I was drafting a post about Cheney, quail, and Libby, and how I think the accident has a feeling and smell of a stunt. (Did they talk Harry into playing along? If so, did he agree, because they had something on him?)
But, alas, I have other concerns.
For example, how many blades does one razor need?
In the 80's I learned that for the closest shave you needed two: one to gently pull up the hair and the other to cut.
It's 2006, and I feel like I've been lied to, and I'm confused. I'm now told that one needs a 5 bladed-razor for the closest, smoothest shave! What do the other 3 blades do, besides increasing the nick risk?

Whoa. I was just on Google to pull up an image of the new 5-bladed wonder. Instead, I found an article that leads me to believe there may be a copyright issue concerning this razor. The Onion came up with the idea first. In February 2004.
Tom Bozzo has been saying it all along, and I have to agree. The Onion is a National Treasure.
