Title: Greetings from San Diego
Post by: Roger on December 10, 2013, 10:16:25 PM
Howdy, the name's actually Roger.  I'm newly sly as of this past weekend.  I've kept my hair short ever since I got out of the Navy in the early 90's, switching between a flat top and a full buzz.  Now I've got this asymmetrical balding pattern going on that kinda looks like Fire Marshal Bill (you can Google it) so this weekend I finally decided to go slick.  I ordered a Skull Shaver and after trying that out a couple of times I drove up to the Rite Aid and purchased a HeadbladeATX and some Head Slick. 

I've been carbon polluting on this planet for 50 years now.  Did 11 years in the Navy as a Machinist Mate (steam engineer) then got out and went to work for the County.  9 more years and 3 months until I get to retire with my gub'mint pension (not that I'm counting).

Now, I just gotta go and find out what non-Headbladecartridges (if any) will work with the ATX  without an adapter.

Welcome, Roger.

The Fire Marshal Bill reference cracked me up.  I was an In Living Color fan...   Jim Carrey was at his best.   lol.

Welcome!

Thanks.  Hey, maybe you can help me.  (or maybe you can't but I guess that depends)

How the heck am I supposed to pick a team in the BPL?  I'm 100% yankee and have never set foot on the green of England and I've never met with a British lass to help sway my decision so I'm in a quandry.   :/O

Thanks for the welcome!  I'll try not to get myself banned.  I got myself banned from quite a few assorted message boards in the early days of messageboards.   Every now and then I have a relapse. :px

Yes, Roger, thank you for your service, and congratulations on going sly.  No dirty words so far, so you seem to be doing okay!
