Good morning Cadre! Hope you had a great weekend.

Feeling lazy so YOU are the DJ today! Post up a tune that you're really enjoying at the moment (I'm really looking for new ideas in music ;) )

Great shave this morning. Great lather and performance from the A&E soap. Scent probably wasn't the best idea in this Alabama heat and humidity. A little much. Definitely a late winter / early spring type scent IMO. Probably going into storage until then. Nice scent, though it's a little sweet. Soap and splash and a spray of Hemingway Accoutrements "Souks of Morocco" EdP. The spice in the frag balanced the sweet floral of the splash.

Hope you have a great day. :)

I just love the slow deep beat of that one. Would like to know of anything else similar.

That whole song is full of awesome lines!

Good morning Cadre! Hope you had a great night.

Let's get some tunes rolling this morning. Gonna go with a few from John McLaughlin off his 2006 album, Industrial Zen. Hope you enjoy!




Great shave (and better scent choices) this morning. Had I realized what day yesterday was I would have used this soap (it was National Bourbon Day). C'est la vie.. Nice mild scent and stellar lather. Two passes and a touch-up was all that I needed. Finished with a splash of Epsilon Amber which I will get a full bottle of eventually. Great "Original Floid" scent and not the watered down disappointment that they're selling now (talking about the Italian version, not the Spanish one). Finished with a spray of Versace Man "Eau Fraiche". Think it has enough "old man" characteristics to let me pull it off. Excellent!

Hope you have a great day. :)
