My favorite thus far is from Em's place. Feels light and washes off well after the shave. I've been wanting to try the Feather one. So far I've used shave secret (horrbile smell but available at walmart), PSO, Caswell Massey and a couple of others I can't recall.

Hello tm3, I bought the pen from Carlos Kaplan, a dealer in El Paso, Texas. A fellow North Texas Fountain Pen Club member made the introductions. Carlos has a Waterman Ideal with a medium nib, NIB, for sale. It is just like this Opera, except that the barrel and cap are smooth, glossy black, not ch...

Most portable music players will resume on the track at which they were stopped. It should at least be a choosable feature. Every one that I've ever had, has done this. Do you mean even after it has been shut off for a few hours? If the ones you have owned will do that, please give me the names of ...

Re: Talked to Bill ( The Ear ) Today

I was talking to Bill ( The Ear ) Trumperman today and he asked me if I really wanted to lose another 20 lbs. I told Bill my goal was to lose 24 lbs in a year. I want to pass this information along because that is exactly how my doctor presented it to me. He only wants me to lose 2 pounds a month. ...

Good job Tony. You certainly give me inspiration to get on the ball about my own fitness level. I figure if an old geez...ah...what I mean is if an older gentleman such as yourself can do it, surely a young whipper snapper like myself can too! :lol:

Chris, I think your offer is very generous and more than fair, now that it has been put into context. I would jump all over that. Your offer is a very inexpensive way to try out wetshaving with a brush and if he doesn't like it he is not out alot.

Hi Steve, I have found it at Albertson's grocery stores (don't know if you have those up there) and also at K-Mart. The Walgreens in my area still stock it and for a while the surrey soaps and clubman disappeared but they recently started stocking them again as well as the VDH boar brush. Oh and the...

Again, that if it's the one in their inexpensive sampler pack. i'll see if i can find a picture.... Here'...
