    I'm really liking the looks of those Kamisoris!! Darn it!! Why did my refrigerator decide to give up the ghost last weekend? Seems to always be something coming up to help relieve me of any spare money I think I have. Oh well, it will just be sweeter when I can get one.

    I have long hesitated to buy this razor. Now I´m very satisfied. This razor can be brought to an unrivaled sharpness. Unfortunately, I noticed that there is also foldable Iwasakis ...
    ...they are even more expensive.
    I think two good refrigerators ...

    Wednesday

    Razor | Wade and Butcher Special | Soap | Crabtree and Evelyn Nomad | After Shave | Tabac

    So, there I was arranging my stuff on the dining room table to take the day’s SOTD photo. As I was taking the picture, my smart arsed 15 year old son, who sat at the table on the laptop with hair pulled from his sarcastic eyes with one hand so he could look at me sarcastically, said, in a sarcastic manner, “How BORING Dad, why don’t you just use one of your OLD photos?”.

    “Yeah”, said the wife, bit boring.

    I said…well, you know what I said and took a couple more pictures.

    Then I got worried.

    A creeping fear; a loathing; a foreboding crept up darkly from the aftershave bottle, tub of soap and razor positioned ‘artistically’ on the ‘artistically’ wrinkled piece of thick white paper and struck fear into my VERY heart, into my VERY soul.

    “It’s so [expletive]ing BORING” I wailed (inside myself). "They’re right! Damn the critics, damn then all to hell!”.

    The next ten minutes went like this:

    THEM: Why don’t you do something different?
    ME: I’ve done everything
    THEM: What about that book?
    ME: I’ve DONE books. Anyway, I’m not really reading that at the moment
    THEM: That’s right, put a gun in it.. (as I reached for nicely patinated non-functional shotgun atop the dresser)
    THEM: (again) What about Autumn leaves? (as I returned the shotgun to its place)
    ME: I’ve DONE Autumn leaves
    THEM: What about some flowers
    ME: There are no flowers now and anyway I’ve done flowers
    ME: (again) Is it too early for ANZAC day stuff?
    THEM: Yes, they’ll think you’ve jumped the gun. What about one of your ink pens?
    ME: I’ve DONE ink pens…

    Then I had an idea about some splatters, so here it is…

    Oh, yeah, the shave was great…

    Yeah, I agree too. Here we sit, day after day looking at shaving related stuff, Googling it, eBaying it, etc etc, and every day he puts up something we haven't seen before. It's like he gets it from some parallel universe where vintage shaving stuff is just that little bit different to ours...

    I'm glad you included the fountain pen; I'd be staying the hell away from that razor otherwise.

    Lethargy is a bitch.

    Rise up, why mourn this transient world of men?...

    ...when you are free to slough your skin
    And become naked spirit, souring far
    Across God's Empyrean, you will blush
    That you lay cramped so long in body's gaol.
    Geezer, Mephisto and Deegee like this.
