Well,
I guess it is about time I introduce, or re-introduce myself to the wonderful Gentlemen that supported this crazy idea to go after a Goliath. So 1st and foremost thank you for the realization of an idea that Chad and I had pondered for a long time and Chris was so kind to join us on the adventure.
I need to specifically thank Chad and Chris for doing the Lion's share of the work so far, as most of the "old cadre" knows with the caregiving of my MIL, as well as my retirement , ( HAHA that is a joke) and my new venture, things have been a bit busy to say the least. Although skypsyd has a great deal of meaning to me, and made me recognizable at the other joint, I felt that, "out with the old, and in with the new" was a good choice with things that occured "over there"
So, as a tribute to the great Ferrari driver "Franco" in the Gumball Rally.... "What is behind me is not important ( and he rips the rearview mirror off the car )
So enough about that and here is a bit about me, for those that do not know me already. Here goes.
My name is Dave or David as it were I am 53 yrs old, retired.... well sort of, from a long career as a Managing General Agent and Brokerage owner in the Insurance Industry. A fall through a roof facilitated that carreer as I and my lovely wife Sharon were both Firefighter / Paramedics. She left that to become an Quality Control / Electrical Engineer for Texas Instruments, of which she is still there, but inching closer to giving them the flying fickle finger of faith, and retiring herself.
I previous to that was in the USAF and retired early (14 yrs) as a 1T2X1 or ParaRescueman.
Most of you may remember me from the B&B Radio Show. Good News that a new show will be gracing this site in the near future along with podcasts, a youtube page and more
Currently I am the Director of Retail and Men's Grooming for the Gentlemen's Chamber Barbershops, a line of start up Old school barbers shops.
I am a straight shaver most of the time and Master Enabler, LOL ( yes there will be aCentral Enablement Center re-boot ) I enjoy all brands of soaps, AS, and a certifiable Frag Head.
As of 04.01.2018 I re-arranged and inventoried, and realized I have issues....... ROFL
372 Soaps / Creams does not include samples of parts and pieces ( this number has gone up now that I get everything at cost from all the suppliers....Ruh Roh )
437 Aftershaves of Different types, ages and so forthe
152 Fragrances ( colognes, EdT, EdP, Absolutes and Oud Oils )
75 Straight Razors all in rotation
53 DE Razors both new and old
3 SE razors ( Gem, Everready, Injector )
2 feather types ( DX kami, DX Folder
Blades out the wazoo.
Will I buy More???????? of course... Will I enable... Not even a question...
Will you join me on this Ride...... I certainly Hope so.
Take care
