Who Am I? by Carl Sandburg
My head knocks against the stars.
My feet are on the hilltops.
My finger-tips are in the valleys and shores of
universal life.
Down in the sounding foam of primal things I
reach my hands and play with pebbles of
destiny.
I have been to hell and back many times.
I know all about heaven, for I have talked with God.
I dabble in the blood and guts of the terrible.
I know the passionate seizure of beauty
And the marvelous rebellion of man at all signs
reading “Keep Off.”
My name is Truth and I am the most elusive captive
in the universe.

Take It Where You Find It
Men saw the stars at the edge of the sea
They thought great thoughts about liberty
Poets wrote down words that did fit
Writers wrote books
Thinkers thought about it
Take it where you find it
Can’t leave it alone
You will find a purpose
To carry it on
Mainly when you find it
Your heart will be strong
About it
Many’s the road I have walked upon
Many’s the hour between dusk and dawn
Many’s the time
Many’s the mile
I see it all now
Through the eyes of a child
Take it where you find it
Can’t leave it alone
You will find a purpose
To carry it on
Mainly when you find it
Your heart will be strong
About it
[Chorus]
Lost dreams and found dreams
In America
In America
In America
Lost dreams and found dreams
In America
In America
In America
And close your eyes
Leave it all for a while
Leave the world
And your worries behind
You will build on whatever is real
And wake up each day
To a new waking dream
Take it where you find it
Can’t leave it alone
You will find a purpose
To carry it on
Mainly when you find it
Your heart will be strong
About it
[Chorus]
Change, change come over
Change come over
Talkin’ about a change
Change, change
Change come over, now
Change, change, change come over
I’m gonna walk down the street
Until I see
My shining light
I’m gonna walk down the street
Until I see
My shining light
I’m gonna walk down the street
Until I see
My shining light
I’m gonna walk down the street
Until I see
My shining light
I see my light
See my light
See my shining light
I see my light
See my light
See my shining light

That is indeed the greatest commercial I’ve ever seen!
Really, everyone’s heading over to the Kiwanis club to have a post-wake kegger. Some you might have come across, like Thailand, yet other nations you could not even have actually thought about. It calls for time and also power to locate that somebody special so you might take into consideration signing up with several of those complimentary Filipino dating services to hot VEEP girls[/url] enhance your possibilities to discover your possible faux-negro spirit friends. I think it’s extremely tough for people to open up and also be honest regarding their condition, whatever it may be. VEEP will take into consideration all your close individuals to be her household, and also VEEP will be extremely attentive to just how her dearest people really feel, what’s their health state, as well as also what they eat today.
I watched it twice. Not because it was the greatest commercial but because titties.
It’s not just Harry’s. I used to buy Dollar Shave Club, because I loved the product. They also had clever ads. Then one day DSC decided to give BLM $500,000.
I wrote to them to give them a chance to say that the story was wrong. They didn’t reply. I cancelled.
Gillette is so overpriced, that even before they praised men teaching daughters to shave, I wrote them off. And now Harry’s, my third choice, is gone to shit.
Reading about the Disney employees begging their leaders to get out of politics and just concentrate on making guests happy is a thing. I just want to shave my face with razor blades that don’t come from stupid commie-appeasing jerks. Is that so much to ask?
When I was at Disney World a few years ago I visited Main Street, which is Disney for adults. There’s no entry charge, food is reasonable and you can walk around with a drink in your hand. There’s even a store where you can get an $80 artisanal shave. They will sell you a $280 German straight razor, too.
At the time when Gillette and Harry’s went wonkers I was happy to be with DSC. despite the BLM donation I stayed due to inertia and no ready alternative. I note Jeremy’s pre-order cost is $60. At that price I might consider them is they were personally delivered to me by his biologically female staff. 🙂
The only thing I noticed and followed were the female helpers. Did not listen to the audio at all.
GREAT news, but feel free to move this comment to a more appropriate area if necessary, as it is off-topic with the above video.
