Life is too short for wet shaving

[rbscebu]

I have:

• 5 different strops
• 7 different soaps/creams
• 5 different brushes
• 1 aftershave
• 5 different finishing stones/media
• 28 different razors
• 2 different M7DSs

That gives me 49,000 possible different combinations to try. At one shave per day, it will take me 134 years and 57 days.

I guess you better get at it then!

 

[NorthernSoul]

Good old factorial! That's quite a combination...

Stay strong, stay healthy, move back to shaving in the morning and at vespers. You’ve got this, Rob

When the Roman emperor Diocletian retired around 303 he returned to his estate across the Adriatic in Illyrium (present day Croatia). One day he was walking with his horticulturalist and explaining what plants, trees, fruits, flowers, and shrubs he wanted planted and where he wanted them planted. He said that he wanted a long line of date palm tress planted along a path on the estate. The expert protested, reminding Diocletian that it takes 8-10 years for a new date palm tree to begin producing fruit.

"Well in that case you'd better get them in the ground before lunch," the emperor replied.

That's awesome! Just revel in the joy of variety and possibilities. I know I do.

Yeah, the only 7 soaps baffles me too. Just in my house, not the storage unit, I have 28 different soaps. That also does not include the ones I make. I'd be happy to send you a few Richard just in case you should live beyond your 134 years. I'm not sure it'll be shelf stable that long.

Simple, just start shaving other people...

…combined with different body parts. I see another factorial on its way…

Ol' @rbscebu has already been there and got the t shirt!

First, you need to increase your daily exercise routine. I'm thinking 2 hours a day should be sufficient if your effort output is near maximum.

Now for your diet . . .

Reminds me of the story about Napoleon’s oak trees

Reminds me of the story about Napoleon’s oak trees

The best time to plant a tree was 20 years ago.
The second best time is today.

Or so I've heard it said.

When you're typing, you're not shaving. Quit slacking off!

The version I remember was he was talking to an aide (or someone on his staff) about wanting plant oaks along the side of the roads so his troops could march under their shade. The aide objected saying that it would take a least 20 years before the trees were tall enough. Napoleon replied that then they should start planting them immediately

I get 56,000.
