    I believe you got it covered lol.
    Stropping while naked should maybe move up a notch or two!

    Is 9/10 good enough? I have a problem following Commandment #1. There are just so many straights that I like to use...

    Nothing on hones? Maybe it was on the third tablet that got smashed.

    Thou shall keep thy hone lapped and ready.
    Shaving with facial hair is like a golfcourse. It's a challenge of rough and fairways. You are the skilled greenskeeper of your face?

    Asked to contribute I would just say this : ) :

    "The happiest people don't have the best of everything,
    they just make the best of everything."


    Enjoy the toys you have, get to know them and enhance only when ready or mastered, not because everyone else has 16 of everything. Too much of a good thing can be distracting.
