Write about a memorable time you had with your dad or a memorable time you have had as a dad yourself. The winner will be selected by random.org by May 30, give or take.

I lived in the panhandle up by Fort Walton Beach. Back then the folks used to say they were from, "L.A." as in Lower Alabama. Gun racks in truck windows, great folks by the way and had a terrific...

Barbaric.

Was encouraged at the statement by the Muslim Council of Britain. Would be more encouraged to see others of the faith expressing public outrage. Silence here sends the wrong message.

For the past several months I have taken to flipping the switch so I don't hear it ring nor hear the text or email notifications. At my convenience during the day (red lights, break) I check it and...

Or would it be referring to, "get some sugar tonight..." And that has nothing to do with a recipe believe me.

Great idea, I especially like the idea of the vintage ads showing how advertising changed through the decades.

That is so cool - great catch. And remember, it is just money.

This just BEGS for an example - I know what you mean but can't think of one.

Anyone?

Unrelated but Jeff Foxworthy mentioned once, "You know you are a redneck if you wash your hands BEFORE you...

Born and bred in the midwest all of us. Stopped at a Walgreens in Tennessee (properly pronounced "Tinnnnesee" but I digress) and an older lady with a clear southern accent rang up the purchase. ...

When in Nashville last week at a family style and historic restaurant it was fun to watch the faces around the table. This was one of those places you do not order. Just sit down and here comes the...

I lived in the south for six years and forgot how unique it is as a distinctive area of our nation. Just recently we drove back down south not having been there for some time. As we drove along I...

Hey, my posture is you support myself and them both when you order from a wholesale account of ours!

Actually we have shipped to a number of them. Some have just added it to their site, others...

Ah, this is the 'ol warm-them-up-a-bit-because-they-are-the-ones-picking-out-the-nursing-home strategy.

She is trying to stay one step ahead of you! Think like a chess game, three moves ahead. ...

Thanks guys for the encouragement. The truth is my eye was a pretty big target:

Fair warning: NOT for the squeamish! Hit your "Back" button right now if you are sitting there with a full stomach or faint at the sight of needles. Really. ...

I am with you, my father in law lives with us on occasion to give my brother in law a break. My wife and I feel like we are playing zone defense just trying to get through the day.

It does...

Welcome back to you and your healthy heart Tony - what a joy to be able to participate at your daughter's wedding.

Oh, Mark is just busy I'm sure. Over the past year I have had him restore several straights for me. Just sent him another last week. After a week or so upon receipt he checks in and gives me his...

I will sound like the local policeman but a link to a live auction is frowned upon I believe. They are kind of cute though.

For the money paid it is worth it. My observation is that the metal clamp is vintage and the strop is not original to the clamp as it is narrower. The vintage strops I have and have seen the clamp...

Never mind, I thought you were proposing a Moderator Shave-Off Contest or something. Carry on...

OK, I am biased but at least I am up front about it, eh?

I got the same green shave bowl from WCS and have enjoyed it. Green was not my first choice but the others were sold out. It works just fine.

A steal at that price - congrats.

I am no expert but based on others I have seen that razor is not likely original. The important thing is you have the case, very nice.

Saw this today, great site by the way too:

Our site is updated and "The Lime Of Your Life" is now available for sale!

Just in time for spring and summer weather, we present a truly natural and...

GREAT NEWS! The volunteers who sampled our new Lime aftershave have been more than enthusiastic about our updated formula. This magic formula now joins the others in a secure blast proof bunker...

You aren't going to PICK those leaves are you??!!!!!:hand:

Never seen a gold one before and I remember loving my Merkur gold slant but straights replaced it. I can assure you of incredible shaves with it - and you have a Hoffritz! Wow!

Imagine my alarm Phil at my misreading the title of the thread:

"I've decided to to 100 percent au natural" :w00t:

I guess my question was more about how you stand relative to the strop. So many of the videos I have seen show the strop held out to one side and the razor goes back and forth in front of you. I...

Try 4711, it is fleeting.

I have been using a straight for a year and a half now and enjoy using exclusively vintage hanging strops. The way that works best for me is to have it anchored to the middle hinge pin on the door. ...

What I did was knock the pin up out of the middle hinge about 1/4 inch. My stops each have their own leather shoe lace that they hang by. It is a simple matter as I rotate the strops to loop the...

For now, we are going with this straight up lime. That may be a consideration for later but not soon. The reason being, we want to be known as more than a company that manufactures a bay rum...

I see everyone's favorite in the background...

Well THAT is breathtaking. Not a straight you would show a newbie and comment, "Using a straight is easier than it looks..."

The look on their face would either be: :scared: or it would be: ...

Great news, parenting is very UNDER rated. As the oldest of five myself I can assure you it is a real kick all getting together - congrats!

A triple pin too - well done!
