Fine, Gillette, you win.

Your years of bombast have vanquished me. A man can only take so many square-jaw close-ups and exploding jet fighters. Your CGI budget was well-spent, sirs, and I look forward to a close shave that only seven vibrating, lemon-scented blades can provide.

I thank you.

4. See how it works on that little space between your nose and your upper lip.

Y'know, the little indentation where the fairy placed a finger to silence you from explaining the truth about where you came from?

My husband has only been able to be successful with a two-blade razor in that space. Anything else cuts his nose or his lip. The fairy must have screwed up.

5. eh

I put a brand new set of blades on my fusion- with vibrator, and I got as clean a shave I do when I go against the grain, without having to go against it.

Amazing razor.

6. Expanding on your theory, here's a post from www.superbowl.com:

(Feb. 1, 2006) -- The five-blade computer-chip-enabled Gillette Fusion razor is about to land in stores. Claudia Deutsch of the New York Times warns to brace for an advertising blitz -- Fusion ads will run during the Super Bowl, on Lost and 24, in the Sports Illustrated swimsuit issue. Hers was the second New York Times article in a week devoted to the advent of the five-blade razor -- hey Multicolored Lady, TMQ was years ahead of this story! Bill Sonneville of Rochester, N.Y., reports the Fusion actually has six blades -- five on the front plus a sixth on the back for mustache trimming. This activates TMQ's Law of Razors, which has reliably predicted razor marketing trends so far. The law holds that the number of blades will increase to the factorial of the highest number of blades in the previous century. Since there is now a six-bladed razor, in the 22nd century there will be a razor with 720 blades, as 720 is the factorial of six (6x5x4x3x2x1). Meanwhile, my latest nickname for the place the Patriots play -- which this column now calls Next One Will Have Six Moisture-Sensitive Vibrating Blades with Remote Control, Make Coffee, Walk the Dog, Receive High-Resolution GPS and Improve Your Love Life Field -- must be reassessed. It becomes Next One Will Have Seven Moisture-Sensitive Vibrating Heated Titanium Blades, Make Espresso, Raise Llamas, Monitor Atmospheric Pressure on the Moons of Meepzor, Improve Your Love Life and Play a Constructive Role in the Middle East Peace Process Field. My name for the stadium can't get any longer because now it is 251 characters, right up against the Word limit of 255 for an automatic entry.
