Micro Touch Trimmer as as seen on TV

[Supra]

SWM convinced me to buy one. It is the best trimmer ever made. It cost me $10.00 at walmart. It can trim anything, I did eyebrows, nose, arms, and pubes, no razor burn waht so ever.

Awesome!!

[another shy one]

very interesting... this could be the answer to all my prayers...

[MaidenFanatic69]

yes it is supra,
I bought it a few weeks ago after seeing it on TV, its cheap, sensitive, and VERY effective. I suggest everyone to go pick one up if u have wanted one and dont have a ton of money on their hands (like me :) )

By the way, with the 10 dollars did you get also the 14 piece grooming kit? (http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=2980200193&category=11856)

[stillwantmore]

No, the "Wal Mart Special" version only comes with the trimmer and a cleaning brush with the "eyebrow attachement".

[Supra]

Me and SWM are sales reps for the micro touch. Every one you must buy one!!

I bought one a while back, and I wasn't all the impressed with it to be quite honest. Maybe my pubes are just thicker than Supra's and Still's, but that little bastard just couldn't make a dent in my hair down there.

[Supra]

This thing is freaking awesome I love it. It is the best trimmer I have ever bought.

[Supra]

This thing keeps all my Greek hair under contol, big time.

[$$$$]

ive beent hinking about buying one but didnt watn to take the time to order it. Now that i know they have it at wal-mart i probably will. I dont want to use my good razor on my pubes and ruing it so i will probably use this to trim around my shaft. Im glad you posted this thread lol

[wants9]

I'll probably get one on my next trip to WalMart, too. Supra, how close does it shave, and have you got any nicks from it?

[fallen_one23]

how close does it get, razorblade close, or could you see the littlestubs or hair, not that i'm picky about it, just out of curiosity

[Supra]

It gets razor close

[wants9]

Great, I'll definitly pick one up, then.

By the way, Supra, saw the trailer for Troy a few months ago on Apple's web site. 'twas awesome, especially the fleet shot.

[Supra]

Thanks man my family is from Greece and I love Mythology and Brad is one of my favorite actors, so basically this is going to be my favorite movie of all time. Thanks Man!

[oopapercutoo]

Hmm...I still don't believe this Micro Touch Trimmer can compare to a Mach3 razor, but if you're all happy with it then that's all that matters.

[wants9]

No sweat. I love historical epics in general, so I'm sure I'll enjoy the movie. I'm also eagerly waiting for "Hannibal" and "Alexander the Great".

[Supra]

Yep, Collin Farrel is going to play Alex, who will play hannible?

[wants9]

Vin Diesel, I believe.

[Supra]

Thats awesome!! Thanks

[wants9]

You bet

I am pretty sure I would break anything less then a chainsaw in my jungle:D

[oopapercutoo]

Vin Diesel as Hannibal? That's anything but awesome... Hannibal was from Carthage, which was located in northern Africa. People from Africa are black, my friends. Hannibal himself was pitch black if my memory serves me correct...so if they're looking to have historical accuracy with this movie they're going to need to cast an African-American actor (perhaps Denzel Washington).

[wants9]

Hannibal was from Carthage, which was located in northern Africa.

Present day Tunisia, to be specific, which is between Algeria and Libya.


People from Africa are black, my friends.

Ever seen a Tunisian? They, along with most north Africans are MUCH fairer skinned than those from sub-Saharan Africa. I'd say Diesel's skin tone is a pretty good match to their present look.


Hannibal himself was pitch black if my memory serves me correct

I somehow doubt that there are polaroids of the man floating around. To build on my above point, Carthage was settled by the Phoenicians, who were Semites from what is now Lebanon and Syria. Again, I think Diesel's look is pretty apt.

[oopapercutoo]

Every history course I've ever taken has told me that Hannibal was extremely dark complected. Of course there were no photographs to back it up, but there have been written documents found from botht hose who served under him and those with whom he waged war that confirmed this... Unless my sources are completely flawed, I still believe he was very much dark complected.

[Supra]

Brad Pitt Will be playing Achillies.

Eric Bana will be playing Hector

[another shy one]

For the historians of the time, Hannibal looked dark, but he wasn't an African American. As it was said, Carthaginians had the same roots as the Phoenicians and also modern day Palestinians.

[wants9]

Every history course I've ever taken has told me that Hannibal was extremely dark complected.

What evidence did the teachers and/or text give to back up the assertion?


Also, Supra, or another mod, if it's possible, you might want to make the history part of this thread its own thread in deep thoughts so it doesn't cloud the PE portion.

[SnakePlissken]

Vin Diesel is mixed. He has black and I think irish to him. Look on the net for a bit and you'll see what I am talking about. Officially he doesn't discuss it, but the kids he went to school with and grew up ratted him out.

[oopapercutoo]

They never really cited their sources for the statement. I just assumed that since they had obtained at least a masters in history they would know what they were talking about so I never thought to delve any deeper into the subject.

The vast majority of teachers I've had personal dealings with (especially on a collegiate level) have a very leftist political agenda, and have no reticence about using that agenda as a driving force in their profession. If one told me the sky were blue, I'd look out the window before believing it.

I bought one for 9 dollars and change at Walmart and its a peice of crap. I wouldn't recommend it, it didn't cut through my hair.

Sucks to be you, it works great for me!

[doublelongdaddy]

I'll keep my furry ass the way it is:)

[wants9]

Gandolf, how thick and coarse is your hair?

Also, to the others, what section is this in at walmart? I've got a super-center near me and walked around for a while looking for this. It wasn't by the checkout counter, either.

No but its about $6 less on Ebay without the Grooming Kit and I dont think the grooming kit is worth $6.

I guess not since he wasn't from "AMERICA". What people are trying to say is they should have someone dark-skinned play him. Colin Powell is African American, could he play him? I am pretty sure Vin Diesel is African American, at least 1/4 or 1/2.
WHo do you guys think should have played him, Dijmon Hounsou?

Thats odd. Did ya use a new battery? Supra tried using an old battery in his and it didnt work well at first. Hmm...

[wants9]

I went back to Walmart today and they had them in. I've only used it on my nose so far, but it really did clear out the forest in there.
