The Anything Thread

[Rollsshaver]

Well, nobody seems to want my last Slim, that sucks!!

I am about to sweeten the deal up at midnight, but I reckon I should offer it to you guys first.

I will part with a tube of my beloved Aqua Velva Ice Balm, a nice sized sample of Proraso red, a pack of Gillette Platinums, a 1oz sample of MWF, and the H-3 Slim adjustable for $20!!

Yup, that should do it...........................

Now, as usual, this is only for the good ole' TAT guys. PM me if you want to take advantage of this deal, please.

Shep, let me know what you think of the Eaton College. I skipped it last time because I didn't know about the scent.

I also only have the AD's for soaps,creams and aftershave. I am going to only have 2 brushes and hopefully soon 3 razors.

I used a sampler of Eton College a few months back. I enjoyed the scent but can't remember it enough to describe it. I'll post an update later in the week. It shaved great. I remember that!

Rolls

Hey Rolls, did the HBS arrive yet? The other guys got their packages, and I want to make sure you got yours.

[burningdarkness]

I don't have RAD either. Two DE's one of which I don't use. The Merkur head is just too weird, and I can't master a good shave with it. The SS is my baby. Also don't have BAD. The Rooney for home use and a C&E for travel. I had a Kingsley that I PIF'd to my son. The other AD's unfortunately have a firm grasp over me and my monkey. We can't get enough soaps, creams or AS's. My cabinet is overflowing with those. <shrug> Whadareyagonnado?

For some reason, I can't stand the SS, Shep. The HD is my DE of choice. The other DE I was talking about is a gold plated SS. I'm quite happy with my HD and Feather blades.

I've picked up some straights and am working on restoring a few of them, but I only have two shavers right now and one more that I plan on making into a shaver for myself.

I'm immune to BAD (two brushes and no desire for any more), but am vulnerable to picking up a soap/aftershave/cream/etc. on occasion.

Oooh. That's a pretty package. Quite a nice deal there.

[lamontqsanford]

What are you guys using for aftershave right now. I have several low priced ones that I really like but I need to upgrade. I mean I have been using the same 6 for the last 2 months.

[gatto]

what exactly is aftershave and what purpose does it serve? After I shave I just cover myself in this and I am always BBS :cool:

My absolute favorite splashes are Tabac and Provence Sante. They both do excellent jobs at moisturizing, soothing razor burn, etc.

Oooo, I love answering this question. I will even break them down by staying power for you:

Long Lasting--All day and into the night:
Pinaud Clubman, Musk, Bay Rum
Masters Topaz, Lord & Master, Bay Rum
Lustray Coachman
English Leather

Medium Lasting--4 to 6 hours:
Pinaud Vanilla, Citrus Musk
Speik
Stephan Lime, Lilac
Old Spice

Short Lived--couple hours:
SCS Med Citrus
Aubrey North Woods
AV, AV Musk, AV Sport

I have a few.

[lamontqsanford]

I agree with the Bay Rum for staying power but the Masters Topaz only lasts about 1 hour on me.

Which of those tones your skin the best or relieves redness. I get bad redness, always have, on my neck area. I find Osage Rub,Bay Rum,Proraso and Stephans Island lime cure it pretty well but I am always looking for something better.

An aftershave is a liquid splash for our face after shaving. A good one provides toning, soothing and moisturizing properties such as alcohol, glycerin, aloe and so on. Most of them provide a cooling effect as well to help out after a less than stellar shave. Some provide a warming effect such as Bay Rum. Most are infused with nice scent oils to drive our women crazy!

[gatto]

sounds nice, damn I wish my boyfriend liked wetshaving.

Without a doubt if I had a tough shave, I reach for the tried and true face medicine: AV Ice Blue. It cools everything down, relieves redness and bumps and has lots of glycerin for moisturizing. I don't even think about anything else. I suppose a distant second would be SCS Med Citrus.

[Eagle]

Well, he could still use these if he wanted. They're not strictly for wetshavers. We tend to need them more as most of us make several passes over our faces making things a bit raw. However I splash on an AS everyday whether I shaved or not just to smell nice. I'm not a big cologne guy as I think they are too perfumey whereas most AS's are a bit more subdued and light--more natural.

