Hello, I've been wet shaving ever since I was about 20 or so... My father purchased me an electric razor, which is what he uses when I first started to grow a beard

.. Of course that just led to too much irritation and left over hairs on my neck.  So I began using the free Gillette Mach 3 which arrived in the mail. No more left over hairs, but still irritation.  That's when I starting doing my research and found all of the great gear and learned how to really shave. Of course it sucked me in. I have at least 20 brushes, which for me is way too much, only god knows how much soap and the rest is a guess. It's definitely got a hold of me now, but in a good way.. Ha ha... But never a hair is left on my face and No irritation. I mean that's what I was after in the start. Alright nice to meet you all. Sincerely, parkdc4

Yeah t.v. Doesn't ever seem to accurately depict NJ. Well maybe some spots, but its actually pretty varied throughout. I will tell you one thing.  It's definitely crowded, and growing more so each year. I have no idea why?

I actually loved growing up in the Garden State, and still wear it as a badge of pride. My little town is right on the NE Corridor line, so I could easily take the train to college in New Brunswick and commute to Manhattan for my first job after college. Driving-free trips to NYC were frequent and a privilege. Spending long stretches of summers with my grandparents in Seaside Park was also wonderful.

As a teen, I frequented Island Beach State Park all summer Happy2
