    Default Straight shaving - a wellness experience (in German)

    A blogger from Germany's leading news weekly (Der SPIEGEL, his blog is called "Simply Style") pays a visit to a barber - and quite likes it. Blurb in German, for which apologies. He does not, however, mention the war.

    Looks enjoyable indeed ... but don't mention the war !
    The white gleam of swords, not the black ink of books, clears doubts and uncertainties and bleak outlooks.

    Check out that warning sticker on the DOVO. It says something like "Touching the cutting edge can cause injury."

    Am I the only one who find these inane, coddling warnings mandated by bureaucrats insulting.

    You're not the only one, but do as I do, laught about it.
    Once I saw a set of knifes made in China that had the warning sticker: "Warning, this may cut" which leads me to think "Yeah, I hope so".

    Yep, laughter is the correct response. One of my favourites is on some cigarette lighters, "Hold well away from face".

    What is sad is that some people need them!
    It is easier to fool people than to convince them they have been fooled. Twain
