Memorial Day PIF-Thank you for your service

**oakeshott** · 05-27-2012, 07:10 AM

I've got some bits and bobs of shaving gear that have accumulated over the past few months as I've been learning what I like and don't like. In honor of the unselfish service of our military volunteers, I'd like to PIF some of this assemblage. Here are the requirements. You must be an enlisted man (or woman)-no officers. You must also be new to this habit and have fewer than 50 posts. Finally, and least rationally, you CANNOT be a Dallas Cowboys fan.

If you qualify, post your interest in the PIF and pick a number between 1 and a hundred. I will randomly pick one of those numbers out of a shaving mug tomorrow and PM the winner on Memorial.

Here's a pic of the box with what's in it now. I will be adding a few things between now and then (I know, for instance, I have some feathers to share and every one should try those). You can see it's a bit heavy on soap samples, esp. the high quality ones. The only thing I regret is that I don't have a really good brush to put in here. All of mine are in rotation, but I do have this nice vintage brush I was thinking of as a restore. You can use it, lathers pucks like a beast, but it's very stiff.

Great PIF! Thanks for your generosity! I'm out on two fronts: Officer and Cowboys fan - Go America's Team!

Even though I'm ineligible, let me state that NO COWBOY FANS is perfectly acceptable. And my favorite team is the NY Jets, which should show you how much disdain everyone around the country has for the Cowgirls. I mean, my team is an AFC team!

I periodically rethought the "no officers" limitation, but family honor precludes any alteration of the "no Cowboys fans" rule. My mother would bar me from her home.
