  6. Have you tried the hot as you can stand it bath then pile on a bunch of coats and blankets and sleep for 12 hours trick?

    With all the talk of injectors floating around here lately I decided to pull this never used by me Easy Rider model out of my "razor box", clean it up and give it a whirl, resulting in a pretty nice shave

    The Schick razor/blade combo worked pretty well, leaving just a few hairs like I normally experience when I use a later model injector, but the great Proraso cream and Brut scent pulled this up to a 4.5 blade shave.
  10. Yeah, bring a hookah too while you're at it :D
