Proof that Greybeard is indeed old. (but in a good way)
My birth year by Gillette is C-1. Of course, you could simply look at the number following my name. ;)

White Rabbit is from Jefferson Airplane's 1966 Surrealistic Pillow album, which also featured a huge hit, Somebody to Love. I loved that song. Compare it to other Top 40 songs of that year and you'll find that the Airplane was very different from other artists of that era.

Refreshing shave today! I haven’t taken the Tatara out for a spin in a very long while - it is an excellent shaver. Going with a fun scent today and a light cologne - because we are off to the pool this afternoon and heck - it’s going to wash off anyway 😂

Did “manly man” things today - repaired the fence gate that had blown down in the last storm. Ok, I admit it - I had help - but I am proud to announce that at no time did we measure anything - we just winged it baby!

And it turned out better than I had even imagined (I thought for sure we’d have to get a new fence door)…….so that whole thing about measuring twice and cutting once - well that is for amateurs 😂

Way to go, Brian. Measuring is for sissies and professionals! (y)
