    Default being spoiled

    You know once upon a time I just shaved and went about my business. Now after being on this web site, listening to all and trying new and wonderful things ( new soaps creams and most of all razors and watching the videos) I hate to admit it but I'm spoiled. the common variety shaving soap and the throw away razors are defiantly out. I've been honing my own lately and then a friend honed 2 for me and went up to a 20K stone and I really believe that's going to really spoil me. I tried one of my honing jobs this morning and although it was doing the job put it down and got the one he did with the 20K. world of difference. next thing you know I'll be taking long and soaking baths while sipping fine wine and listening music (merle haggard Waylon Jennings and willy nelson). I wonder am I getting soft in my old age. I guess it takes age to make you appreciate the finer things in life.

    Regardless of how great my shaving journey becomes,,,I can't see myself lying in a bubble bath, sipping wine & thinking about three old white men,,,,

    Is it because they are old or is it because they are white?

    OK How about Diana Ross-Aretha Franklin-and all the Mo-Town groups. I believe I love them all. Along with the older country I also love the greats from that era.

    Don't let those bastages rain on your happy parade. It just eats 'em up when somebody has a sharper razor and a better daydream than they do - no matter how unfocused.

    Good judgment comes from experience, and experience....well that comes from poor judgment.
