wood Sage and Sea Salt by CBL. This is a very nice woodsy scent, that actually reminds a bit of Old Spice. I really like it a lot, but on the spicier side of things. Not sure if that is what Chris was going for, but it is in that wheelhouse in my opinion. The shave today went really well again with this "bad blade" that is really a good blade. But more on that in the Bad Blade Series. All in all a good shave.

It is here! the utes are in the PAC12 CHAMPIONSHIP GAME! Yea I know that it was technically a down year for the conference, but you aren't going to rain on my parade. Our head coach is 9-1 in bowl games. If the Utes find a way to win tonight I know that he can put in a good game plan to win the Rose Bowl. But first tonight's game! In my mind it is a Pick 'em. I hope the Utes win, but I won't be upset if they lose. This team only has 11 senior on scholarship! A lot of guys are back next year. This season was a warm up for what's to come. So everyone all together now GO UTES!!!!
