Got your towel?...
Good! Then let's get started!
So, where to start? Hmmm... Good question, but I guess the beginning ought to suffice for now...
What do I want out of this journal? Not a lot actually, just a place to store random ramblings, rants, ideas, bad ideas, stupid ideas, and rubber chickens. After all what's life without a good rubber chicken?
But what about shaving and straight razors?
Ah, yes I guess I ought to include that as well...
Backstory!?
Well yes, someone else may actually read this...
Oh good grief why!? And isn't there a 12 step program for that?
Yes I believe there is...
Good, they'll need it if they spend too much time here...
Okay, okay... The story... The story is that I've been shaving with a straight razor for just over a year now and loving it! My straight razor shave is every bit as good as my DE shave ever was, and in some ways better! This wasn't always so. It's taken practice, experimentation, and not being overly caffeinated...
That's what the towel is for isn't it?...
Yes, and the rubber chicken as well...
But...
Don't ask. The answer may cause a rift in the space/time continuum... Just keep calm and have your towel and rubber chicken handy...
My collection? Well, yes I do have a collection of straight razors...
How many?...
Hmmm... Good question. Haven't really counted them lately, must be at least 50 or so... Just got a new one in the mail today. A shoulderless faux frameback JR Torrey in nice shape, should clean up beautifully...
What about the rest?...
Really? Ya' gotta' go there?...
Well yes, actually...
You're quite mad you know...
Yes, I do know...
Alright then I'll get some pictures posted... Eventually
What about...
I think we've had quite enough of this for today... We'll talk again later...
Okay...
