You can work “night shift” anywhere. In Baltimore you can go to “Nightshift”.

I used to get great burgers at the Ponca Bird pub right across the street from Nightshift. Sadly, it closed right around the same time as the GM plant.

No, I lived in Annapolis from 86 to 92, then in Rockville from 92 til I moved to Baltimore in 96. I was there until I moved to just outside Nashville three years ago. I hope to someday return to Upper Fells Point. I really miss Maryland.

Decent shave tonight. Used a new to me razor. I wanted to get a Wacker or Dorko and finally found one at a reasonable price. Seller said it was shave ready, but it wasn’t. I powered through and thought oh well. Just means that I need to hone it myself. Used my MWF combined with Haslinger soap. The first two passes were exactly puke MWF. Very airy and dissipated very quickly. My third pass I used the syringe to get water deep in the bristles and that made a total difference. Pass three and cleanup had some fantastic lather. Very good cushion, great slickness and post shave feel was pretty darn amazing. Now I know what I need to do next time!
Thanks for reading Cadre and I hope y’all had a great Friday!

Thanks guys! The razor is a beauty and the soap was great once I figured out what I needed to do.

A syringe? Man you are dedicated! Glad you figured your shave out.

That is how I add my water when bowl lathering to try and take the guess work out of it. Thanks Don!

Look at you getting all precise. Just what my wife needs to see on my shave shelf ,a syringe. Another gadget. I can hear her now. "What is that for!"

Mine thought it was for the baby because it is one of the toddler medicine syringes that has different measurement stoppers. Then when she found out why I got it I got the classic eye roll. Pretty sure the eyes are still rolling as I write this.

I don't think the eyes ever stop rolling. Doesn't really matter the reason...

This is very true.
