Greetings and salutations from middle Tennessee! Please excuse and tolerate my warped sense of humor. I got back into wet shaving last year and have yet to find the bottom of the rabbit hole---although there are many side passages!!
Anyway, I hope I can be accepted for what I am!
As an example, one of my SOTD posts.
Fear not good citizens of Gotham, for I 'Batman' patrol the streets and alleys this fine evening! I began a lather with The Battle, my Bat-sense had me on edge already, I reached for the VB Black Forest Pre-shave oil, applied and paused.....it was cloudy, could that have been a gunshot or just a clap of thunder? As I applied a hot towel to my face, I decided that I shall remain millionaire Bruce Wayne for the time being. After the first two passes with the Hoffritz cut-throat, I was interrupted by my butler Alfred. "Pardon me sir, the Commissioner is on the phone....." Down went my Hoffritz and I grabbed my Bat-razor (West Coast Shaving Midnight 47B with Astra Superior Platinum Blade) for the third and final pass. My hands slick from the soap, I rinsed my hands and rubbed my Alum stone to get some traction. With the third pass complete, a quick rinse accompanied by a second hot towel. Cold water splash and alum stone rub, another cold water rinse and then a double splash of The Battle Aftershave. Forest Frost Balm to finish. Now, to the Bat-cave! Under the blanket of protection that I provide for you.......... Sleep well, good citizens.
