Cheapo Shaving Soap
For the cheapo inside me. Well actually it isn't as cheap as I want it to be or think it would me. The label doesn't say anything about natural so I guess it's all tough chemical just for manly man like yours truly.
Update 1/3/2011:
Williams Mug Shaving Soap
I tried it last night. I soaked it under hot water inside a mug while taking a hot shower. Poured out the water, whipped up a lather with my brush without really trying as I was kind of in a hurry. The lather was good and it didn't disappear while I was shaving. So it wasn't all that bad. The lather tended to leave some white residue on the blade which I had to wash and remove afterwards. The scent was a bit hospital like if you were to inhale directly from the soap solid state but when used on shaving, it's a very faint and pleasant scent which also disappeared rather quite quickly, by morning, you couldn't smell anything.

Kodachrome
This is it. Every good thing must come to an end. I've never tried any Kodachrome, but what ever chromes I've tried before from Big Yellow, I am not very happy with, it could be me, the chrome or the processing or the catch all: a combination of them. I will still shoot film whenever I feel like it. I still have some exposed rolls in my refrigerator and inside my cameras begging to be used and developed. But I like to keep them waiting.

I am the Dishwasher
Keeping things clean and tidy. I don't have a lot of experience with dishwasher actually almost none as a user. One time I saw a friend of mine used one, back then she was an FOB-fresh off the boat, or does it even have anything to do with it at all? She put too much detergent or in the wrong compartment and the machine overflowed with bubbles, it was quite a scene. I used one lately and was impressed how noisy it was and how clean the dishes came out. So it's really a mixed bag. But I suspect the machine uses more power and water.
Absolutely Awesome Lunch
As if rice and roast pork aren't awesome enough, add some noodle ... pan fried noodle, white rice and roast pork. And you got to add some greens as they are good for a balanced diet. Wow, what can I tell you? I really put Rachael Ray to shame.
