Tangent:
I once heard “the whole nine yards” referred to the size of a cement truck in the 20’s or so. That is, 9 cubic yards. So if they would have to pour out ALL the cement, the foreman would shout: “Pour the whole nine yards !”, or words to that effect.

I shave wet, against the grain, always. Gillette Sensor, and Gillette Gel. No matter what kind of razor I use, I can’t get a close shave. Even the mighty Mach 3 (which is the best yet) leaves me with a light gray shadow. I’ve been cursed with a dark beard.
And shaving with an electric, is like shaving with the palm of my hand. It does no good, whatsoever. Is anyone else out there unfortunate enough to have a really dark beard like me?

OK, Vestal, if you must know - for about 30 minutes after waking I am incoherent, half blind, hear out of one ear, and bump into walls, doorjams, and other family members. I also feel no pain. Who needs alcohol? Just wake me up and I’m wasted! Does this sound like someone who should be holding a sharp instrument to his throat?
After the shower.
Dry.
Against the grain.
Discovered in the army that it is the fastest way to become alert and ready for action. For an extra kick after a good binge, splash liberally with sea breeze immediately afterward.

ROFL!

I’m surprised more people don’t use electric razors. I’ve used the top-of-the-line Norelcos for years and have been very happy with the results.
I usually shave while sitting on the can after my shower in the mornings. Hey, I’m not doing anything else while I relieve myself. Might as well put the time to good use. Sort of multi-tasking, I guess. (Sorry if that was more info than people wanted to know.)
No problem, DJ… I’ll just leave quietly now…no sudden movements or loud noises

“Hey! How 'bout that Toe Jam?”
Dirty Devil:
Yeah, me too. Except I use a Gillette Sensor and Edge gel. I rinse the blade off in the toilet tank (It would be disgusting to use the bowl! Yecch!)
Just kidding. I actually shave at the sink. I hold the razor in my right hand for the entire shave, starting at my right cheek, going to the middle, then from the left cheek to the middle. Then my neck. Also, I shave with the grain (Just a takes a couple of weeks to get the same shave as going against the grain - for me, anyway). Unlike some of the water wasters out there (ahem…UKE…ahem), I shut the water off between rinsings. Afterwards I towel my face off, apply after-shave baum, notice that I missed some spots just below and behind my ears, right underneath my lower lip, and in the cleft of my chin, then reshave those portions.

Sorry, bud, that ain’t exactly hairy. Now, if you had to shave at noon everyday, after having shaved at 7 that morning (ala Richard Nixon), then that would be hairy!

As long as that post was, I should clarify something. I used to shave against the grain, then started shaving with the grain. It took a couple weeks of shaving with the grain to get the same closeness that I had gotten when I shaved against it.

i shave my legs and etc. in the shower… and if i use anything, it’s usually just shampoo or whatevers around.
