Alright, a little bit about me...

    [li]I'm 39, married, and have three stepchildren ages 23, 21, and 19[/li]
    [li]We live in northern Virginia about 30 minutes outside of D.C. (60 minutes if it's rush hour)[/li]
    [li]I'm a mechanical engineer by education but about 7 years ago I got tired of working for other people so I taught myself to become a copywriter (ad writer) and went into business for myself[/li]
    [li]Besides straight shaving and restoring razors, I also enjoy riding motorcycles (just got the wife her first motorcycle - we'll see how that goes) and barbecuing[/li]

Thanks for posting Oldengaerde.
There's a fair chance that I have shaved myself on the banks of that same river.:)
Did you get the chance to pay Ardennes a visit?

You've put this link in your post:

The syntax is correct, but the picture you linked to sits on the C:\ drive of your computer at home. That won't work. You need to link to a picture that's already present on the Internet. Only on the "MarketPlace" and "Coticule Tavern" section of Coticule.be, you can actually upload pictures to our server.
If you could upload the picture to a free website such as Photobucket, you can link it in between the IMG tags, and it would show up in your post.

Kind regards,
Bart.