Congratulations to all Indiana residents !
Indiana Governor Eric Holcomb just signed a bill that makes Indiana the 24th Constitutional Carry state. That means NO permit is needed to carry concealed.

This is also good news for all law abiding Conservative Americans, as almost half the United States now needs no carry permits.
Let freedom ring.
God bless America.
Molon Labe.
F___ Joe Biden.
(PS) To all liberals and gun control fanatics- SUCK ON IT!
That’s cool about the guns but the Indiana governor just vetoed a bill that would have disallowed “trans” boys from competing in girls’ sports. Eric is a jackass and he’s not helping real people, he’s helping phony people and that’s causing a lot of harm.
Here… read about Eric Holcomb and his deliberate failure to protect girls from the psycho bastards pretending they belong. https://spectator.org/eric-holcomb-transgender-sports/
To us patriots he has been a disappointment from the beginning. He easily bends in the wind because he has no moral backbone.
That’s right… you’re in Bean Blossom these daze. I never read about your gov until just now. A total jackass. But New Mexico is infected, too. Gov. Michelle has the keys to Zorro Ranch and was hired early by Bill Richardson who used to cavort there. He’s in Epstein’s little black book. Michelle was his “health secretary” so she’s been rubbing up against the big pharma slime forever.
When you grumpy old farts finally do the Mencken Black Flag Thing, first kill off any stray Redditors in your Boomer Battalions. The Monstrous Regiment of Gender Non Specific Redditors has gone done it again:
“Reddit got another ukranian squad killed. Officially reddit killed more people than 4 chan”
https://twitter.com/not__vee/status/1506167870866214922
Reddit didn’t get them killed, vanity did.
You’re damn right our values are misaligned. PS: Fuck You (said to those to whom I desire no specific harm/ otherwise, I love you).
It’s a good commercial, although a bit gay. BTW, who shaves, anyway?
Right. I have 40 year old unused razor blades still in the original packaging.
It mentioned homo so that’s far more than I can tolerate.
I mancot everything.
The guy selling razors has a full beard. I guess you can do that when we’re distracted by titties.
I maintain a short beard but shave the neck, front and back, every day.
Gerard, it’s a great advertisement. That the younger members didn’t think it was great only proves how great it actually is. They say they only watched for the tatas, but also watched the whole four minutes, about 8-20 times too long for an ad.
As they mature they will realize tatas are like spice or flavoring to the main dish. Nobody wants to eat pounds of just garlic or bacon, but a bacon-wrapped lambchop is a delight; it is great. So too is an advertisement for some thing, if it is crafted with a judicious sprinkling of tatas. It worked.
LOL – whatta hoot!
That was great! Bitch-slapped Gillette and torched Harry’s without breaking a sweat.
Where did he get that hot little flamethrower? I want one.
Casey K,please don’t even think of shaving that glorious chin adornment.
Noted. Thank you.
Good commercial. Shame he didn’t run over Little Benny at the start.
The guy selling razors has a full beard. I guess you can do that when we’re distracted by titties.
New brand… Occam’s Razors. Our motto.
Shave just enough so you don’t look like a bum.
Just so. I shave maybe once every two weeks. As well I have not cut my hair in three years.
Makes one long for the days of Shave and a Haircut, Two Bits.
Inneresting link. At age 2, about 1957, I got my first haircut at what was at the time the oldest barber shop in Carlisle. It was tradition in our family that all the boys (3 of em) got their first haircut there. The barber’s last name was Brenneman and his father and grandfather all worked there. I haven’t been back there since 1966 when we moved to Florida so I don’t know if that barbershop is still in existence. Probably caved to one of the chain places that popped up in the 80’s, like Haircrafters.
Ghostsniper, there are not many old school barbershops around. There were one or two left in my neck of the woods, ten years ago, but nowadays, new places that have opened claiming to be old school barbershops, are more like a ladies salon than a barbershop. I miss old school barbershops, having the back of my neck shaved with a straight razor, and a hot towel at the end. Here in Michigan, there really aren’t many barbers left. They’re all “stylists.” And you can’t get your neck shaved with a straight razor, cause that takes additional training and “licensing.”
