    I was starting to think you were going to need a bigger box, for all the goodies. Shave physics goes by some type of advanced mathematics that we as a culture have yet to fully understand.

    Did you find the two salt shakers from the Golden Corral that I put in the box? ;)

    Thanks for the tips and tricks, Charlie!
    Without a doubt, there will be another razor on standby. As for under the nose...that's one less worry. I have a goatee of sorts. More like a fu manchu with a soul patch. Don't ask.
    The reason for the purchase of the SRX is multipurpose. First off, it'll help decide if the dark side is in my future. I have a straight that I restored, which still needs to be honed. So, by getting the SRX, I can practice straight technique without concern of stropping. Additionally, if I find it enjoyable, and get technique down a bit, when I do get the straight honed I'll (hopefully) be able to feel what a proper straight razor edge should feel like. Then, should I ever decide to hone myself, I'll have an idea of what to shoot for. That's the plan. Not that I ever follow plans.

    And, nope...still don't have a nice bathroom. It's inching closer, yet still not done. You wouldn't want me as one of your contractors. :)

    Believe it or not, but I actually can knit. Haven't in quite awhile, but I can. I've even made a couple pairs of socks. Hand knit socks. Best. Socks. Ever.
    And, the answer is a firm "no". I will not make you a pair. ;)

    Sounds like that ad where the woman has a big hamburger in her hands and says "Best....burger....EV-ER".

    In all seriousness, Bruce, I have nothing but respect for your skill. Good folks knit and donate baby blankets and head coverings, etc. to the children's hospital where my Bride and I volunteer. We get to deliver them to families. If the family is not there, we just cover the babies with them. It's super cool in my book if a bunch of guys are busy knitting for my sweet kiddos.

    I have big feet, and my favorite color is blue...in case you're looking for something to do after the bathroom is complete. ;)

    If I'm asked a game show trivia question and can call a friend, I'm calling you, Paul. :yoda We'll split the winnings and then go crazy buying Stoylin soaps. Maybe even some of Bill Neumann's soap if we hit it big time. (Stop reading now, @Primotenore) No worries, we'll make the Eddie Pinaud purchase later with bingo winnings. ;)
