Want to know why you didn't get a present?

Maybe for the same reason I received three pairs of underpants this year. If you want me to model them for you, email me and I put the pictures on my next blog.

Well, here's to a Merry Christmas!

To an old friend!

Christmas is the time to remember old friends! Well, here's one that has been close to me from first thing in the morning for over forty years, followed me all over the world to over fifty work locations, and never faltered even though it's often been a close shave.

Here's to my good ol' shaving-brush!

(Things must be tough when you start toasting your shaving-brush!)
