    What?!?! Gilmour and Waters buried the hatchet??? Say it isn’t so!!

    Alright. It isn’t so. But it is time for Mrs_Donut’s family reunion; the 67th consecutive iteration since official records have been kept, with the first gathering dating back nearly 80 years. Quite impressive, if you ask me.

    Pink Floyd is the choix du jour. It’s a nice copy of Pinaud Clubman Musk and a fitting reminder of the barbershop of my youth.

    Happy Saturday and happy shaving!

    I will always remember getting caught in a sudden downpour while working a few years ago. If you know anything about working with children with Down Syndrome, you know how stubborn they can sometimes be. I had to help a kiddo who decided to have a shutdown while riding bikes and just as the skies began a steady shower. I got to him, we traversed the quarter mile back to the bike shed where my coworker was waiting as the shower turned into a downpour, put everything away and sought a more arrid location. At the end of the day, I couldn’t help but retort, “Now that we’ve been caught in the rain, I must ask if you like Piña Coladas.” I will always think about that moment.