I could talk AS's all day. Ask Dom.

[lamontqsanford]

Just make him switch.

I haven't tried the AV,in any flavor yet, I will pick some up next time.

[gatto]

I should just replace his mach III with a DE and see what happens. Since he can't use just water with a DE I'm sure he'd learn in a day or two.

[burningdarkness]

Shep can talk ASs all day. Don't get him started. :lol:

I can talk classical music all day. Don't get me started either.

[Eagle]

I would be remiss if I didn't mention the soothing and healing properties of a nice Witch Hazel as well. At first I used Dickinsons, the basic corner drugstore brand that has alcohol. It worked, but it didn't smell so great. Now I use Thayers Rose Petal which has no alcohol. It really helps heal things up after a rough shave too. I use it after every shave and before the AS splash. It smells awesome and works wonders on my skin.

[burningdarkness]

You should just replace his Mach3 with a cutlass (a.k.a. machete). Get him to shave with that. He'll definitely learn that proper prep is key...

:thumbup1:

I'll support your love for Thayers, Shep.

I've got the Rose and the Lavender. I also have a spray bottle with one part of each that I use often. It's great stuff.

[Eagle]

I haven't tried the AV,in any flavor yet, I will pick some up next time.

Lord yes! I had no idea you didn't have this in your shave den. Say three hail Marys, and genuflect five times to the west. You must have a bottle of AV Ice Blue. Even if it's not your favorite scent (which it isn't for me either), nothing heals like this stuff. The Musk is so-so. I have it just to have it and use it once a month or so just for fun. The Ice Sport is nice because it comes in a plastic bottle perfect for the travel kit. My travel kit goes with me to the gym every day and I use Ice Sport as my after the gym splash. I don't even know how if performs after a shave as I've never tried it. I just really like it's scent. It is mildly perfumey but in a good way. Reminds me of Polo Sport which I used to wear back in the day.

At a minimum pick of the standard blue. You should get the Ice Sport too just for fun. Musk is up to you. See what you think of the scent in the store before purchasing.

If my cabinet wasn't already over capacity this would be my next set of purchases Dom. Some varying flavors of Thayers. All I can find local is unscented and Rose Petal. The stuff even feels good in your hands before splashing the face. I really want to try the lemon.

I found mine at a Whole Foods nearby. They've got all the flavors except for cucumber, which is the only one I'm interested in other than the two I have.

Where do you find yours?

Faces are overrated.

Eagle, I am expecting the soap tomorrow, I hope......... :thumbup1:

If you don't have it by midweek let me know. Something went wrong. You're further away from me than the other two so it makes sense it's taking a couple extra days.

How's things with your son?

Sprouts. Supposedly there's a Whole Foods over in Chandler which is my bordering community. One of these days I need to get over there and check their selections.

Don't expect too much. I wouldn't want you to be disappointed. I think most Whole Foods are carrying a Herban Cowboy brand of shave soaps these days. I've heard bad things about them, so don't be tempted.



I know mine is. :lol:

No, Shep. You've got such a pretty face. :tongue_sm

[Rollsshaver]

Oooh. That's a pretty package. Quite a nice deal there.


That's what I thought too. Someone will get it, hopefully tonight....................

[burningdarkness]

Just washed down some cheese, salami, and a baguette with a glass of Port. That hit the spot.

Dom is taking it easy tonight.

[Eagle]

I love cheese and salami. It's really fattening though so I don't do it much. I love putting them on a Ritz with some horseradish mustard.

Take 'er easy Dom. You deserve it. I'm just trying to nurse my way through the day with this damn cold until I can get home and into bed. However I TIVO'd the Denver game which they won so I'll have to watch that first!

[gatto]

oo sounds good, I just had some cheddar cheese on crackers

It's already 8:00 PM here. I'm about ready to crawl into bed myself. I'll probably push myself to stay awake for a while again because I don't want to end up waking up before 6:00 AM. Naps really screw with my sleep schedule.

Good luck with that cold, Shep. Hope you beat that into submission soon.

