The sad part is that I’m a network engineer by trade

Great looking shave setup!
Dude…we tried catching up on the Olympics last night…everything is behind a dang pay wall! It’s so obnoxious!
Unless you have a regular cable subscription you have to have the paid network access to see anything specific…so dumb

If you have xfinity you can watch any of your channels on the app or website.

Believe it or not…the major internet providers for the US have largely been blocked out here in SB; only those with a cell presence really have any kind of toehold. Cox has a virtual monopoly on the area.
It’s a little annoying
I know - It’s ridiculous. I ended up getting YouTube TV for a month Just to be able to watch them
Isn’t it wild that we’re supposed to have all this competition and yet it ends up being one provider. We have Xfinity here for the next town over has a local provider- Who is it agreement with Xfinity that they won’t encroach. It was a little while back did they had an outage thar the whole town was without Internet for about two weeks.Believe it or not…the major internet providers for the US have largely been blocked out here in SB; only those with a cell presence really have any kind of toehold.

I would expect riots
There almost was,
! The upside was all my teenagers who normally would hang out with your friends all of a sudden thought hanging with dad was cool haha (i’m sure the fact that I would do the next town over had nothing to do with it LOL)
This is probably the greatest thing about our hobby! If you would have told me seven years a go that some of my favorite scents would be floral...I would have laughed at you. Today...let me smell like Grandma!
Ya, that’s……great?
Pool 
time today umbrella 
⛱! Because it’s not the heat…it’s the humidity…….

Citrus. Check. Boozy. Check. Hints of ozone that give that “I’m at the pool“ sensation. Check check check! I bought this soap last year and it was my first foray into synthetic cool agents. And man did it deliver! The notes that are most prevalent are orange
and pineapple 
to give that boozy poolside drink type of feel
. It does have this slight ozonic note that really does make you feel like you’re at a pool. My only problem is the first time I used it, and I’ve learned since, was that synthetic cooling comes on slowly so I dumped a ton in my hands and rubbed it all over - face, head, arms, chest. When the cooling kicked in my teeth hurt it was so cold LOL! It;s like being hot and sweaty and then jumping into the deep end and that chill envelopes you - in a refreshing way - not a my brother is dunking me and holding my head under water way . This is definitely one of my favorite summer Shaves!
A little hectic this morning as I had to pick up my son at school. Apparently, he has come down with he slight head cold from when I dropped him off, and I had to convince the school to call off the National Guard - as he is vaccinated
. Just a little humor- his teachers are great - the nurse - a little panic‘d. No fever, he’s just a little stuffy. The med tech (he’s new to the school and my child) made it seem like he was sliming everything like Ghostbusters. I had to convince him - he’s special needs - just give him a tissue and have him wash his hands and I’ll be in in 5 minutes to get him and then we’ll do whatever protocols are required. His teacher and I had a little laugh about it afterwards. I certainly don’t envy the situation both the teachers and the med techs are in. Good people one and all.
A quick shout out to the first US military member medal - US ARMY REPRESENTS! Woot Woot! Amber English made us proud. We have 19 service members at the games.
have a wonderful day!

I basically go outside with a sombrero and a parasol all summer - even when shaving
#ladykiller

Thanks Chris - he;s still a little stuffy - for some reason isn’t responding to bribes like - If you just take a nap I’ll get you ice cream
Quick shave …..no pictures

Aidan is doing much better other than wiping his nose with everything but a tissue. Tshirt, bedding. I have decom‘d the whole house. Good though he is in good spirits !
just got a note from Tatara that they are now sending out the other reason I cleared out many of my razors. So good on that front.
have a fantastic day!
