No apologies Angel. Everyone already said it, but I think Rene said it best: We are family here. This forum goes beyond SOTD, photos and gear. It's all about the friendship/camaraderie and all the other things that give us enjoyment or sometimes sadness.

Ouuuch buddy. That must have been one heck of a bite. Heal fast and looking forward to your lawn mowing experience on Wednesday

ETA I really love that brush in your SOTD today. The epitomy of elegance mated with utility.

Notes: I love this little razor! It handles well and always deliver a smooth and effortless shave. 2 comfortable passes to BBS. The coffee splash is a great fall fragrance, a little sweetness from myrrh and with a touch of orange - and my wife loves it.

Nicely done Sten...It's always good when wife approves of scent too ;-)

I like yesterday's shave with this razor so much I decided to use it again tonight. It provides a really nice, comfortable shave. Either the steel in this thing is special or I finally got my honing to the correct place. Either way, I am really enjoying this razor.
The Razorock Soap gives a nice aroma, sort of a lemon scent. The lather is really nice and provides a nice glade and cushion.

Beautiful selection Jeff, but 3AM to go to work?!! That's just cruel man. As I have said before, it should be illegal to get up before 8AM, LOOOL. Isn't that RazoRock soap addicting? Wonderful stuff.

Angel, I don't think anyone's day was made anything but better by your post.

José, I can appreciate the odd cartridge shave every silver lining needs a cloud

BIG +1 to all 3 points

Thank you buddy. I figure every man needs to find and make time for their brothers before kick starting their day. After all, we are family...Of course, some days will be easier than others.

LOOOOOOOL. Some things are better left unknown. take it for what it is José...Slave or not, you wouldn't be doing it if you didn't love it. I really like the Spanish forum (Only if I understood Spanish, LOL) and you've done a marvelous job with it.
