    Hmm.. I haven't tried JD as an after shave, but that might be on the to do list. As soon as I am of age of course.

    But I really enjoyed the spirit of the post, and my have to use my old crusty Klaas tomorrow just for the fun of it.

    My dear Blade Wielder,

    It is not that some of us on SRP try to sound Victorian British. No, not at all. Some of us actually do prefer to use proper English — unless writing dialogue where need might arise for slang or cool words.

    "Hey, dude, I'm thinkin' about gettin' a cutthroat razor . . ."

    Oy . . .

    I feel heartbroken for the letter "g" as it is often eliminated from words by many English-speaking people. "Thinkin'," "Gettin'" — the poor letter "g" keeps "getting" the shaft.

    As for the noun "dude," it reminds me of a green horn from back East facing a gunslinger in a Hollywood Western.

    "Thanking" you for your thoughts and "Signing" off with regards,

    Obie
