They're fine products. I bought them for the OM a couple of years ago, I think. (The bottles are purty.) He seems to prefer anthony logistics shaving cream and origins fire fighter after shave -- it's awesome.

As for skin care, I highly recommend philosophy. It's fairly unscented and has a nice clean feel.

It's shaving cream, why would you pay that kind of money for it? The only people I know who can justify paying stupid amounts of money for shaving products are African-American men who tend to get ingrown hairs.*

*Note that there is intentionally no comma after the word "men".

Let's not get too offended by the price, Brylcreem boy. I'm sure MR just wants to smell nice.

On the other hand, he's make a great Sideshow Bob in a live-action Simpsons movie.

Suggestions on your favorites?

Thanks.

Hmmmmm.....let's combine topicality with summer -- how about Elvis (sorry PLF) Costello's "What's So Funny Bout Peace Love and Understanding?"; the Who's version of "Summertime Blues"; Van Morrison's "Moondance"; Bruce Springsteen's "4th of July, Asbury Park"; "Vacation" by the Go-Gos; Meatloaf's "You Took the Words Right Out of My Mouth" (aka "Hot Summer Night"); and Marvin Gaye's "What's Going On."

I'm sure that I'll think of some more.

would you have said classy without quotes had you not been schooled in the horror of that word by your truly? Have I been properly thanked for sparing you the embarrassement of being mocked behind your back for saying classY? remember when I corrected that gal on the old fb that time she said "classy" (was it Not For Profit?) and she flipped? Too bad the old board is adios, or I would search for thata post. Bet she never says classy, at least without quotes, or airquotes, again. You are welcome, lady.

Yeah, as a couple others have said, "classy" is meant to make clear that you mean "someone who thinks about themselves as classy and are therefore clearly mistaken."

Rather as I have taken to using the word "deck" to sarcasticly note the non-coolness of people who won't understand that it's sarcasm.

That is perfect. I'm not sure why that wasn't thought of before.

Well, to tell you the truth it's because I have pretty sensitive skin around my neck that's prone to getting knicks and razor burn. The Gillete shaving gel and aftershave just isn't doing it for me, so it's time to upgrade.

And actually, it's not about the scent. This stuff is unscented. I prefer to go sans cologne.

Mr. Lex insists on using that lime-scented cheapie stuff - you know with the stripes for $1.69 a can? Strangely, it drives the cats away like kitty repellant, but you can't smell it when he's done anyway. Besides - he can then splurge on non-cheapie shampoo.

When someone says "classy", I always think of Fran Drescher (sp?)

It would not have been Not for Profit. Using that word would have been said to be "too New Jersey."

New Orleans is Sinking, Tragically Hip

My god, a Hip sighting.

Then again, you did say were from Canada. Forget it. For a minute, I thought I finally met an American fan.

As for summer, all you need is a lot of Grateful Dead, Talking Heads and Uncle Tupelo.
