You'd think that we've become unable to hear the truth in a children's cartoon or something...

Sadly, that seems to be truth  :Wizard:.  On the other hand, it's easy to laugh at such  :eusa_boohoo:

Been using a Plantronics bluetooth earbud headset for last few years ... came with Dragon, but don't recall version - ten (10) or eleven (11), probably.  Works well for me 'cause I tend to wander when talking - seems that moving my legs stimulates by thinking (?) processes.  Near as I can make out, it's either N10887 or BO18482.  Works well, as long as I keep it charged, and I can answer the front door  :-\ and still keep my dictation working  :huh:.

Edit.
It's a boom earpiece/mike, not a headset.

That boy is one of the funniest every time he opens his mouth. I wonder if he ever listens to what he says.
Prolly not.  Then he'd have to show/demonstrate recognition of what he just said  :P.  I'm not particularly anti-Kerry, but I do get a lot of laughs of his public statements  :P :P :P.

I tried looking, but I couldn't find any new ones, and I'm guessing that antique ones won't be useful due to the leather being too old & unmaintained. But, I'll keep looking.

Every time I change blades, I keep thinking of straight razors and stropping them, and wondering why I'm wasting a blade that can perfectly well be sharpened to use again. It seems wasteful. God knows a "dull" razor blade is still incredibly sharp.

Renegade, when I was using double-edged blades - Gillete, Shick - it was common practice to strop the blade against a bathroom mirror.  That realigned the edges, smoothing out the parts that had been realigned/misaligned by the act of shaving.  Dunno that might help ya, but it's worth a try.  Saved me a great deal of discomfort when I couldn't afford a new blade every day.
