Okay. Will take note, thanks.

I always say, 'Arise chicken!'

Tsk; you fixed up the spelling error in 'stropping' already; and I was gonna be all witty... :-)

Noxema is a good shave prep. It is a non oily menthol creme. Put it on while you are prepping your shave soap. It feels like proraso but only cost 5$ for a tub..
