I remember when Gramps was a fixture on the forum in the early days. When I first encountered him, I remained convinced he was using a picture of the character actor, Wilfred Brimley, as an avatar. Older members chuckled at this, because many of them had also made the same mistake. I was only convin...

The often blanket denunciation of cartridge razors and canned shaving products on this and other shaving boards is a bit overdramatized IMO. Yes, for many here, the double edge razor, shaving brush and mug, represent the Way, the Truth and the Light, but let's not lose sight of the fact that hundred...

And Ren, I have a TZ5 and not a whit of ability, and I get OK shots. Give it another try, I encourage you! The problem is that I started pushing buttons willy-nilly and now I don't know how to get back to the default settings. I don't have much patience for reading the manual, assuming I can still ...

Rufus, You're welcome. I've found the all cotton socks wear out much too quickly, so I've gone to a blend that has more synthetic content. These are quite comfortable and are not like the synthetic socks of yore. Simcan is reasonably priced at about $8-10/ pair. If you're interested in sock garters,...

Thanks, Ren. Are they available in a variety of colors and where can I find them? Danny Danny, Diabetic socks come in a variety of colours, fabrics and lengths - all at varying price points. I've tried several brands, but my favourite is a Canadian maker, Simcan , which I buy locally. I'm sure you ...

Danny, I tried sock garters many years ago but found them too troublesome for daily use. For the days when you don't want to bother with sock garters, you might consider wearing diabetic socks. These are designed without the top elastic band of conventional socks, but have elastic thread woven throu...
