    Even the term "baby butt-smooth" is quoted from Lynn Abrams. I did get a healthy chuckle out of that - is this a Virginia paper?
    Find me on SRP's official chat in ##srp on Freenode. Link is at top of SRP's homepage

    NO the paper is out of Parkersburg West Virgina. I live near the state line which happens to be th Ohio River. The article in the paper has pictures of the barbershop that is mentioned in the article. In one the guy is being shaved with a shavette disposiable. in the other the barber is stroping a real straight. Lynn being quoted in the article makes me wonder if they contacted him via email of phone. or if they just gathered up a few quotes off the site.

    Thanks Don. Is it just me or has there been a little bit more info on straight shaving in the mainstream media recently? It's good to see.

    Nice article. I was just in Parkersburg last week or the week before and picked up a nice Boker with the tree on the scales for 10 dollars .
