Just watched your recent video and enjoyed the chat format. Tend to agree with your wife that in the realm of watches, it's better to have one or two standouts that you are tied to emotionally (although to your point, then it really isn't a rabbit hole hobby.) My Speedy Pro was a wedding gift and I think if I ever tried to convince my wife I needed to spend $20K on a Rolex Batman she'd promptly divorce me!

If we live in bliss all the time, it becomes our commonplace, so I changed up the razors again. This shavette will be my ride through 4 uses of the blade. Busy day at work today, mostly because I realized I have something due for school end of the day tomorrow. So research was done, rights requested to papers and got 'er done. Good Zoom call last night, and at this point, I'm playing the game of placing bids on eBay hoping to get outbid so I have a built-in reason for not buying a watch. Lost one yesterday and one this morning so things are going as planned.
Owner of the house got a guy to come out to look at the furnace which was made in like the 50s or 60s because it's been making lots of noise. We didn't care much, but we now have that guy living downstairs and it's right on the other side of his wall. I dunno what the noises were, but I guess he found cracks in it? If there's anything I know less about than if Tim prefers smooth or chunky, it's how a furnace is built. So the whole thing needs to be replaced. Good for us because our heating costs are going to have to drop significantly with decades of advancement in those things. Just hope they are going to move quick.

What’s your plan if you win one of the eBay watches?
Welp, depending on which one it is, I'll either show my wife what a deal I got or hope she doesn't get the mail first and ask what it is.

Well, I'll leave the existential crisis that I'm in for the Watches thread or my next video. Though I will say a special order has been placed in that area and arrival hopes to be towards the end of March. Every time I use this razor I'm amazed at how good of a close and mild shave the ribbon blade gives. I'm thinking I might turn up the aggression if I remember to the next time. And the oldest has started a job at Starbucks. She gets a free pound of coffee every week. Hey, nice perk right? If their coffee didn't taste like a smoked back end of a skunk it would be. We told her to bring the lightest roast they had. Somehow it looked lighter than most of their stuff, but they were still able to make it bitter enough you need to turn that $2 cup into a $7 concoction with sweeteners and flavors to mask the taste.

I’m not gonna ask the obvious question here.
I know what you're thinking Tim. What's wrong with the smoked back-end of a skunk. Not to sound snobbish, it's just not to my liking.

Ya Tim apparently Dave and Sharon have a contest one tastes the back end of a Skunk and the other Litter boxes. A freind to one, and married to the other. You see my dilemma, LOL
