    Default When will the madness end???

    Moving into week 3 of straight shaving. Told myself it was because I can save all this money from not buying cartridges. First razor was ebony scale Dovo 5/8, full hollow ground round point. I found a 6/8 quarter-hollow Wacker french point which I just ordered today, because for some reason I think I need a stiffer razor (I just tell myself that, because actually, what the hell do I know...). A few days ago I received my BBW and Yellow Coticule... which I practiced on a Double Arrow (mercifully donated by a fellow SRP member).... Now I find myself waking up at 5:30AM for NO GOOD REASON just so I can get some extra time to ... ahem... SHAVE...

    Oh, forgot to mention I spend my "free time" reading SRP...

    When will the madness end?????

    It ends when you send me all of your razors and enter the 13 step program I sell online.

    Hahaha I told my GF that... and she believed it for the first two razors..
    When will it end? Wel it might end if you cut your whiskers so deep that you hit an artery... or you could lower your standards for a good shave and buy yourself a lawnmower to do the job.. now that I think of it... its pretty tough to shave if you are wearing a straitjacket.

    The good thing is that with practice you will be able to shave a lot faster.. I'm already down to 20 minutes for a three pass shave if I have to.. stretching to half an hour if I can.

    I to started with straights so I could save money. But I have spent enough on razors and other shaving stuff to pay for cartriges for the rest of my life.
    But I am willing to admit, I have RAD
