Friday

Cool shave with the De Pews this AM. The last time I used this razor I think I was lamenting re. the edge. Smacking my forehead with the palm of my hand and saying ‘tsk’ a lot. Today, with no help from man, woman or child, the edge is improved. Waddayareckinaboutthat? I tell ya, edges improve; they soften, and meld, and go all 60’s trippy relaxedy like, with no intervention required.

Mike’s Natural Pine and Cedarwood soap was a great match for the razor, and Truefitt and Hill Trafalgar was a nice match for the Cambridge Blue shirt, brass (and highly polished) Vintage Royal Artillery cufflinks, Portuguese all leather (including the sole) boots, and black umbrella. I felt very well ‘appointed’ today. I need a Manor house; where’s my manor house?

Listening to the new Brian Jonestown Massacre album almost constantly. If you like 60’s psychedelic rock, get this. I love this band. It’s ‘leader’ Anton Newcombe, is really just a genius…

Top shelf! This was a combination that could not help but put a smile on my face. The lather from Manuel's soaps is amazing. It is rich and slick and leaves my face feeling incredible. In fact, my skin was so well hydrated that it took a while for the Lucido to even sink in. The Mk32, of course, needs no introduction! My easily accomplished 2-pass BBS is paired today with a new suit, new bow tie, and an incredibly positive outlook on life. My opponent in court today won't know what hit him!
