Scott,

A thing to consider on stropping is this.
I strop the evening before. That way
I have more time in the morning for
shaving.

Now this is debatable, some other members
do this as well...

For drying I use this little trick. I believe
that Rtaylor mentioned it many months
ago.

Lay a towel on a flat surface and back
hone the blade. By backhone I mean
lay the blade flat and lead...

......and spend a couple of minutes lathering
up. This is a large part of the enjoyment of
this addiction.

I will stress again that while stropping
take your time. Take it sloooow, speed
means nothing. Be sure that you don't
lift the spine.

Are you planning on giving yourself
a Christmas morning shave?

I'm sure that you will enjoy it.
I wish you success.