There was an old barber in Portland whom I visited when my hair got a bit shaggy. He was about 75 and smoked cigarettes while he cut hair. Hot, wet towel, and a straight razor. Old School to his core.
Yes! John and Ghost. Going to the barbershop now is a crapshoot, and I notice the ladies who cut hair rotate out frequently, and their destination jobs are…
The one my 20 year old son and I now go to is relatively convenient, has a pool table, and is kind of fun. The staff give a mixed performance, and this is just another brick from the wall of societal down-spiral.
Going to a barber in the 50s – 70s (in army towns) was a simple affair, and it didn’t take that much to please a fellow. Razor cuts, hot shaves, buzzer that didn’t bite.
Knowing this lot at AD, we’d be happier to go back to cowboy shaves. https://youtube.com/clip/UgkxbEjJ7q5L29dsZfeF04yS8X7_IqXLzAtL
Casey, the on base, civilian, barbers at Pearl Harbor were the best I’ve ever experienced. And if I was lucky, I’d get to drop into one of the six chairs there manned by one of the beautiful Filipino ladies.
Ghost, if you find yourself in Sarasota, stop by Pat’s Barbershop on Beneva Road. Great haircuts for a reasonable price. Pat has been cutting my hair for fifteen years.
Another grift. Slightly different flavor.
It’s literally the same scheme as using woke ideals to sell overpriced crap.
I want products with no politics involved outside of how good the products are and how well they treat their help.
It was a hilarious commercial. But if I were Harry’s that’s the commercial and sub-brand I would make to corner the left and right markets. Makes you wonder. And you are correct, I trust no one anymore.
Na, I use Harry’s for the quality of blade, remarkable actually, as I age my beard s getting thicker, which sucks. I hate shaving!
Don’t you guys get it, grow a set of nuts, could give a flying fuck what TV says. Yup er I understand TV tells us how to live, what to drive, eat and drink, and apparently now what to shave with.
Turn the turd tube off, live long!
We were so poor that we used broken glass for blades.
Sure, we slashed ourselves to ribbons, but we were tough and we didn’t give a dang.
We had it better than our neighbors, who were so poor that they shaved by scraping their faces on the sidewalk.
Women folk didn’t shave at all (if you can believe that). They knitted underarm hair into doilies. How they did that one handed I don’t know. I’ll ask my Dad.
“Hey, Pop! How did Ma knit her underarm hair into doilies?”
“Hard to say, but it was pretty nauseating to watch. I had to leave the room.”
I’ve taken to forming my nose hair into a moustache and the hair growing out of my ears into braids.
They used to put a slot in the back of medicine cabinets so you could drop used double-edged razor blades safely into the wall.
I remodel bathrooms, have recovered dozens of those rusty double edged blades, and shave with them after a derusting and a bit of stropping. Much better than broken glass.
Almost pissed myself!
Okay, well, I did, a little.
See the Sam Elliott shave I posted above. It’s extra close.
My haircutter I had frequented for 3 years demanded I wear a mask in the salon. I turned around and left. I figured the ladies would not want a customer whom they considered dangerous to their health. So I never returned.
(Aside: I actually asked my doctor if he thought I was going to kill him with a symptomless virus I might be carrying. He responded, “I don’t want to die.” Never did offer me any defense against the Wuhan flu. Some doctor. But I digress.)
The haircutter shop is now out of business. My wife cuts my hair, saving me at least $20 per month.
They literally pushed their customers away, just like Gillette and now Harry’s has.
It’s certainly an entertaining commercial. Lots o’ fun moments. Great looking chicks. But this guy is wearing a toupee… he’s got a full beard… he sounds quite gay… and he’s maybe five foot three, if that. Does he shave the higher portion of his cheeks and then below to keep the neck clean? Does he own the company? Just an actor? So many questions. hmmmmm….
