... ..activation ....February 12, 2006   Every decade, I forget that electric razors don't work.  It's not that I forget, really.  I just suffer from periodic breakthrough optimism.  I learn about the latest stubble-cutting technology every holiday season and, every tenth Christmas, I bite.  That's why I shaved with a Braun Activator this morning.  I was sold by the jaunty angle at which the razor sits in its docking station, a unit that senses the level of cleaning and charging the razor needs between uses.  The station senses and provides.  Just like me. After shaving, I shower and wash my hair with a volumizing shampoo.  Having been activated and volumized, I use even strokes to apply a deodorant that is body-heat activated.  I'm all about activation.  I should charge an activation fee to anyone who comes near me. I'm still hot-shower clammy, towel around my waist, when I pick up the Danelectro and rip through Petty's Honey Bee.  Now I put the guitar down, de-activate the amp, and get dressed like a big boy.  previous..|..current..|..archives..|..1st quarter index..|..next
