I understand perfectly. Each summer my wife and I go to Yachats, Oregon, and stay in a little cabin on a bluff over the beach, where we were married. No telephone, no TV, no WiFi or Web access, I don't there's even cell phone service, just the waves and sun and breeze, gliding birds, and spouting wh...

One of my favorite artists, and as has been said, much more impact when seen in person. After I was privileged to see a few of his works in the Museum of Fine Arts in Houston, I obtained photoreal giclee prints, with textured "brush strokes" on the canvases, of his Peach Tree in Bloom and ...

I have filed one complaint with the BBB, and little came of it, just a query to the business and a later question to me asking about outcome, but no action. Subsequently I filed a complaint with my state attorney general's consumer protection office, and they quickly contacted the business (a large ...

I think the modern multi-bladed cartridge razors work great. They just aren't nearly as much fun. I'll stick with my DEs. +1 I have both powered and unpowered Fusions, which I bought for the shipping cost (here on BST I believe) a while back, but haven't used them. They're just sitting in a box for...

WTB: Somerset Simpsons

Just my monthly reminder that I would like to buy Somerset Simpsons, both bests and supers. I'm especially looking for 50s Series, Commodores X1 or X2, Dukes (any size), Emperors 2 or 3, PJ1, Polo 10, Tulip 1 or 2, and Wee Scot. If you sell me your Somersets, you won't have to see these ads any more...

That's quite a good price, right at the bottom of the range at which these have sold on the forums. If I didn't already have a Heritage 2XL I'd certainly be interested. Someone really ought to go for this great brush.

I haven't used the EdT, since I can't use any colognes at all, but I do like the Polo aftershave balm, as well as the Safari balm. Subtle but distinctive. I also like Armani Code.
