I'm afraid if I put all those "Scrubbing Bubbles" on my package I might knick my bead or worse...

You're over sharing again Bob. Stop it!

As for the bomb I would love to receive it! I think those brushes are really cool. I really like the Romeo y Julieta one you made. Great idea for a bomb too.

Your offer is greatly appreciated.  I've used an electric shaver for years and then I quit using that a few months ago.

Regretfully, I gotta pass.

That is a sweet looking shaving brush.  I really like the idea of using the band for a brush.  I also really like the look of the wood.  I would not use it.  In the room where I keep my cigars I have a shelf where I keep interesting cigar paraphernalia.  I would put the shaving brush in a prominent place on that shelf.

I would use the shaving soap.  I learned to shave with a straight razor when I was in the military and still do so ever occasionally.  I'd like to try it with a soap that you say is "superb."

As for the cigar, I have never had the fortune of getting to try a "real" Trinidad.  I have wanted to for some time and I am sure that it would be enjoyed.

Very cool bomb concept.  Very kind of you.  I am sure the recipient will enjoy it.

I'd love to get the cigar... but I'm not thinking I can make much use of the shaving brush, though I have always been a wet shaver.

Looks really nice :-0. Would like to have that. I wet shave ever day for work.

Very nice gift and interesting concept. I still wet shave for work. (Pesky respirators require a smooth seal.) My wife got me a straight razor/ ceramic bowl /shave soap / brush combo for cmas last year. I have been thinking about making a nice stand for it and that brush would be a very nice upgrade from the cheap one I currently have!

The recipient will be very lucky and most definitely enjoy it! Thanks again!

I'd love to have that brush.  Been wetshaving for over 25 years, except I switch to brushless when I am traveling or deployed to warzones.  I used to travel with my mug but after one got broken while traveling I leave it at home.   My dad is a wetshaver too...that's how I picked it up.

Here's my current setup:   cheap Burma-shave brush, Van der Hagen soap, and a old milk glass shaving mug:

Sweet gift idea!

I haven't shaved for 8 years, I just trim a few inches of the beard off every couple months.

Based on the responses I think most of us are more interested in the shaving brush. I think Omegar may need to up his production of this very cool item.

Who is it going to be. This is going to be a nice prize for whoever gets it.
Also I want to know if Bob won??

Hope he does the Google Earth targeting again.  That was fun! (Trust me on this one . . . if you're the one getting bombed, it is a bit more surprising to see your home "targeted", and then there's the waiting and anticipation of the actual strike!)

I noticed the dog too... but it disappears when you get up closer.

Anyways...
Who likes following tracking?  :rolleyes:

I thought that everyone might be as crazy as me about following tracking. You know that you have it bad when you click several times a day to see if it has moved.
 :lmao:

As a matter of interest, I have a parcel heading to me that started three days ago in PA, and so far, all it has managed to do is make it to Chicago! Totally the wrong direction.  :crazy:

Unless.... wait a minute... who hijacked MY cigars?.

I see the dog, and there is a bird on the upper left.

I sure hope this is going to a state with some mountains.
