Outstanding! That mug never fails me. I think I'll make a donation to my favorite charity as well.

Thanks much for the great gift and Merry Christmas!

Beautiful. Just beautiful.

Makes me wish I knew what a Wii is, let alone had one to trade.

I've definitely 'paid the price' for drinking whiskey. But Jameson Special Reserve is worth it.

In any case, a well made DE with a quality blade, properly used, is one superb shaving instrument, day in an day out. That pretty much sums up my expectations for my newfound tools. I come to DE's via multi-blades and kept trying the latest and greatest. Enough of that. I'm having good experiences ...

Well, thanks for the hospitality. My wife was leaning over my shoulder earlier and left shaking her head. She doesn't quibble with the shave though!

You guys who roast your own coffee beans: what roaster do you use/recommend? I used to use a Caffe Rosto. It's a solid unit but I found that it wasn't big enough for my use. Now I use my bbq with a stainless steel waste can on the rotisserie. Don't laugh - it's a great way to roast a larger batch. ...

I was at Plaza Cutlery at South Coast Mall today (Costa Mesa, CA). They have a basic selection of HD, slants, a Vision and some others I couldn't identify. Price was ok but no smoking deals. Some brushes too. Col Conk soap. Worth a look if you're in the area.

Hi Guys I've been a lurker at SMF for a couple weeks. Funny that this should be my first post. Do not - I repeat - DO NOT buy a Kodak digital frame. Their customer support is atrocious. I did last week to surprise my wife. It looks great and the pictures display great. BUT the wireless function refu...
