    Default Hi From Orlando!

    Hello, all!

    My name's JettaGLi16v, and I live in Orlando Fl, but I am not FloridaMan.

    I love German cars, straight razors, and bourbon, though I try not to enjoy any of those simultaneously. I am a semi-expert on Swimming pools (I have been working in the industry since I was 15 - over half of my life!), so I am happy to answer questions on that topic as well!

    EDIT: A Safe way to combine bourbon and straight razors:

    I have been shaving with a straight razor for a little over 3 years, and get fairly decent results, even though I have a very difficult face to shave (I think so anyway). I have a moderate case of all the disorders. RAD = 9 straights, 3 DE; SAD = Shoot, maybe 15+; BAD = 7(?) brushes. That's most of my afflictions.

    My next venture is honing / touching up.. I have been sending my razors to my current honemeister every 6 months or so for a touch up, but I Bought an Imperia la Roccia, and a Shapton pro 12k, and have one successful touch up under my belt (ILR) so far!

    Thanks for having me!

    Hello and welcome to SRP!
    I'm not sure about German cars, but you'll find plenty of people here that are passionate about straight razors and bourbon.
    Have fun and enjoy your time here on the forum!

    Thanks for the warm welcome, man!

    I should have included this link, but here's a safe way to combine Booker's Bourbon and straight razors!

    (I have since added a beautiful 7/8+ Henckels Fridour, and gotten some awesome bone scales for my big W&B wedge..)
