Open comb Double Edge Razor Head

Have shaved several times w/open comb razor now and must say it is really a different experience. I am surprised. A good experience. Have been using a Lavender Cream and found it a bit thick, would clog the head - not sure what you call it, and did not care for that. With the open comb it was not a ...

I agree w/what you said and also have a problem that no body is reporting water slowly creeping above the standard. I realize the earth is mostly water but they are talking a rapid erosion of ice bergs just w/in the last decade. I'm at 8k feet so won't be a probelm in my lifetime. The movie has all ...

Kicking and screaming . . .

Some 30 years ago I was employed by an agency that allowed a lot of freedom in the course of my duties. There was about 30 of us and some abused that freedom and reform was needed. Enter the ‘gunslinger’. In the course of reform he often used that phase - kicking and screaming, and often applied it ...

Earlier this week watched the sad events surrounding Christopher Dorner’ chase, capture (sorta) and then death.
