The Heysi Missive

Gillette Silver Blue........same as I've used for the past 40 years.
Do you always get weepers with a new blade? Or were you just used to shaving with a butter knife on that last one and need to readjust your pressure?

More of the second one and less of the first. Yeah...I think I was having to press harder to get better results with the 100+ shaves blade and now I'm trying to dig in with an actual edge. Going easier this morning saw better results. I tell ya....I learn something new all the time in this hobby.
 
Sounds like a great weekend of connection!

and one of them brought me the barstool I had her pick up for me from a very old, very famous restaurant in Los Angeles called Philippe's.
Congratulations on your well used bar stool, with hundreds of layers of thousands of people’s rear-end cooties nestled in its over-varnished perch! 😂

Great....now that's all I can think about. I'll leave it out in the Vegas sun for one day and that might kill all the cooties.
 
$5 for a tangible link to a baseball memory is an unbelievable deal. That kind of thing doesn't happen often!

My wife walked through our (unfinished) bar....and rolled her eyes because I was just sitting there on my new (old) barstool....grinning like a fool. I already have plans to mount a tv up on the wall and watch whole seasons of Dodger baseball from that exact spot. Beer in one hand and sunflower seeds in the other.
 
Last Knight it happened!!!!!!!!

With a 9-3 victory over the Florida Panthers......the Vegas Golden Knights won their first Stanley Cup....it only took them 6 years to do it. When the team was first announced here in town, Bill Foley, the owner, famously said, "Playoffs in 3....Cup in 6". He was wrong on the first part (they've made the playoffs 5 of the 6 years) but the second part was right on the money!!! I was screaming my head off all game in a pub filled to the brim with other screaming fans....and that scene was duplicated all over town. At some point there will be a victory parade....and most of the town will skip work to attend (I'm hoping that incudes me)....but as of right now.....Vegas is the Stanley Cup Champs!!!!
 
Congratulations! Great game, great series. Good to see the original team members raise the Cup right after the captain - classy.
The last 6 original Misfits!!! That moment got a huge cheer from the crowd I was in....I can only imagine how loud the crowd was inside the arena when it happened.
