Please allow me to introduce myself:


Username:
JohnP

What is your real name?
John

What are your nicknames/aliases?
"porkchop"

Where do you live?
San Diego

What is your age (or) generation?
32

What are you in the real world?
Navy helicopter rescue swimmer

What is your favorite shave setup?
I like variety. One day I will lather up using a nice cream and shave with a straight, the next I might use canned gillette gel and a DE, and the following day lather up with a soap, and use an M3P......I have no real brand loyalties, only good products, great products, and the alternatives. Edit: favorite brush to date-SMF shavemac. By a big margin.

What are your hobbies and favorite activities?
Well, this stuff is sortof a new one which started from a long string of things. I work. A lot. But in the mean time I enjoy camping, surfing the web (I'mhere, after all), and games. There are lots of things I enjoy that are also on hold, as I live in a tiny apartment for the moment....

What else should the members of B&B know about you?
Word of mouth. Its what got me started; years ago a guy I worked with mentioned he used a straight and loved it. So on and off I experimented with the brush and soap part (straights are pricey when you are used to 4 dollar atra s....) then years later I went for broke at a mall, bought a strop, a razor, some conk soap, and a week later, my first vulfix brush (before that I used burma shave brushes). Another week went by, I joined SRP (the yahoo version) wetshavers, and pretty much anything else I could find. This continues. I think I, as well as some others on here, are somewhat compulsive in that way. Don't think so? Ask us how many shaving creams or straight razors we have.....
