Sounds good to me! I will be ording from him tonight, I'm super excited. And again thank you so much, I didn't mean to put it in there as like "hey look at me" lol, more as so you guys kinda know where I'm coming from. Shaving has always been a chore rather than a hobby and really an art form.

Thank you,

ScottyK9, there are a lot of SRP members in Florida. If you go to the membership list and under advanced search put in your city and see what comes up. If no one try easy driving cities to you and see who surfaces. I'd suggest a few I know in Florida but I don't know the geography of the state.

Will do, thank you. To be specific I live in Orlando and work for disney.

Hi and welcome. Sounds like you have done your research. Good luck and any questions feel free to ask.

Didn't think you were putting it out there like, "Hey look at me". Both my older brothers served in the Navy. The eldest did 6 years, my other brother did 8 active duty, and has been in the Pa National Guard for the last 20+, and did a tour in Iraq. I know what you guys go through, what a sacrifice it is, and how thankless it can be.

Thank you and it means a lot more than you know. I'll probably be going National Guard eventually. When you get a chance thank them for me. I appreciate it greatly.

I doubt anybody took it that way. Many of the gentlemen (and perhaps some of the ladies also) served in the armed forces of their respective country, and most of us on the board sincerely appreciate your service to your country. (There is a thread on here somewhere that the members list their service -- looking for you to add yours)

Looks like you are ready to start. Don't get discouraged from any blood the first few times -- it's pretty much a right of passage. Good luck, and continue to study the board and videos -- lots of good information here.

Thank you and it really does mean a lot me and many others. Well I'm sure I'll get a good but of blood out of myself, haha.

It seems I am nearly ready to start I am waiting on Larry @ whippeddog to get back to me and send me an invoice. Not sure how that works sent him an order and haven't heard anything but it must be the holiday.

Thank you,
~Scott.
