For years I have tried various shaving creams, expensive and cheap – except for XPEC since that’s around $80 a tub. I’ve narrowed it down to 1805 as my favorite go to shaving cream. Taylor of Old Bond Street easily a number two (just about any scent but Eton College it’s amazing). I read a …
Incredible. What an awesome beater. The only thing I don not like about this watch is the concentric rings on the sub dials, because they reflect a lot of light which sometimes makes it look like there is a scratch or two on the domed sapphire. There never is, and I’ve banged this watch against …
I’ve waited a day to try one of the Coffiest that arrived this week. I waited for it to chill in the garage refrigerator. First thing. Opening is now a joy. You only need to remove the outer wrapper around the cap! No more secondary pull film over the opening (which I always found maddening). …
The number of times I frequent a CVS a year can probably be counted on one hand. CVS has been anti-Apple Pay for some time. But a barcode based payment system requiring a CVS application? I’m sorry but that’s pretty lame. Just adopt a nearly defacto standard already. Like Apple Pay. Quick, easy, and secure. …
Holy shit. We learned the hard way not to buy faucets online. We’re now paying for it in both times and money. We bought some vintage looking stuff with the labeled porcelin handles online because we couldn’t find them at Home Depot or Lowe’s and Kohler wanted $1,200 each for them. We still paid close …

It was working well and I thought I had it nailed down. Nope. At one point my watch extension makes a request to the iOS app …
A review to follow but spot on delivery by G. Gerlach. Gorgeous. I took delivery while on vacation so I had to wait as the timepiece waited on my desk at work. I picked it up this evening. The wooden presentation box is excellent. Beside it was the mesh stainless band. Very heavy and nice. …
Quick impressions. Winding lasts about 12 hours or so. Setting time and winding easy. Put it under running faucet and no leaks so far. Strap is a little too wide for the buckle, needs to be twisted a bit too pull through. Very comfortable wear. Lume is pretty good when charged. Timekeeping is good. …
I’m surrounded by expensive equipment that I don’t know how to properly engage. So I bucked up and got a sound spectrum analyzer for my iPhone. I need to detect specific bands and thus needed to search hard. I’m wondering how accurate these microphones and analyzers are. It seems pretty accurate. The polling looks quick …
I received $30.73. Not too shabby.