Yeah, the thing about being a Customs officer is you get exposed to people from all over the country and world. Here I was just bragging yesterday about how nice it is here. Problem is all you Northern bums come through hacking and wheezing your winter-time germs all over me. :eek:

I'll live. I guess.

[Etoyoc_Rebmos]

hmm I meant out of salami, baguette, port... I got plenty of papers yet

Actually.. I am catching up on football games that were DVR'd earlier. Labs are mostly done. The rest can be finished tomorrow morning/lunch. I just finished taking the dog for a walk and figured I would check in for a few minutes before switching loads of laundry.

Topic in obedience training today: taking the dog for a walk. Ummmm I walk my dog 2-3 miles a day with her at heel (not pulling or yanking or out in front of a 20-30 foot extension leash)... can I be excused?


Oh I can't wait for the Canine Good Citizen classes my wife is so dead set on.

I love the DVR except my wife keeps hogging it with Mexican Novellas. Ugh. Ever watched one of those things? Hideous. The scenery is nice though.

My dog is funny. She growls when she hears somebody at the door and cowers in the corner at the first loud noise (thunder, car backfire, fireworks). She's my buddy though so I forgive her foibles.

this is my dog, we don't even walk her because she can tire herself out running around the yard for 10 minutes. Any time we tried to walk her we ended up carrying her halfway through it :rolleyes:

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v61/gatto/puppy/Maybel_40_2000.jpg

she also doesn't know how to do anything except sometimes she will sit when you ask her to. She mostly follows us around the house and sleeps. She is the sweetest little dog I've ever had but she doesn't listen.

I used to watch those Telenovellas with one of my roommates in my college days. We could never sit through more than 15 minutes at a time and didn't know Spanish, but we did get a kick out of the situations, the way everyone was dressed, and the overall craziness.

Sometimes, we would make up our own translations. And no... we weren't drunk or high. We were/are just special.

[Etoyoc_Rebmos]

She is so white... and so fluffy.. For 1/3 of the year I would lose her in the snow.

[gatto]

when she was a baby we would lose her in the snow. When we got her she was only 3 lbs.

[Eagle]

Awful aren't they? No worse than an American soap I suppose. More cleavage and thighs maybe. I can't stand them, but that's about all she watches.

[Etoyoc_Rebmos]

So what is she up to now?

[Eagle]

btw I'd comment on the dog pic, but I'm only getting the red "x" here.

Cute dog. I don't have a dog myself, but the girlfriend has two Shiba Inus. They're both quite special. One is the dumbest dog you've ever met, but a really sweet dog and the other is the craziest most neurotic dog ever. She isn't wild or rampant, but she's an attention whore, the biggest food fiend, etc., etc. For all their eccentricities, they're two good dogs, though.

I think if I were to ever get a dog myself, it would be a Scottish Terrier. Or maybe a Schnauzer. Something smaller, but it would have to not be yippy.

I hate pugs.

[burningdarkness]

Nope. Balms are thick creams in a tube. The splash I'm talking about is a blue liquid. Walk into any drugstores shaving section and you'll see it. It's sold everywhere. I still can't believe you don't know about this stuff.

A cat with a pancake on his head.

EDIT: And a back. And some hair. And grass. Mostly grass.

Honestly... I had to put on my glasses to see it.

yeah, it didn't work because avatars are so tiny. I have a few other ideas but I don't have photoshop on my mac so I'll need some help from my graphic art major friend Sean. I should have an avatar in a few days.

It needs a pancake.

Ok gotta run for awhile. I actually have some work to do now. Unreal I know.

Everything needs a pancake. Good luck with that work, Shep.

The boards are quiet tonight. And I'm getting a little bit bored.

sweet! found what I need

[burningdarkness]

YAY! That's perfect.

[burningdarkness]

I can haz pancake?

We're excessively strange in here. Wonder where Ryan is.

[gatto]

now I want pancakes... we do have a 24 hour diner

[burningdarkness]

To be completely honest, I prefer waffles.

Still waiting to get into that server?

[Doc4]

Shep, let me know what you think of the Eaton College. I skipped it last time because I didn't know about the scent.

