Title: How far would you go?
Post by: slyinglide on September 04, 2008, 04:33:42 PM
I want to know how dedicated you Sly Guys are to being Sly...........How far would you go to stay sly?

For example.....A couple of years ago I was unemployed for about a year and low, very low on money.  I could not even afford to purchase razor blades.  I I went as far as getting some 1200 grit sand paper and trying to resharpen the blades by hand. I even bought a straight razor for 3 bucks at a garage sale.  Thank God I didn't have to use it.  I started another job and everything was Okey Dokey.   How far would you go?

If I had to, I would use Mrs. BW's Remington elecric shaver! :-[

And a lot of witch hazel! :)

I would stand at a busy intersection with a tattered cardboard sign that read "Will Work for Razor Blades".....

When you said 1200 grit sand paper, I thought oh no he didn't!  Thankfully I kept reading and found out you were sharpening blades and not sanding your head.

well here is my plan.  I have to go to Haiti...and we dont have hot or even warm water.  COLD SHOWERS MEANS A COLD HEAD SHAVE.  I am gonna give it one hell of a try though.  Even if i have to heat water by a match light.

You can buy a portable shower kit which holds about 5 gallons of H2O.  You fill it, hang it in the sun, and have hot water.  Check some place like LL Bean, REI or Dick's.

We tent camped for 10 yrs.  Now we have a travel trailer.  A/C, hot water....whole deal.  We still spend a lot of time outside.  Mainly we sleep in it and use it for shelter if it rains.

If I wanted to stay inside and watch TV, I would stay home.
