Did you ever pick up any Stetson? Not yet. I will look for that in a few weeks. I don’t want to overwhelm my wife with awesome AS’s. I like sleeping in the house.

Yo Tom...I've found, I can use just about ANY AS and still get loving approval as long as I add a small splash of Aqua Velva Musk afterward....Theres something about the AV Musk that makes even the Veg acceptable, even in mixed company...

Then you might have to carry straight pins in your mouth, to keep her from kissing you...just long enough to complete those projects. you need to work on...That AV Musk can be dangerous, if you are like sharpening blades and a woman gets within sniffing distance......lmao!!

Sounds great Tom. My evil plan to turn the world back to drug sto AS is rolling along!!
Bird I agree with the AV musk being awesome. I am a big fan of barbasol musk. Which they stopped making. Grrrr

Barbasol Brisk is STILL awesome....A great Skin Bracer imitation with even more Menthol than the AS they are imitating! Now that shows character....Make a clone but add improvements, and sell it for LESS money...Gotta Love It!....}8^D

I came accross some British Sterling a couple of months ago in a small town drug store that is on it's last legs. The big box stores have moved in and the downtown is about dead. I hadn't been in there in about 30 years. A long time ago I used to go to the dentist that officed above the drug store. At that time the down town area was thriving. There was a Snyder and a Seward Kemp drug store and the usual clothing, shoe, furniture and office supply store.
I had forgotten all about BS until I saw it there on the shelf. Picked up a bottle of that and a puck of Williams they also carried and had a nice reminisce with the clerk. I hope to get through that town in a couple of weeks and see if the store is still open. If so I'll see if they have any other treasures.

If so I'll see if they have any other treasures. So I did make it to the drug store I mentioned. The only store open in downtown Redwood Falls MN on a Sunday afternoon. They stock Injector blades, the one's made in China. $6.79 a pack, so picked up a pack and a pack of Wilkinson Swords for an unmentionable. Also got a can of Lemon / Lime Foamy. I've been wanting a can of that for awhile now. Once the NOS blade needs retiring from my Yellow Injector, I'm going to use one of these Schick replacements. I've heard they are good, but only tried one and wasn't crazy about it. However I have since learned that my Injector clone I tried it in probably doesn't work as well as my true Injector. If like the the blades I got at the drug store, I'll get more. That is the only store I know of that carries them. Sure I can order them online from Timbuk2 or 3, but it's more fun to cash and carry, not to mention it helps a local economy that definitely could use a little help. Who you callin' yeller?
