@Jnatcat - Everytime I see the suds in the OS mug I want to find a puck for myself! Will, do you find it hard to use the Chubby to lather in the mug?

Ron,

The Old Spice soap is excellent but hard to find at a reasonable price, as far as lathering goes with the Chubby I lather in another mug that is much shorter and bigger.

A great shave this morning certainly eased the transition back to reality after a long holiday weekend. Three passes and minimal touch ups ended in a near BBS. I finished off the shave with a splash of Floid Blue. I hope everyone has a great Monday.
