I have always thought that razor blades were quite expensive, I buy the three blade type. I am raising my hand (my wife Julie and I have a rule, if you are going to change the subject you have to raise your hand), Moore's law observes that computer chips double in power every 18 months. I don't know how long it took to go to from two blades to three. I am guessing 15 blades by the end of the century. Back to the original story. Razor blades are expensive. I could never figure out why, because typically men's hygiene stuff is usually not as expensive as women's. Why because men will do without before we shell out a lot of money for naught. Then one day I kissed my wife with a couple of day's growth and she said you need to shave. Eureka men will pay a lot of money because we all know men will do what it takes to be with a beautiful woman (Julie is hot). So I set out on the quest to be the envy of all men the lesser expensive razor blades. I searched everywhere except EBay, which is the first place I should have checked. Low and behold, I found my favorite blades for less than 2/3rds (including shipping) what I normally pay. I now have the best of both worlds, not paying through the nose and pleasing a beautiful woman. I realize that makes me some kind of hero with men. Today they arrived 50 packs of 4 Gillette's Mach 3 Turbo. How cool is that?

I don't get your point? It is also a generalization.
