  • Brush: Farvour Turncraft 26mm Omega Boar #TOLL
  • Razor: Schick Eversharp Eagle TTO #UNICORN
  • Blade: Astra SP (Green) (2)
  • Lather: Summer Break Soaps – Cannonball!
  • Post Shave: Summer Break Soaps – Cannonball!
  • Fragrance: Paris Hilton For Men – EdT

Before Ron Burgundy made an ass of himself and spoofed his own inclination of reading inappropriate things on the teleprompter before jumping into a swimming pool, Hamilton “Ham” Porter–the Great Hambino–exclaimed the titular summertime dive…”Cannonball!”

The Sandlot tops the list of my greatest baseball films, and there is stiff competition for number one, because it’s a movie the whole Donut family loves to watch together. Though the baseball rescue becomes the focus, the swimming pool sequence is, by far, the best diversion in the storyline. When Cannonball! came out, I knew I had to have it, if only to have a fresh and tangible way of relating to that classic moment. Just because Ham and Michael “Squints” Palledorous exuded the confidence I wish I had as a kid. Then I might’ve had my own Wendy Peffercorn moment….

Today, Paris Hilton will have to stand in for Wendy. Well, Paris Hilton for Men, anyway. Its mango, tart grapefruit, and lemon notes pair well with the citrusy accords of Cannonball! and help keep the pool party going throughout the day.

I had a great shave with the Schick Eversharp Eagle, a great eBay find that fits the #UNICORN criteria that the Krona actually does not–made before 1971. This one likely in 1969 as the handle tip features the Schick branding.
