I love shaving. I would have never said that before I started using a double edge safety razor and taking better care of my skin. I love learning about shaving supplies and techniques, and I love building my skill level. I also love the personalized aspect of traditional shaving — everyone’s skin and facial hair [...]
Music You Need to Own is a segment where I like an album so much I put my money where my mouth is and buy it for one lucky reader. Two Steps From Hell is the name of a musical group comprising of Nick Phoenix and Thomas J. Bergersen. They have made a TON of [...]
I recently purchased the card game 7 Wonders. The cards in that game are sized differently than most games. The 7 Wonders cards are taller and a little wider than, say, Magic the Gathering cards or the cards found in Quarriors, etc. I searched Amazon for cards that would fit 7 Wonders, and I found [...]
Shaving removes a layer (or several layers) of skin from your body. This is unavoidable and is a by-product of getting a close shave. Even if your pre-shave preparation and shaving technique helps you avoid or eliminate nicks or “razor burn,” you may still have dry itchy skin after a shave. Another culprit for dry [...]
Earlier in the year I bought a Crowd Cut coupon to sharpen ten knives. If I hustled, I could get a free set of Wusthof kitchen shears. Big deal, I thought. We already had a set of kitchen scissors, and they were heavy and sturdy and manly enough. We also snipped up pieces of used [...]
We have been concentrating on reducing our household waste for the last two months. There wasn’t a particular event that sparked our desire to be more “green,” although a conversation with my friend BigDubb about one-use plastic bags was definitely a big part of developing our household challenge: throw away only one bag of trash [...]
Josh “Ooah” Mayer of amazing musical group Glitch Mob has released a four track EP entitled Get Primal. This short and sweet four track EP is very close to Glitch Mob, but not quite as cinematic. I think Ooah (and LoBounce, the EP’s collaborator) sounds more like Glitch Mob meets Knife Party, in itself a [...]
Most people think that shaving removes just the hair from your body. If you’re getting a close shave, however, you are also removing some of the skin as well. Removing too much skin is one way that people get “razor burn,” or skin irritation. The other common way to irritate the skin or encourage infected [...]
As I’ve posted before, I’ve fallen in love with shaving with a double edge razor. I started about two and a half months ago and have shaved just about every day. I have some friends who purchased some really high end shaving equipment right off the bat. $150+ razor, expensive soaps, expensive brushes, etc. I [...]
I’m a big believer in the tablet form factor for personal computing. I have a Barnes and Noble Nook Color, two Amazon Kindle Fires, two iPads, and a Google Nexus 7 on the way. That’s a lot of smudgy fingerprints. I use screen cleaning cloths made by 3M Scotchbrite, but sometimes it’s best to avoid [...]
