Howdy folks! Brand new to the forum. been wet shaving for 8 years, and got into vintage safety razors about 6 months ago. I hail from Fate, Texas and love it here in the semi-country. I am a critical care paramedic as to the username (funny story about the name ask me about it sometime). I am a proud father of 2 boys (4, and 2) got an amazing wife, and just am quite a happy-go-lucky guy. I love meeting new people and exemplify a extrovert. I have gotten sucked down the rabbit hole and have acquired RAD, SAD and BAD lol. My latest hobby is finding adn restoring vintage safety razors. Glad to be here! *EDIT* My current fave shave set up is cooper and french fair island harbor soap and balm, a G1 fatboy or supply single edge, witch hazel, and Proraso Red if im feeling a aftershave. but this changes so so so much who know what ill use next lol. Your Friendly Neighborhood Bambulanceman.
I'm a part of 3 shave forums this one is more or less "home" for me. Sent from my XT1710-02 using Tapatalk
Lol ok. So when I first got my EMT basic back in 2009 my current partner and I were eating at an amazing pizza place called Zini's in Dallas Texas. As we came out this homeless man called out to me and said "HEY... you drive dat der bambulance?" "yes sir I do" "good on you bambulanceman get er done" my partner and I laughed for the rest of the shift over it. It has been my nickname ever since.
@BambulanceMan welcome to the Den from Central NJ. You're gonna love it here! Looking forward to seeing your posts. Enjoy your shaves!!
Welcome! I am also from Texas (Dallas), but I am from Rockwall. It's a great time for menthols in this weather. You have got to try Stirling soaps.
HA! were neighbors. I'm like a couple miles from you. Oh man i concur on menthol I have both arctique and cryogen. I need some Stirling Glacial Obsidian.
My favorite Stirling glacials are Margaritas in the Arctic and Eskimo tuxedo. I also like the black cherry, but I developed a sensitivity to it. Although not glacial, I would place iced pineapple very high on my mentholated list as well.
Welcome to the Den. With a name like @BambulanceMan I know I have met you before. Over at the rodent, right? Haven't I? Any how, it doesn't matter either way, you are still welcome here.
