Fluffy’s Curmudgeon Corner

Nice looking shave Ken

Thanks Dave. Sometimes I feel like things are redundant. As in, 99% of my shaves are at a minimum good. The outliers (less than good)are rare. This is the direct result of being on the forums. Meeting folks like you. And interacting with each other. Sharing our collective successes and failures. That makes the learning curve shorter and steeper. And before you know it. You have a hard time remembering the last “bad” shave.

Sunday’s shave 



Chas. R. Coates “Ace” razor Baltimore 
Custom Razorock Gealousy Badger 
Scheermonnik Delftse Donderslag soap
Lustray Coachman AS

Good day today. As well as shave.


The Morris Mfg. Prosperity razor did the bidness.
SV Badger whipped up the CBL Cigar Shop Injun soap.
And the Master Barber AS finished it off nicely. 
In other areas of interests. Sent out a few items via USPS. One person is expecting something. Other folks may not be. Insert maniacal laugh here. A bonus of the trip to the Post Office. Was that the young philly in line ahead of me. Took great pride in getting her hospital scrubs to fit her figure perfectly. 
The brush handle project has another possible route that may come to fruition. That involves a high tech copper alloy. And my good friend JoJo playing on very expensive machinery. My original and still possible  solution is not a high tech alloy. And me using very low tech old school methods. 
My mental gears turning and grinding. Tabac Tuesday looming larger in the windshield. And Monday fading in my rear view mirror. 
Hope all of you are off to a good week.

Great shave and side notes too Ken. Dave's excited as he's in the loop and watching for the surprises to land 

PS - He also just finished his Wild Turkey after a long day and is heading to bed...........

You make me laugh, but I appreciate the humorous outlook for bonuses!

I tend to get the "people of wally-world," like the obese sweaty "lady" that reaches into her tube top to pull out a damp $5 bill to pay for her purchase. Can I get some gloves and hand sanitizer to the pharmacy, please?!!

I'm guessing that particular bill went straight into your "Special" spot in the register Eric.   Think I learned in history class. Abe had a thing for "Curvy" women folk.

Tabac Tuesday


While I have many soaps that I like very much. Tabac always delivers a good shave. 
Aiku Razor
Yaqui Badger
A bit of a SNAFU at the post office. My tracking numbers aren't working correctly. But upon my return to inquire. The guy said "It is gonna be ok." If not you may hear about some yahoo in a dump truck "Going Postal" and driving thru a Post Office. 
Good day at work. And relaxing evening planned. Ready to whip the camel tomorrow and get headed to the weekend.

Wednesday's Shave.


Good day today. Even though it got a bit toasty here in Maryland. It was nice weather. 
Did a bit of roadside trimming. I hauled the chipper out with the big rig. 
In the shave den. My Bengall took the whiskers off with sharp and smooth ease. 
LNHC Barber Shoppe Suds applied by my well broke in Omega boar brush.
Finished off with the classic Old Spice AS.

Thursdays Shave


Otto Busch Worldmaster 6/8th's
AP Cashmere Brush
SV Opuntia Soap
Tabac Man AS

Friday is upon us. The temps are rising here in Maryland. Have to get Daddy's Girl ready for the Tar and Chip operations. Requires some modifications to the back of the truck. 
Installing a special hitch. Removing hydraulic fittings for snow equipment. And modifying the standard dovetail.  Generally a lot of "Big Guy stuff".  Hope you are all ready to get the weekend started. 
Fluffy.
