    Thread Starter: Teppanyaki

    One idea I have been toying with to help shave my biggest nemesis - the edge and right under my left chin (I am right handed) - to use my electric trimmer to trim the stubble down for a few seconds then shower prep and shave as usual. I realize that this is my technique since I can shave the right...

    xbox one or ps4?

    Thread Starter: Howl1nWolf

    Any gamers here? As this is a gentlemanly place it might be nice to discuss the pros and cons of these two next-gen consoles without all of the immature, fanboy nonsense. That being said I am leaning towards the X1 despite the negative press but I am considering the PS4. I'm always online so...

    Hi!

    Thread Starter: akamarcus

    Hi all, I just learned today what a DE razor is after coming across a box of Wilkinson DE blades on Amazon. What I have found out so far intrigues me, and I'm going to try the system. Shaving has always been just another chore in the morning, and quite and unpleasant task because I use...

    Cigar Of The Day (COTD)

    Thread Starter: jwhite

    Well yesterday actually:biggrin1: I had a smallish cigar about 36-38 ring gauge or so that my mother rolled for me on her last trip to Puerto Rico. Think a corona but just a bit thicker. Sweet finish as many Puerto Rican cigars seem to. I've had better, but not as much fun!

    Wow! Out of the blue, I have been asked to teach a sensory evaluation seminar for professional brewing students! All those years of beer judging and teaching BJCP exam prep courses seems to have paid off!
