progress
It's finally happened.
The barrier has been breached.
Gillette announced today that they're upping the ante and releasing a five blade razor.

From money.cnn.com:
Some of you may remember my rant, upon purchasing the Gillette M3 Power Nitro a few months back. Talk about ADD! They just came out with that thing, and they're already sending them to the landfills?
Anyway, this is all I have to say on the topic: we've come too far too fast. Slow down with all crazy-ass extreme Mountain Dew flavors and CSI spin-offs. Is the world really ready for a five blade razor with a vibrating handle? I guess we'll soon find out. It should arrive shortly after my XBOX 360.
And, one final thought:
FIVE BLADES!
The barrier has been breached.
Gillette announced today that they're upping the ante and releasing a five blade razor.

From money.cnn.com:
"The razor, known as the Fusion, has blades spaced 30 percent closer than Gillette's current MACH3Turbo system. It also has a single blade on the back of the cartridge for shaving sideburns or trimming under the nose."
"The Fusion will also be available in a power version and features a micro-chip that regulates the voltage and blade action. Other high-tech features include a low battery indicator light and a safety switch that shuts the razor down after eight minutes of continuous operation."

WTF?
[one more final thought/prediction: next year...5 blade razors, loaded with itunes, and digital camera.]

You know, you should compile one of your mock-ups like you did for CAMPLEX, and maybe Gillette will send you a free razor... or provide free alcohol... or something (the two simultaniously probably wouldn't be a good idea, tho).
The Onion was all over this in February of last year.

That's awesome! Thanks for the link.
What I REALLY want to know is how in the world do you get to work by 9:30am if you're still blogging at 2:59am? Talk about Mountain Dew buzz! Dude, you're a rock star.

What? No WiFi? Why can't they make these thing like legos? Like, if you want more blades. SNAP 'EM ON!
Yeah, that's what's in that hole in Lost. Stacks and stacks of razors and blue jeans. Like the bunker in "Three Kings."
"You want razor my main man?"
