Gillette Fusion: The. Best. Shave. Ever.

I just had the best shave ever. My local Acme sent me (well, "Valued customer at 123 Plum Tree Lane") a Gillette Fusion razor in a package along with some coupons. I let it sit on my sink for a week thinking, "Who in the heck would use a razor with FIVE blades + 1? What a gimmick." Wrongo.

Man, that razor actually works. Besides the fact that it's a piece of art (I snagged the pic from Gillette's website) it just really works. There's some kind of silicone pad right in front of the blades that makes the razor actually glide. Strange.

I have to say, I was some kind of skeptic. And if the Acme hadn't sent the Gillette Fusion razor along in the freebie mail I'm not sure I would have bought one (I was Schick Quattro Man). But I'm hooked. Seriously. It was the best shave ever, and that means something to a guy who shaves daily and could probably use to do it again in the evening. (Gads, I remember when I was a kid wanting to shave so badly...now, yuck.) Anyways, it's the little things, and that Fusion razor did the trick to get me going with a smile and a smooth face this morning. Now, if I didn't have a face made for radio I'd say I'm almost kissable.