I also only have the AD's for soaps,creams and aftershave. I am going to only have 2 brushes and hopefully soon 3 razors.
I am reminded of the 11 year old boy who says he has no interest in girls and never will ... "I have no SBAD ... " keep thinkin' that, and one day you'll see this Rooney silvertip and you'll get feelings you never had before ... :w00t:

Oooh. That's a pretty package. Quite a nice deal there.
okay ... one free pass for the TAT boys ... but um ... never compliment another guy's "package" ... especially with the word "pretty" ...

this is my dog, we don't even walk her because she can tire herself out running around the yard for 10 minutes. Any time we tried to walk her we ended up carrying her halfway through it :rolleyes:

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v61/gatto/puppy/Maybel_40_2000.jpg

she also doesn't know how to do anything except sometimes she will sit when you ask her to. She mostly follows us around the house and sleeps. She is the sweetest little dog I've ever had but she doesn't listen.

She looks like a tennis ball with eyes. :lol:

waffles rock too but I always end up getting pancakes, found one of my friends who is as crazy as I am and I'll be off to the diner for pancakes with no cats under them in a few minutes

I got in and died :frown:

Sorry to hear that you're leaking, Shep.

I do a couple of things. One of which I cannot say (It's not a government secret and I promise it's legal). The other, which I can say is that I help out a local board game store every couple weeks by assisting with running board game sessions. Yes. I just admitted to liking board games. The meeting tomorrow is for this place. I'm rarely ever there and I don't see the point of me being at the meeting, but I was requested to be there and was told that I would be paid for my time and fed, so I figure I'll show.

That's how we roll. How are you doing?

[Unit 91]

Yeah, I'm good. Long weekend. Very interesting weekend. Lots happened.

Friday night I went to a wine/cheese party which was pretty lame. After that to a house party and met a girl. Got a number. I'll probably never talk to her again.

Last night headed to SF for dinner and drinks with friends. That was fun then off to another house party. Also met a girl I'll likely never talk to again. I'm good like that.

Tonight I went to my aunt and uncle's to watch the Sharks game with my cousin. Had some bomb home cooked food. Hung out for a while. Just got home a bit ago and am going to actually try to be in bed early tonight. For once.

Ah. Lovely. Some time to rest. I can't wait for Thanksgiving. I'll be having it with the girlfriend's family this year. They cook just as good as my family and I love good food. Do the math. What are the rest of you doing for Thanksgiving?

for thanksgiving my grandparents are coming over and as usual because my birthday is either on or around thanksgiving I get presents on a total non present related holiday. This year it is the day after.

[Eagle]

Didn't Dom say he was going to bed like 4 hours ago?

I have Thanksgiving off, and we will be cooking the traditional meal--posted in a thread a few weeks back.

Does anybody else like home made party mix? You know several flavors of Chex cereal, Kix cereal, pretzels, peanuts all toasted and baked with Worcestershire, butter and garlic. I used to love that stuff. I just emailed my mom tonight for her recipe. I have a hankerin' for some.

Pos vibes to your son Jim.

EDIT: I just got to see Jens' dog. Looks like a snowball with eyes.

I reached that point where I am no longer exhausted, but so overtired that I can't fall asleep. I really need to buckle down and get to sleep earlier. More than a five hours of sleep would definitely be good for me, right? I've always had trouble sleeping. :frown:

I love home made party mix. I love trail mix, yogurt raisins, beef jerky, etc. That recipe you're emailing your mom for. The Dom. He wants it.

[Rollsshaver]

Wow.... TAT has actually passed Linux. Good Job Guys (and the girl)!! I finally sold that damn razor, and I used the money generated from my sales to by ten knots from Goldennib for my son. Here in a few couple weeks, I will have him take some pictures of the finished brushes for you guys to see. If you like them, and would like to have one. I will put you in touch with him.

Give me a little whilke to catch up on the posts that I missed and to address some of them. BTW, Jen, cool avatar. It is a little odd seeing a young woman in these forums, but this forum could use the input from a female of the young generation.

Okay, coffee should be sinking in by now.

I spend the entire afternoon yesterday watching my Band of Brothers DVD's. I have already seen it several times but I had not watched them on my HDTV yet. That is such an awesome series.

