Feb.02 ASD2/Astra SP(1) ............ Paladin Sumo ........... Cella ....................................... Stetson milk
Back to the ASD2 this morning for an easy-peasy morning shave. Even with an Astra SP blade, this was a good way to start the day... well, waking up is a GREAT way to start the day (silver lining!)... but knocking out a shave while being a zombie is pretty good too.
It's Thursday, so that also means a busy day lies ahead with afternoon bridge and evening chess.

I do not know how you keep up with your schedule! You‘re a true example to us all!
Go kick some butt, Sam!

Only -27C/-17F with the wind chill this morning, so it was a great time to demonstrate in person the neat-o "throw hot water into the air outside and watch it crystalize" trick to my sister-in-law from Orlando who is staying with us. Can't really complain about the weather too much as it is a beautiful blue sky and it was -30C/-22F with the wind chill when I got up. It's much colder a few hours up the road in Ottawa, where those are the temperature WITHOUT the wind chill.
Shave was, as expected, meh-ishly adequate.

@Graybeard57 - the gauntlet has been thrown down - it’s time for a chill off between my favorite guys whose jobs are to avoid reconvening their métiers (@woodpusher, my posts are always Canadian-Friendly) ! Bruce, I think you’re going to have to throw in a few air conditioners - but if anything comes out of it, may it be another NHL Outdoor Classic!

Yeah, we're dopplegangers, but the question is "who is whose?"
As for the temp, I was out in a t-shirt while doing the "throw hot water in the air " thing.
I guess if he were Canadian he'd be wearing shorts.
Wait - we now have representation from the land east of Norway - it’s time for a Freeze Off Celebrity Shaving Death Match!

I like how youse guys read into things and provide me with street cred. I never said I was macho or tough; did it ever cross your minds that perhaps I'm just too lazy to put on a jacket or simply not that bright?

Dropped of my wife and her sister at Tim Horton's for them to meet up for a friend for a morning coffee and chat. The almost -30C wind chill from this morning is starting to go away and by tomorrow morning, we are forecast to be above freezing once again.
A nice and easy shave this morning and while the ASD2+Astra combo doesn't deliver a BBS, it is more than sufficient for me.

You get a Tim Horton’s coffee and suddenly it’s not so cold
