I just read online that Pippa Middleton's butt has its own Facebook fan page.

I tried to establish a Facebook page for my butt once, but the profile photo exceeded upload allowances. (Ba-dum CRASH!)

Saturday

Proraso tub
Omega #80266 boar
Merkur classic
Gillette 7 o'Clock SharpEdge (Yellow)
Aqua Velva (Ice Blue, glass bottle!)

And off to see Archie for a 2-4 Ivy League cut.

I ordered mine, along with some Vitos tobacco aftershave as a blind gamble. I don't know AdP, but I've heard Penhaligon's Castile compared to it, and I love Castile. I've been wanting a fresh, classic cologne-type soap for summer. This sounds like just the ticket, and the fisherc seal of approval ma...

Thursday

Trumper Sandalwood soap
Omega #80266 boar
Merkur 1904 open comb
Gillette 7 o'Clock SharpEdge (yellow)
Alum block
Penhaligons Castile EDT

Good God; here I am complaining about speakers, and I see 39 dead in the South from tornadoes today. My sympathies go to all those who have lost family or property. What devastation.

I hope the DeLorean didn't have a Klipsch system. If it did, it was surely fluxed.

I've been using mainly two brushes -- my Simpson 57 custom 2-band super (aka "Douglas") and my Omega #80266 boar. I find that I use boar with the more "barbershop" products such as Palmolive and Proraso while reserving the badger for the likes of Harris and Trumper soaps. It just...

I won't be selling mine, that's for sure -- and I have only one, which I'll probably regret eventually. I think the key move was to make the loft 51 mm, a bit on the tall side. Phil and I probably spent the most time discussing this spec, and I think we came up with the right solution for the 2-band...

I'm wondering if those Klipsch speakers have a bit of a glass jaw; you can find plenty of online reports of dead amps. The sub was a wee bit thumpy; maybe I need to branch out. Staying with the 2.1 format, though. I talked to my wife, and apparently this lightning strike scorched a lawn the next str...

Wednesday 4/27

Palmolive stick
Omega #80266 boar
Merkur HD
Rapira Swedish (trial blade)
Mennen Skin Bracer

Edit: I needed to do a bit of extra work with the Rapira blade to get the job done around the chin and mouth, but all said and done it delivered a very close shave with no irritation.

Last month I bought the Klipsch Promedia 2.1 speakers for my computer. Apparently within the past day or two, lightning fried the speakers, even though they were plugged into a Power Sentry strip that shows as "protecting." I would pursue the matter with Power Sentry, but somehow I think i...

I just got in four yesterday. Teed up for tomorrow's shave.

Hate to see the #80266 go begging. To me, that's your workhorse boar brush. That, a Merkur HD, a Harris soap, and a Taylor cream are a perfect starting kit.

Monday

Merkur Classic
Gillette 7 o'Clock SharpEdge (Yellow)
Palmolive Classic cream, brushless
Pinaud Clubman A/S

Great results.

Nothing truly great is ever easy. Of course, most of the bollocks is hard, as well, but that's another conversation...

Playing off Andrew's "soap opera" reference. All the passion and plot twists of a daytime teledrama, but to do with brushes. Brought to you by P&G Tips and Col. T. L. Sprecklemeyer's Floor Wax and Post-Shave Liniment.

I think you mean brush opera.

Thank you!

Would someone kindly PM me also with Mr. Sabini's contact information? Many thanks.
