2019 Shave Purchase Sabbatical - The Maltese Falcon Razor

[RTM]

You just choose a car from the 1920's / 1930's that you like. It can be the same as another persons (I may make a 4/2 door selection)
You can change your avatar, that is a god idea.

Just read the rules carefully

I was thinking about being chauffeured. Where do the rules stand on hiring a professional to drive, and for the passenger (that'll be me) to enjoy panoramic view while sipping something that restores one's faith in postwar whisky?
Naturally, no purchases will be made on the journey. I believe I've everything, including whisky.

What is the treewhale reference?

Treewhale was a member who was on a sabbatical and fell off the wagon by buying a few years worth of supplies in one go. As a kind of joke, his name was turned into a verb; "to treewhale" means to break a sabbatical in style.

Looking at some goodies for the restock period. Has anyone tried WSP aftershaves? Matterhorn and the Sandalwood may be on the list.

Here is where he went out.

Here is an example of how it snowballed.

Here is an example of the type of commitment to uncommiting that is rare.

And, finally, here is the birth of a new word.

And I submit this as my proof that I have too much time on my hands and not enough sense.

Those are always worth reading again. It’s interesting to see what people were buying back then too.

I'm still in and heading for the home stretch - I think I'll do next year again too.

I seem to remember there was a picture of a counter totally filled with shaving supplies. There were like 300 razor blades, two or three years worth of soap, etc. Like a shaving cornucopia. I couldn't find it, though.
