That my friends is an empty tub. 🤗
Used my one and only Italian Razor
C. Di Ricco &Figli. Razor
Omega Boar
Aqua Velva
Last of the Queen of Hearts, good soap but the scent did not grown on me. The Hipster is nice. And other scents will be on my radar from them.
Hope you guys have a great rest of the night.

Yikes everyone is posting up. And I almost wound up on page 2 of the journals. Lot's of great posts and vids being put out All of this FREE entertainment. The Chi Comm's didn't think that unleashing a pandemic on the world would result in something this good.:cool:
I shaved last night. Very late. So didn't post up. The razor for last night was tugging just a bit. So that is not up to my standards. This hunk of Sheffield steel had a hot date with my Dan's Trans Arkie. Rub a dub dub. And voila! Smooth sailing over my rugged chiseled features.
Tonight's shave.
CBL Premium Breakfast Blend
Bengall Razor
AP Cashmere
CHH Tobacco AS

Now just in case any of you are starting to get jealous of the awesome world that I dwell in.
There are always things that pop up to whittle away at my happiness. Keeping me firmly entrenched in my Curmudgeon mindset.
Like many other times. The source of my annoyance, comes from my wife's adult children and their spouses. Tomorrow I get to drive down to my daughter and son-in laws place. And help him plug the tire on my daughter in laws car. He's a nice kid. But his folks didn't do him any favors. He is not prepared to take on life. This time I am going have him do it. And I'll instruct. Then he will be gifted the tools. Give a fish or teach to fish. You guys know the drill.
Have a good weekend guys.

indeed, some of the kids these days could not tear their way out of a paper sack. LOL
 
There are many things I learned from my old man. For which I am thankful. Many I learned from the different jobs I have had over the years.
But I guess what frustrates me is the quickness in which they give up. And don't avail themselves of the almost limitless amount of tip/cheats and knowledge. That can be accessed on Youtube/internet.
Those of us born and raised pre-internet. Remember encyclopedia's and popular mechanics books. Trips to the library. Repair manuals were worth their weight in gold. All of those were finite. There was no way you could have every book, manual and periodical.
I frequently search through youtube to find out if someone has posted up a better easier way to tackle a project.
Old guy rant over.
 
Nice looking set-up Ken! I like the story to top it all off, some may say it would have been video worthy!
 
Good day today. Got the son in law trained up on putting tires plugs in.
Worked on re-purposing an old dresser into a sewing table for the missus.
And took this Gong razor for a few laps on the hones Shogun Style. TM, Patented, Copywrite, Proprietary, secret process.
The result with an ensemble cast of Tabac products. Would be difficult to surpass.
Video over in that section.
Have a good Saturday guys.
