Today I was changing the oil on my wife's truck and got oil on my face. My first thought was, "wow, that might provide a very smooth shave!".

I have found myself looking at people with different face types to me and wondering where the challenging bits to shave would be.
I like shaving when i'm shaving. Other than that I try to put it to the back of my mind. :w
@edhewitt - god, so true! When I'm watching movies and people have beards, I'm constantly thinking about the best angles for shaving.
Remember the TV series "Rome"?
In a nutshell, Julius Cesar shaved - which was not that common then - and he apparently shaved with olive oil.
As a consequence, I didn't raid my wife's kitchen cabinet, but I tried various massage oils.
Well, it can be done, but it was not something that I did pursue for long.
A wandering (wet-shaver's) mind is a dangerous thing....
BTW:
If 5W-40 gives you better mileage, will 5W-40 gives you better shaves too as "YMMV"??? :hmmm:
@beluga... awesome.
Straight razor shaving, what's that?
I was at a level crossing a few weeks ago, while waiting for the train to pass it occurred to me that the gate looked just like the profile drawing of a hollow ground blade. I took a pic with the intention of posting a new thread "things that look like a razor" but decided it might appear I'm insane.........here is the pic

What's that new cologne that you are wearing? Vavoline.
I think I'd worry a bit about cancer using used motor oil though. There are lot of organic nasties in that stuff.
@beluga
The early romans actually did shave as a way of distinguishing themselves from the greeks.
Not to mention the fact that southern Italy in the summer time with a beard would just be unbearable (IMO).
