Hi Tim,
That watch forum you belong to is a good one. Maybe 5-6 years ago I was spending a fair bit of time over there, along with another watch forum or two. Whew, now that's a 'hobby' you can spend some cash on......as you probably already know. Thankfully, I'm pretty much a recovering WIS now....heh.
This place reminds me of TZ-UK as far as the atmosphere and members go. These guys do speak kinda strangely at times, but that shouldn't be a problem for you after a while. You just gotta learn a few various terms and such.
Keep in mind we will do our best to enable........I mean educate you about this goofy shaving thing. And yes, it can get pretty goofy.

Oh.....maybe I should mention that a post by Michael (LeisureGuy) about shaving over at that other forum was what sent me down this damn bottomless badger burrow years ago. From one screwy thing to another.
