    I gave this one a touch up last night, it gave me a great shave, but I still think it could improve.
    I dig the Cella sample Oz gave me recently. I'm a little surprised actually but I love the smell.

    Hope you had a good time. No need to elaborate on that though, we understand what happens in Vegas stays in Vegas

    Sorry to hear that, I have always felt that the phrase time heals isn't quite right. In my view it gets easier over time as we get used to not having those that meant so much to us around but you never stop missing them. You, your family and the friends and family of your mentor are in my thoughts and prayers. Your Grandmother and Mentor will live on the your memories and those of everyone whose lives they enriched.

    For Glenn, I am sincerely sorry to hear of your loss, and my thoughts and prayers will be with you and your family as you deal with these losses. Know that your virtual family here at SRP is with you, and if there is anything we can do, do not hesitate to call on us. While your loss is painful, know that those you held dear have now moved past pain. Never forget, but remember your life must go forward!

    For Robert, I hope your visit was productive, but that you didn't make too large of a contribution to Max's 401(k)...

    Manaslu | Semogue 2010 LE #66 | Almonico Bombaceni | Thayers Lavender | Pens Sartorial

    A perfect two pass shave. I hadn't touched the Manaslu in what seemed like forever. There wasn't much left after the incredible job done yesterday, but what little there was is gone now! As I slowly pull myself back together after Monday, I'm ready to tackle some work today!
