Shave #2 with the AS-D2. Again no blade feel at all. It's very weird. If not for the sound of hairs being cut I'm sure I'd be looking to see if there was a blade in there. Again, no problem with getting a BBS with it. Even chased a closer one this morning. Issue was the neck again. It got lit up with alum. Odd, because the shave itself felt smooth. Guess this will likely be headed to chickenlover Dave.

WMRK is taking us back to the days of the astronaut on MTV. Something more to it when we had to watch video after video hoping our favorite might pop up. Now they just loop it on YouTube. Lame. What's even lamer is I keep forgetting to bring in more coffee beans so I'm relegated to Keurig coffee. Before that I did the @Majorrich dog from every town method and combined the bean dregs from three different lots into one last cuppa. Not a success.

If you get the right pods it is not so bad PEETs Major Dickinson is the only one I have found, other than using the DIY pod that makes a decent cup

Not my favorite from Peet's......sitting since we started roasting our own. I forget the Peet's we had before the Majors. It was good.

Had to call up The Doctor after those mild shaves. Now the hairs are scared back to under the surface as they should be. On the weekend I think I need to try a midday talc to see if it's as refreshing and I'm thinking it would be.

I've been able to lay back at bit at work, but now I need to kick it back up. 8hrs of meetings today and I start my 2nd run at being on-call Saturday at 7am. Last time it triggered a pandemic, so we'll hope this time it's a bit more routine.

This is what I call my Arizona shave. I started with a forest full of trees with Stirling Pine Forest bar soap. Then burnt the whole thing down!
 
Careful @NurseDave talking about "burning the whole thing down" could get you on a list. :eek: Not a good thing.
We know your "OK" and I'm sure for a nominal amount of money/shave soaps. Many of us here would be glad to vouch for you. ;)