I haven't tried the AOS creams yet. I think I will purchase some now.

That's sad, true for many of us on B&B, but so sad..................:lol:


On a brighter note, AOS creams frickin' rock!!

On another note, can you guys tell me what movie did the makers of Corn Flakes get the "They'er GREAT!!" quote from?

Okay folks, I am off for a while. Rolls has some "gardening" to do......:rolleyes:

Yes! It's been a couple of years since I've made any -- might need to fix that this year. We don't have a family recipe, though -- I just do what the back of the Chex box tells me to.

Took the church kiddies to the Holocaust Museum yesterday -- doesn't that sound like fun? :rolleyes: (They did quite well -- I was proud.)

[lamontqsanford]

Rolls, thanks for the heads up on the Super Adj. I always thought Gillette made a black slim and then a super with the super being longer, for some reason.

My son's surgery went well, he had been complaining of his teeth hurting, then it stopped. We finally got dental insurance, he had an abscessed tooth, so he had to have it pulled, not really a big deal in and of itself, but anytime you have to be put under there's always a bit of apprehension...I have two friends who one of their parents were put under for a "minor" operation, never awoke...(no, not the same hospital, where the cleaning lady kept unplugging the life support system), you just never know.
Thanks, ya'll

whaddaya mean "younger"? :lol::lol::lol:
It used to be 9-12 months, unless the studio stood to make a huge profit for the holidays, then it would come out a bit sooner.
I'm fully expecting in the not so distant future for at-home release to occur as soon as the film stops it's cinema showing.
There have been hints at simultaneous release, but I just think they'd lose too much money for it to be a viable option, although I'm game for it, I've never really cared much for the theater experience, though there have been a few enjoyable ones.....:001_rolle

Mornin. Ugh. Home with the sickies today. Clogged everything, coughing, wheezing. You know the drill.

Mom returned my email. Turns out it's the recipe on the back of the Chex cereal box so no family secret there. I'm gonna go to the store and get everything I need. I wants me some party mix stat!

We saw Clone Wars...it's ok but nothing fantastical. Better animation is possible. They just didn't spend the money. Also watched Kung Fu Panda w/ the little one and we are awaiting Wall E right now. btw the Band of Brothers series is quite possibly the best WW2 series available. I loved it. Hanks and HBO are coming out w/ a Pacific campaign version soon I'm told. That should also be good.

This is very funny. Takes about 5 mins. but worth it.

I've tried the Lavender AOS cream once. While I'm not ready to discount them based on just one trial, I don't think they work as well for me as TOBS. Additionally, the high price tag scares me away. Have you used TOBS, Rolls?

My son's surgery went well, he had been complaining of his teeth hurting, then it stopped. We finally got dental insurance, he had an abscessed tooth, so he had to have it pulled, not really a big deal in and of itself, but anytime you have to be put under there's always a bit of apprehension...I have two friends who one of their parents were put under for a "minor" operation, never awoke...(no, not the same hospital, where the cleaning lady kept unplugging the life support system), you just never know.
Thanks, ya'll

Glad to hear everything went alright. It is always scary going under anesthetic.


My wife and I thank ya'll so much...yeah, went straight from the clinic to McDonald's, he wanted "uh bunulluh 'ilgsak", which I think translated to vanilla milkshake with all the gauze still in his mouth :biggrin:
wife wanted sausage biscuit and OJ, got me a southern chicken biscuit and coffee, 'twas a worthwhile trip:smile:
went to walmart and got him the clone wars...dang, that thing came out on video quick! last four movies we've gone to were clone wars, kung fu panda, wall e, and horton hears a who...so far the last two released are the first two on video...WTC? frikken marketing geniuses at work there

now, back to work...:frown:
gotta order some pink ivory stock....

