Well after coming home and seeing a house around the corner from me with the roof collapsed. I decided to finish my roof. I climed up to the top and started shoveling. There was over 2 ft on the roof. It was HEAVY! I was so surprised at how much weight was up there. No wonder so many roof are coming down.

I recieved this cream from Bill. I dont think i got the right lather. It seemed thin. I got this razor from ebay. Threw it in my box. When i was going through the box i checked the edge. Seemed sharp. Well YUP she is. I dont know if its the blade or the cream. No irritation at all. 3 passes and a SWEET BBS Shave.

I think you deserved a sharp razor after being up on the roof! How do you keep from slipping? Nice Post!

Thanks! I always stayed standing in deep snow which keep me from falling. Tried not to scrape the shingles. Then climed REAL SLOW back to the top. LOL! If i were to fall of i would prefer the front. The back is a 2 story drop onto a deck. OUCH!

Great razor BB and nice concoction. I must say Glycerin is actually is great moisturizer...but, ONLY if there's a lot of moisture around (like in your lather). If lather is dry, Glycerin will suck the moisture out of your skin giving you the sensation of razor burn.

I favorize Mate in different mixtures.

We love mixed teas. We actually picked up some Chocolate Rooibos and Chocolate Peppermint tea from this little shop in Lake Arrowhead a few weeks back...When brewed, they are fantastic. We have so many more that it is impossible to list them all here.

Wowwww Rene...Glad it wasn't yours though. Are the people inside safe?

QCS is great...I got a sample from Matthew and really like it. Took me a couple of tries to get the right ratio of soapater, but it produces some nice lather. Make sure you use enough soap...you need ~2-3x more than usual with this one

Also, great score from the Bay...that's a nice blade
