I've been trying both the Rapira Swedish Steel and Platinum Lux blades in a variety of razors over the past few weeks (I don't ever recall being this faithful before), and am mightily impressed with both these blades but especially the Platinum Lux - which I think may be an excellent fit with my PIL...

To be clear -- I was drawn to alum for its astringent properties and now use it every time I shave. Weepers or not, I like what it does after a shave, and like to leave it on after my hot water rinse, while I clean up, then rinse it off with cold water, then I go to witch hazel.

I've seen pod people at the gym with their Apple gear strapped to the arms, too big and too much money for me. Thanks for the ear bud suggestions. I was looking at my friends Creative Zen X-fi earlier today but it has been replaced by the X-fi2 (?) which has a supposedly cranky touch screen. A shuf...
