Thread: Scar

Yeah Mark, I like firefox better than safari anyway --it seems a little faster.

You can also use html tags for each one. In some views, clicking the icon inserts the tag into your text so you can see what it is. For example, the tag for : is colon gth colon. The colons are characters, not spelled out.

You'll probably learn the tags for your favorites.

Seriously, though. Check out all the extensions/add ons for ffox and you'll never go back. At the moment, AdBlock Plus is working for me by taking *any* web page and stripping all the advertisements off of it, along with blocking almost all the popups out there, and this is to say nothing of the ones that let you recover crashed sessions and the like...

As far as the scar goes, there are a few products available in yer local pharmacy which claim to lessen the appearance of scars - Mederma is one of them IIRC. I've never used the stuff, but maybe it'll help!

I have a nice scar above my chin that I got from straight shaving. It is not really an issue to shave over now, but when it was deeper and harder, I just stretched the skin used small strokes and almost a negative pressure. Over time I got better at shaving over the texture, and the scar itself smoothed enough that it didnt catch on the blade.

I've got a new scar from cutting myself last week with my straight, its still in the healing process but I hope it doesnt leave much of a visible scar

just remember to pay attention to ALL the blade, not just the part you intend to shave with. 3" of sharp steel is hard to keep track of

I think my scar adds character, but my wife doesnt care for it. I realized once I got my scar, which happened by cutting the same area 3 or 4 times over several shaves, that I was attempting to move the blade over to another part of my face without fully lifting the blade from my skin, then went I went over the area again I tore open the small cut!

Anyway, hopefully Im the only one dopey enough to do that
