Last Thursday, I guest-lectured at Temple University's School of Nursing, where I teach clinical as a part-time adjunct professor. Since I'm a currently practicing ER nurse, I had been asked to lecture to the students on emergency and disaster nursing. These included bioterrorism, which of course begets a discussion of anthrax. My anthrax PowerPoint slide had the anthrax-horsehair connection information, including the history. My lead to track that story down came from luvmysuper, whom I referenced at the end of my lecture.
Unfortunately, while there were a number of men in this senior undergraduate nursing class, I doubt any of them really knew for what purpose one uses a shaving brush. Yes, it was obvious that none knew of the art of wet shaving; all of the men were followers of the Don Johnson 96-hour shadow school of not shaving.
Be that as it may, I would like to include two of my slides here to show you that, even though by day I am a mild-mannered emergency nurse at a great metropolitan hospital, I am a wetshaver at heart and always find ways to incorporate the topic into my daily life (and to spread the word to the shaving heathen of the world).

My Reference Slide:
Note the credit given to luvmysuper on this slide.
Growing up as the grandson of a barber, I always expect my students to shave their male patients. Those patients always tell me they feel better after a nice wet shave.
