A Way Of Life that I love.

This got me thinking, I think of "wet shaving" and "collecting straights" as a hobby as well, but more than that it's interesting to think of wet shaving especially maintaining straight razors as a "way of life"....who among you share this sentiment, and tell me what does does this 'way of life' mean to you?

This is specifically for SR's only because that's my interest, but obviously this applies to 'wet shaving' in general.
