    I have no problem admitting attorneys. I just slow down when I talk and use smaller words.

    We really do appreciate it too! :happy088: People that try to talk way above their level and use big words they don't actually know what mean cause us perturbation or maybe befuddlement or maybe it is beguilement. Either way, I opine that for you, talking slow and using small words is probably a wise course of action. ;)

    Thank you. When I don't have the family with me, I allow myself more shave items, so I have a decently stocked kit this time.

    I'll definitely do some write up at the end if the month. It feels to me that the angle of attack is bit different for the two razors, though. I have to be real flat against my face with the OC, not quite as much on the C3. I have B1 coming as well, so I may make it a Repeat November and work on all three.

    Schick Type C1
    Stirling Unscented PSB
    Brut Classic AS

    A shave very similar to yesterday. All I can say about these Schick Repeating Razors Is they are fantastic. I love them. I think they are now my favorite razors, which is saying a lot, as I really enjoy some of my other razors.

    I know it pales in comparison to many here, but I couldn't think of a better group of guys to share my 2000th post with. By my reckoning that's 5% substance and 95% shenanigans.

    You're a good sport William!

    Though, isn't the phrase "honorable profession" associated with the word "attorney" called an - oxymoron? :think002:

    all this talk of big fancy words got me thinking about this guy...
