TBH, never heard of it before either. lol

Make that a third person who had to google it. Those department store cologne / perfumes are terrible for you. It's filled with chemicals and carcinogens. I haven't fucked with cologne probably a decade or so.

If I throw something on, it's waxed based. I do get a lot of compliments on the smell. You also need to find something that works with your natural body composition / odors / pheromones.

This is my favorite but there's tons of other scents and fragrances and not filled with shitty ingredients.

Sorry in advance for shitty pix quality. We have wanted some live edge furniture for a long time. Last fall we met a guy who was starting a live edge woodworking shop. A couple months ago we had him find us a piece of walnut and make us a coffee table and end table. We got the end table today. Really happy with how they turned out.

You would think the disposable was gold-plated from his behavior, but he preferred that over the bank's pens because the ink was supposedly more tamper-resistant on paper. He ultimately found it, and I was amazed that my aging/cramped/shaky hands could actually write for the first time in years! Long story short, I immediately went online as soon as we got home and ordered a 6-pack of them...a lifetime supply with the little bit of writing that I do these days.

Uni-Ball Signo 207 Retractable Gel Ink Rollerball Pen, Bold Point, 1.0mm.

My lifetime go-to pen going back to junior high school has been the Fisher Space Pen, and I still have several floating around in my vehicles and checkbooks.....

These are the exact pens I replaced all my ca-ca ballpoints with. Never going back. Using those old ones are like trying to shave your balls with a cheese grater.

Mac Studio. VESA mount display is on backorder. I am starting to build a new desk this week for a three monitor set up.

Nice! Hopefully the Mac Studio will be quickly certified with my primary software. I rebuilt my home office desk just a few months ago. I use 3 screens but one screen is an iMac, and the other 2 screens are for a Mac Pro, which is a separate system for security purposes. The laptop is mainly for meetings and random work while the other systems are busy. I'm fancy so I use a DSLR with a nice lens for Zoom meetings, lol. I prefer using a separate shelf for my desk so I can slide different peripherals under the monitors for cleanliness sakes. No one made the exact spec shelf I wanted so I just got some wood at Home Depot and then screwed on some Furniture Legs from Amazon and installed Philips Hue LED strips. Actually my whole home office uses only Philips Hue lights so I can change the lighting mood on the fly.

Love the light sabers.

I hooked up my 5D Mark III one day to use for my Teams meetings and it looked like I was featuring in a documentary. Was a bit much, so back to Brio we go.
