Come one, Come all!
Once more we wish to welcome you to the sometimes annual Support Badger and Blade Contest. This event is being brought to you by the self-appointed and self-important B&B Fund Raising Committee. Members include brianw, Luvmysuper, syngent, turtle, Argonaut, the_edski, ackvil, Dave258, maxman, ChiefBroom, AllenG, Mike H, djh and yours truly, Mr. Scruffy. Honorary members are Mystery Donor, Amishmotorboat and bosseb.
Our Story (still): We like B&B. We think that you do too. We truly enjoy our time spent here. Each of us through B&B has been afforded a wonderful source of information, inspiration, support, camaraderie and general good fun in our respective pursuit of shaving happiness and all things of a gentlemanly nature. Because of this forum and those who participate here we have transitioned from lethargic, face scraping automatons to well educated, well informed and contented wetshavers. Straights or DE’s, soaps or creams, badger or boar, regardless of your chosen setup this board has helped guide you through the process of finding what works for you. You have adopted the B&B mantra, “YMMV”.
And the additions over the last two years of new forums and subforums such as The Nib, The SE Forum, The Shooting Sports and Firearms Forum and The Brown Leaf have reflected our members' desire to expand our areas of interest as we pursue the more gentlemanly aspects of life.
Continuing the task we have assigned ourselves to assist in assuring the financial viability of Badger and Blade we have assembled a grab bag of goodies from our personal stashes to entice and reward B&B members who support this community with their hard earned coin. We don’t have a specific purpose for this fund drive other than to show support for the forum. We will leave it up to Joel and Nick to determine the best uses for the funds we raise here.
