    Yes, I have a support for RAD - win a multi-million Powerball Jackpot. :-)

    As someone here said long ago, "Shoot for comfort, not closeness" . That's the most sage advice I can think of in this situation.

    And while you shoot for comfort, the closeness and great shaves will develop and come in time.

    Congrats on the bbs shave. For me, I keep it a two passes and comfortable. If I went for bbs it would take that much longer before I could shave again, 6 days a week comfy shave....unless we're going out


    RAD is a dangerous thing, I find lack of funds helps quite a bit...but only until you decide to sell off the buggers that haven't come out of the drawer in a while.

    See I check out the auctions and look at the best prices and try and see what kind of pictures they look like if there are a lot of pictures and it seems okay I'll buy them on the cheap and hope for the best, if they're cheap and wind up being in bad condition I don't lose too much, however.....Rad is becoming quite dangerous as it's becoming more frequent!

    The cure for RAD is poverty.

    The best disorder is SKAD: skills acquisition disorder. Its a rare affliction, requiring long gestation with extended periods of frustration, with only periodic episodes of success. But full blown infection seems like it would be quite rewarding - so I keep trying.