How are those biscuit sandwiches? I've been meaning to try one (to be honest, I do love biscuits and sweet tea and whatnot. One of the only things I miss from the south is the food). I'm still searching for a place that does excellent sweet tea and sausage gravy and biscuits in Boston. I usually eat pretty healthily, but I will admit to enjoying some of this on the rare occasion (perhaps no more than five times a year).


whaddaya mean "younger"? :lol::lol::lol:
It used to be 9-12 months, unless the studio stood to make a huge profit for the holidays, then it would come out a bit sooner.
I'm fully expecting in the not so distant future for at-home release to occur as soon as the film stops it's cinema showing.
There have been hints at simultaneous release, but I just think they'd lose too much money for it to be a viable option, although I'm game for it, I've never really cared much for the theater experience, though there have been a few enjoyable ones.....:001_rolle

I've never cared for the theater experience either. I remember having to wait that year for the at-home release. By the time that happened, I usually lost all interest in the movie or simply forgot about it.

I'm not too in touch with the movie world these days, and was even more out of touch a few years back. When I got back in touch, I was shocked to see movies coming out on DVD a couple months after the theater release.


Mornin. Ugh. Home with the sickies today. Clogged everything, coughing, wheezing. You know the drill.

Mom returned my email. Turns out it's the recipe on the back of the Chex cereal box so no family secret there. I'm gonna go to the store and get everything I need. I wants me some party mix stat!

We saw Clone Wars...it's ok but nothing fantastical. Better animation is possible. They just didn't spend the money. Also watched Kung Fu Panda w/ the little one and we are awaiting Wall E right now. btw the Band of Brothers series is quite possibly the best WW2 series available. I loved it. Hanks and HBO are coming out w/ a Pacific campaign version soon I'm told. That should also be good.

This is very funny. Takes about 5 mins. but worth it.

Gonna go pay some bills now. Back later.

I'm gonna say it again. Get better. Or else.

I was thinking of a trip to the grocery later. Now I'll most certainly be making a trip.

To my knowledge, we haven't had a regular female visitor to TAT. Sorry if I'm wrong about that. I mean no offense. Badger and Blade is a male-dominated forum, so I tend to assume someone is a male unless I am told they aren't. To be honest, Jen (let me know if you use two 'n's), when you first started posting in TAT, I thought you were a male.

haha no offense taken, how could you know? Honestly I was a little afraid to join this forum because I figured I would be among a very tiny minority and that everybody would think I'm weird :redface: I only use one n because my real name is Jennifer, usually if a girl uses 2 n's their name is really Jenn. I don't mind being the only girl around. That is how things have typically been for me. In highschool and even now my core group of friends (mostly the same group) is all guys. I have one girl friend who I am close with and I only met her because she is dating one of my guy friends. Most girls don't understand me. I am among a very small majority who is usually loved by nerdy boys and confusing to the rest of the world. A few of my friends keep asking if I can make clones for them to date because they can't find any girls who want to play halo with them.

I'm back. Paycheck just got spent on bills. Ain't payday great?

Discounting female vendors which there are a few, B&B has female members but none are active currently to my knowledge. Females usually last a few weeks until they get whatever info they need about leg shaving or something to do w/ boyfriends/husbands. Then they move on. Ha. We even had a transexual here once. I was wondering how that would play out, but everyone was very respectful. I was proud of B&B for that. Anyway I think the non shaving conversations we have don't interest most women. Plus they don't always get our sense of humor. I pissed one off a few months ago with a sarcastic remark that was taken wrong. Prob. my bad but she overreacted IMO. Haven't seen her since.

So Jen, I think you are the only active (non-vendor) female currently posting. We'll see how long you last. :lol:

[sol92258]

at one point, I had counted 9 active female members, there've been some more since, but I quit counting.
so, even 10-15 active out of how many?
yeah, the female species is fairly under-represented by count, but they are valuable just the same (and much more appealing to cast gaze upon)

haha that is actually pretty impressive that people weren't noticing considering I said my name was Jen, shows how much people read. A few threads I put up with questions in them in this forum got completely random unrelated answers about the title subject :lol: . Tracy is a cool guy's name but I can see where some people would get confused over the internet. My other problem is my voice always seems to sound like a little boy voice over the xbox live mic, so when I'm in a halo match and there are stupid kids screaming about how they are going to pwn everybody I tend to say if you're under 12 you should NOT be playing halo. Then everybody jumps on me and says that I'm 12 too :rolleyes: .
