Headphones

I have a pair of Beats 3 in ear headphones, and a pair of Skokz Aeropex bone conducting headphones I use both of those for exercising or cutting the yard. I’m about to take an airplane trip and was thinking that over the ear headphones with some noise canceling might be the way to go so I can listen...

Re: Is SMF losing its vigour?

Gary take care of yourself. I am a solo also and I have to decompress. I need to recharge and to do that, I go out of town. Even like I did to go to Nashville for a day, three hour one-way trip. Took Wife to Nordstroms and we had a scrumptous Italian dinner. I am a solo too and those sort of cases, ...

Re: Leaf razor

I've had hair cutting razor combs that used half blades, and of course the various shavettes, but not seen anyone build a DIY three blade from them. There is still innovation out there. Let us know how facial use goes - it sounds like it could be very aggressive on thinner skin... C. Don't know tha...

Re: Leaf razor

Update: I was out of the US for two weeks and took my Harry's five-bladed razor and a cartridge. Got back and started using the Leaf razor and the one-bladed Twig. That combo shaved me closer with blades that had shaves on them better than the Harry's with a new cartridge did. THe leaf has a pivot h...

Re: Free AOS tallow shaving

The smell on this soap is alright by me. Just as I remember using sandalwood soaps and creams, though there was at least a five to seven year hiatus for me. Lathers wonderfully - better than the artisan soap I was gifted by a daughter that happened to work at a place that did 'natural' soaps, lotion...

Cappuccino

I am not much of a coffee drinker. When I get up first thing in the morning, I cannot drink coffee for some reason. I would be more likely to drink a Diet Coke then coffee. I get to the office and I have a Mr. Coffee automatic drip machine that I use Community coffee or Seattle’s Best. My son-in-law...

Re: Free AOS tallow shaving

I have used the art of shaving sandalwood puck that was paid forward in this thread, and I appreciate it. I just loaded it on top of another nondescript shaving soap I had in a mug. It lathers very well and the smell is as I remember it. Kind of reminds me of Trumper is in a way.

Head shaving, new blades

Been using the Leaf razor to shave my head. Three half-DE blades on a pivoting head. Well, today, put new blades in there and wow, really close. Like the best shave yet. Can definitely tell it is closer than say the Harry's 4=bladed cartridge razor. Touch up with the Thorn, the single-bladed sister ...

Re: Gordon or Bernards66

Gary, if I recall a post from long ago, and Dr. Chris might be able to recall as well, his nickname was a reference to his high school, and the year he graduated. Somewhere in New York City, I thought.

Re: Free AOS tallow shaving

I’ll take it. Out of shave soap and was looking around. Loved the aos sandalwood when I had it but it was a cream. Have not had a sandalwood cream in like ten years. Loaded up on lavender and then Trumper limes and rose creams

Re: Gordon or Bernards66

I had met Gordon a few years back, maybe 8 or 9 years at this point. We had an early dinner at a deli in the mall in Tampa near the airport, International Blvd or something like that. I had his phone number at one time. Sad that he stopped communicating.
