1. I shave in the shower. No mug and brush.
I've heard that is a good way to wake up the ol' beard for a closer shave, but I've never tried it.

You know how we Latins just love a good, sharp blade.

:P

6. Haven't shaved since '89
Trimmed it all a bit once in 1998 for a wedding.

Had to evict a family of sparrows from it last year...

8. I used to
Never felt it was as close a shave, but it was enjoyable. I still have my Burma Shave soap and brush just in case I feel the tug of nostalgia again.

11. Yep. It's the only way to go.
Much more environmentally friendly than those earth-destroying cans, and more enjoyable, and a HELL OF A LOT cheaper.

And it's ritualistically wonderful and calming.

13. I use a brush sometimes, but no mug
I use stuff from a tube called Kiss My Face. I get it at London Drugs. Try it, it's great. I mostly use Foamy with a Conair Hot Lather Machine. Mmmmmmmmm. If I'm lazy or in a hurry, I use an electric.
