Rene's daughter did not make breakfast as she met up with a friend for the morning.
    I left for home with several samples of shave cream to try and I left Rene with my Engstrom Ivory Scale Frame Backs to try out. I hope he enjoys them as I do.
    The ride home was fast. I ran the highway with a Mercedes Benz SLS Gull Wing 6.3. The car sounded amazing and looked very sinister. the first 110 miles went by quickly. The last 8 miles took an hour.


    Bill, as soon as I return from Florida in mid May, DC is my next stop.
    Jeff it was great meeting with you also. I had a great time. Hopefully we can do it again sometime. I hope you like the SC samples. Thank you for loaning me the razors. They are beautiful.

    This soap and hone (along with some other stuff) were gifts to myself for finishing the insanity workout program for the first time.

    I like it. I got the sampler to test them all out and get what I trully love. I only tried the Trafalgar as of now. The cream was nice and so was the AS. My wife said she likes the scent as well. It is defintly better then some of the other stuff I have this is for sure top notch stuff.

    How did you hear that? I haven't Hijacked him, I have "HiMaxed" him, LOL. Don't worry about your razors. If he's got it, you'll be getting them back and you'll be very happy.

    Hey Oscar,
    Man...this thing has really knocked you down, eh? Hang in there...Seems like you got one of those nastier types. I had in back in January and I was out for 10 days (literally horizontal 85% of the time)

    Today's shave:

    Andy,
    I know what you mean by not having to heart to retire that steel...she is a beauty indeed. That Buddel looks stunning too. Wowww!!!!

    Paul,
    Congrats on several fronts. getting the pre-shave ritual worked out (very important) and taking your time to get a niiiiiiice shave at the end. Also, your photos rock. I enjoy them very much. The T&H Trafalgar is an awesome scent (along with the Grafton). Keep rocking and happy shaving

    Wowwww Mark. Can't get smoother than that buddy.

    PS: Yummmm...that sounds like a fun afternoon with lots of good food and family to share it with.

    Sounds like a wonderful day Jeff. The Gull Wing is a beautiful car. Sinister is an understatement. Who won? Your Vette or it, LOL?

    Congrats on your Henckels. They're fabulous shavers? How did you like it? Also, +1 to the T&H Trafalgar

    Trevor,
    That's a great way to describe this shave. Congrats on 3 fronts: (1) the SRD Vetiver (I have it. it is awesome indeed), (2) the hone (Those Oozuki Asagis are some of the finest out there), and (3) Your insanity to finish the Insanity workout. Wife and I are having our a**es kicked by the P90X (thanks to Rene). Can't even imagine what the insanity will feel like. My hat's off to you.

    Well, I had a nice "drive" with the gentleman. No winner or looser since street racing is very dangerous as we all know. I will say that the Gully sounded awesome. You can hear that AMG exhaust easily.
