Good morning Cadre. Hope you had a pleasant evening.

In a Synthwave / Retrowave mood this morning so going with some streaming via ThePrimeThanatos. Hope you enjoy.


Great shave today. Went with ETHOS Grooming Essentials "Menalge d'Agrumes" soap and splash. New brush from Etsy. Finished with a spray of CK One. Not much more to report.

Hope you have a great day. :)

Had to turn on the space heater in my office this morning.. What the frack Mother Nature??? :mad:
RIght?!?! Man, I really need to get some of that Melange d'Agrumes shave soap. I only have one of Frank's newer offerings, and it catapulted right into my top 5. It might even be a contender for the #1 spot.

Good morning Cadre! Hope you had a pleasant evening.

Later post than normal today. Went and got my second COVID shot this morning.

It's "FREE FOR ALL" Friday here at WMRK radio! You're the DJ so post up the jam of your choice here!

Not a great shave today. My lather game was off. I've used the Victory soaps in the past with great results. Today, however, the lather was light and airy no matter what I tried to do. Face lather? No go... Bowl lather? Nope... So I limited my shave to just two passes in order to avoid irritation. Got much more feedback from the alum block afterward. Finished with some soothing Proraso balm and a spray a YSL "La Nuit De L'Homme".

Not the best start to the day. 😕

Good morning Cadre! Hope you had a great weekend.

Man, still feeling rough after COVID shot #2 Friday and a late night / early morning Saturday at the show. Took it easy yesterday but still feel like I'm not firing on all cylinders. So today's music selection will reflect that. Here are The Beatles.


Great shave today. I like roses.. Tired. Need more coffee.... :sleep:
