    Well, at least people here using the next best alternative. I know that's what got me into straight shaving; that is, the cost effective way of shaving and the finer treatment of the facial skin following the shave. If I could only have those years back, those darker times when I tore my face up and spent oodles of money on an inferior product, well, I would be a happy man.

    I should have used the DE today. Here's todays little whine from me. Usually I would have been off working in the peace and quiet of the bush, well away from SWMBO and the little rats she tells me are my daughters. However this time, I was advised it was way too wet out on the farm to get anything done and to enjoy a sleep in for a change. Advice I took happily. Today I get up at the leisurely time of 0630 (instead of 0330) SWMBO is already up as she takes the eldest of the rats to Softball. The rest of those rats was tearing around the house early as well, getting ready to go too. I get up and enjoy a nice shower, get out, and settle in for a relaxing shave. I'm just into the first pass with my OCD custom 8/8 when all hell breaks loose. The door bursts in. I assailed by the horrendous screams of the banshee that I call my wife, as she screams at the kids to "...get in here and brush yer teeth. We gotta go!". This is followed by the stampede of little feet, just before I'm assaulted, jogged and jostled on three fronts as the little vermin vie for postion at the bathroom sink, like pigs to the feeding trough.
    I tell you, I was lucky to escape with my life and I will dread the next time I get to sleep in. Perhaps I'll just try and sleep a little longer, or at least pretend to until the house is real, real quiet. No nicks or cuts this time, but it was the fastest shave I ever had, just to get the hell outta the way.
