Here's a little tip for you Silks----> After a shave like that take your dog to a public park. Put a leash on him and go for a walk. Dogs attract women like a magnet. I call it "Trolling for girls."

They really are magnets. Let me tell you what I found works even better... I am very lucky to still have my grandfather around. He is a blast to hang around with. I stop in and check on him a few times a week, and we have lunch and dinner together often. Since he no longer drives, and I have a very flexible work schedule, I take him to any medical / dental appointments he has. Ladies in the waiting room ALWAYS talk to him as he is quite handsome and charming. Once he tells them that the heavily tattooed guy next to him is his grandson, they LOVE the fact that we’re hanging around together.

Maybe I should bring Cooper to the podiatrist next week too!

Surprisingly good performance on this soap, Matt.

TBH, I bought this to support the efforts of an 8th grader and her science project and that she had the initiative to support some causes she believed in, such as school lunches for students who can't afford them.

So, it was basically a donation as I saw it.

But when I used the soap, I was very pleasantly surprised. I watched their lathering video, and started with a damp-not wet-brush.

Face lathered with a Black Wolf Synthetic, and was rewarded with a very slick, very cushioned lather that left a wonderful face feel.

No surprise on that-not only is it a tallow soap, tallow is the first ingredient. Yet, it didn't feel heavy.

The scent on this one was one-note mint, but very refreshing on this hot day.

I've got another that just arrived-Doc's Special Blend-the ingredients are virtually identical to the Mint Mint:
