I’ll just leave this here for your enjoyment…Don’t forget ‘93 when we laid the smack down on you guys to win the pennant! Sorry…the Phillies don’t have many great moments in their long history, so I don’t get a lot of opportunities to rub in a victory
Very cool razor, Clint! Glad you got the shave sorted! Enjoy the Stones! I recently attended a combination light/fountain/fireworks show to the Stones music at our local horticultural center, Longwood Gardens on one of the old DuPont Estates.November 11, 2021

Happy Thursday Everyone. I am working remotely today. Swati and I are going to the Stones concert tonight. I am officially excited. Back with the Pils today. The shave was much easier today. The angle is just different enough it takes me a bit to get it sorted. Overall a great start to the day. I hope everyone has a great Thursday.
Pirates' fans have been waiting since 1979, which coincidentally is the year I moved here. Pirates and Steelers both won championships that year, and Pittsburgh proclaimed itself the City of Champions. Since then, there have been two more Lombardi trophies and five Stanley Cups, but no baseball trips to the World Series. All in all, it's been fun to be a sports fan here.Sorry…the Phillies don’t have many great moments in their long history, so I don’t get a lot of opportunities to rub in a victory
The pirates have been waiting a long time. I totally forgot about that. You guys made a run in the 90’s though right?
1990-92. Bonds, Bonilla, Bream, Van Slyke, Walk, and Drabek with his Cy Young. Leyland was manager, and we were highly competitive. Playoffs: 1990 - lost to Reds; 1991 & '92 - lost to Braves. This was immediately before there were three divisions per league, and wild cards.
Enjoy the show, Clint.November 11, 2021

I'm glad you and Swati had a blast at the Stones concert, Clint. Sounds like fun!
If I were you, I'd put on some fresh duds before I visited clients today.
Happy Friday!
Thanks Clint, it wasn’t too bad. Stayed home with the youngest who was a little sniffly.
That’s what really counts!
Love the new brush, Clint.November 13, 2021

Happy Saturday and good morning everyone. A couple of new additions making their debut today. I made the mistake of browsing through all the various BST threads on different forums and saw this little Shavemac Beage for sale. Turns out to be from a group buy and the handle is a homage to the Simpson Eagle. I have always admired the Eagle and the Paladin Moe handle shape so I jumped on this brush. I can say the handle shape is very nice in use. I am a big fan of Shavemac knots in general. This is my first time using their 2 band silvertip and I am impressed. It does not have the backbone of the D01 2 band but it feels fantastic while face lathering. The Pils delivered another drama free 3 pass shave. Operator error let the baby escape but that's not all bad. @Scuttlesoap , Brian, gave such an enticing description of the Havana aftershave I was fully enabled. When I received an email with 40% off code, I knew immediately what I was ordering. The scent is very nice and well blended as Brian indicated. I get the rum and tobacco but I also pick up cocoa beans. This scent is fantastic. A huge plus was the wife's seal of approval. Thanks for the enabling Brian. I have a few items on the honey do list before settling into watch some college football this afternoon. I hope everyone has a wonderful Saturday.
Great-looking brush, Clint! Glad it performed well for you!November 13, 2021
