Trials of a woodpusher: Adventures in chess, backyard gardening, and maybe whisker chopping

They don't sell tomatoes in the stores in Arizona?

It’s so hot, they only grow sun dried!

And vineyards full of raisins?

Another workweek is in the books, which mean I am now W-5 in the countdown

 

[woodpusher]

A short round-up of things.....

My little Godrej Round puck-o-joy is now just over a month is use and I'm still loving it. Great scent and great shaves. I've also been informed that soon I will actually get to try the AS-D2 I purchased back in April ....

On the work front, now that the Friday workday is over, the countdown clock says "4 more weeks."

Tomato salads for lunch nearly every day is also awesome!

So many good things, that I'd have a hard time ranking them. Well, actually, I can rank the top two quite easily: 1) Work + 2) Tomatoes!

Where’s your wife going?

 

[woodpusher]

In a month, "out of her mind" most likely

You owe me some Monkey Shoulder and a new phone

A few hours on the road today with my wife as she was feeling housebound after almost 4 months of WFH . Picked up some Portuguese chicken from Churrasco's for supper as we got back (@Somnos)

 

[Somnos]

Yummy @woodpusher YUMMY! Enjoy Sam!

 

[GearNoir]

Very nice!

 

[woodpusher]

@Somnos dropped off the AS-D2 which receently came in from @dangerousdon and added a crapload of blades for me to play with.
The adventure begins tomorrow!

 

[GearNoir]

Fun!

@Somnos How are the Blue Diamonds? What would you compare them too? Saw some for $8.50 for 100

They aren’t bad Dave and I would put them in the same league as the Gillette Wilkinson Sword (India). I like them as an all round blade they’re middle of the pack.

 

[Somnos]

@Dave in KY I normally bin a blade after about 4 shaves. The Blue Diamonds can go longer but as I said they are middle of the road.

Thanks Ed, yeah as soon as I saw middle of the road I moved on in thought. Thanks again

 

[woodpusher]

Have you used the SuperMax Super Plats (nice blades BTW) , @Somnos ? If so, how does the Blue Diamond compare to them?

 

[Majorrich]

Fun!

The razor that enabled at least 4 more razors!
