    No, it was a Panasonic Vortex Hydraclean. Great razor, I just had other things in mind. Did own a Braun once, actually twice after the first one crapped out on me after three years. Wait a minute, Rich you clever devil, you just made me commit a form of apostasy... Da t

    My wife has hardly said a word about it. I think she's used to me becoming obsessed with weird things.

    "apostasy was Word of the Day on July 18, 2002.

    Dictionary.com Word of the Day"

    So I guess he's been waiting almost five years.

    No really, she is ok with it, she just complains that I spend too much time on the internet, and why can't I just shave like normal people. You cannot explain it to her because she isn't interested.
    That is so familiar...why can't you just use your Mach III you are always pratting about with those bloody things.

    Pfffff..............

    My wife thinks I'm nuts, but she enjoys the after affects I even shaved her legs for her, now she wants me to shave her legs all the time.

    At first my wife was annoyed with the amount of time it took me to shave while I was learning to use the straight (between 45 minutes and an hour), but now that I can do the whole shebang in about 20 minutes, she's okay with it. She likes the fact that I'm not tossing spent cartridges into the wastestream nor spending money on them (around $2.50 each). She especially likes the excellent BBS results.

    Thus far into the hobby, I haven't had this *problem* , but I'd like to think it could be intriguing to potential mates.


    Who was it that got the "sittable face" compliment? Pimpin'...

    No girlfriends or wife here, but my friends and family do think I'm nuts.
