    That's one way of looking at it for sure. Me I think it is hilarious and kinda sad at the same time.

    I guess it's nothing more than a shave for those who can afford and want to say they did it. I don't fault anyone who has that kind of money, it's theirs so do it. Kinda like some of us don't drive a basic car, but my biggest problem is I ain't letting anyone shave me who can't shave himself, plus its just a DE Shave so nothing spectacular. But give him credit for finding a way to get publicity and make some coin at the same time. Tc

    All I can say is that PT Barnum may have been right.
