What's new

Have I arrived now? Or am I still on my way?

I've been a member of of this forum since April of this year, and this is post #1,000 for me. I'm not sure what that means, but here I am.

Its been a very interesting 7 months, and even though I'd been wet shaving for 2 or 3 months before I became a member here, my shaves really didn't improve until I became a member.

I guess I asked all the usual dumb questions when I first started, made the silly newbie mistakes, and probably made a fool of myself many times over. Time did pass, I learned, got better, technique improved and so did the shaves.

I bought lots of gear and tried many things. Some I really liked and some I couldn't stand. I got rid of some things through the B/S/T, and have my gear narrowed down to things I'm very comfortable with and enjoy using.

Through the time I've been a member here I've followed this forum closely, and have tried to be a regular poster. I've been privileged to receive help with problems I've encountered, from some very caring and knowledgeable members who took the time to explain what I was doing wrong, and offer ways to correct the problem. All done in a helpful manner without me being made to feel like an idiot.

This forum is a great place, a place where one can really get into this hobby of shaving. I thank those who created this forum, and the wonderful members that I've had contact with.

I don't mean to ramble on, but I guess I did. Thanks again, and here we go, on to 2,000. :biggrin: :tongue: :001_rolle

Regards,

Paul :thumbup1:

I don't care what people say, rock and roll is here to stay. :a5:
 
Congrats, Paul, from one who is still getting his brush wet, as it were. You dropped two great musical references, as well, intentionally or not:

"My my, hey hey
Rock & Roll is here to stay"
--Neil Young

"Ramble on
Now's the time, the time is now,
Sing my song
I'm goin' round the world, I'm gonna find my girl..."
--Led Zeppelin

Thanks for the mention, I don't want to age myself but the only musical reference I was thinking about was the one from Danny and the Jrs., "rock and roll is here to stay", from 1958. :001_tt2: :thumbup: :clap:
 
1000 posts since April:eek: I have been here since last Nov, of course I did share my posts until recently with SRP. But truthfully, I THINK THAT YOU STOLE SOME OF MY POSTS:wink:
