    Default introduction (formal)

    hey. just thought i'd upload a pic of myself, blurry and indistinct as it may be. these were some nice leftover waves from the hurricane that tore across florida last year or the year before; i forget which. of course, no one wants to take pictures when the waves are two feet overhead because everyone is out surfing them, and you can't surf and take pictures at the same time, so all i have to show for my heroic forays into ridiculously dangerous hurricane surf is this picture of a two-foot glassy leftovers day. nice to meet everyone here.



    also, here is my shave setup. all i have is a camera phone, and a shitty one at that, so this is as good as it gets. the razor with the white emblem on the scales is my dovo 5/8 and the other is the shave-ready i got from a member, a torrey 5/8 (i think it's 5/8, anyway). the brush is a vulfix boar bristle, the soap is williams, and the two little containers are colleen's sample shave creams. my new favorite scent is coconut. the bowl is a 3 dollar ceramic ramekin i got from the kitchen store at the mall. i think you're supposed to use it to make creme brulee. and the black plate they're all sitting on is the faux marble tile i got at lowe's (50 cents!) for lapping my norton.

    Nice to meet ya dude... Surfing is something I'd definitely like to try if I ever move to Australia. Nothing dangerous ever happens in this part of Canada. I was forced into martial arts, snowboarding and bad women to get my adrenaline fix. The ramiken is a great idea. I am currently using some Chilean clay bowls previously used for nuking eggs for my breakfast sandwiches. Also you get thumbs up for the faux marble idea. I'll have to hit home depot and see what they've got as soon as I get some free time.

    Actually, no you didn't. You spelled it correctly (ramekin) in your first post. http://www.dict.org/bin/Dict?Form=Di...&Query=Ramekin

    Ramiken is actually incorrect. This message brought to you by the letters O.E.D. and the number 2

    Don't be so hard on yourself

    Sorry to be a spelling cop, every now and then it pops out and runs around screaming before I manage to smack it a few times and stuff it back in my ear.

    i wish i could take credit for the faux marble tile, but someone else on this site suggested it in a different thread. how bad are the women up that way, anyway?
