The Onion wrote an article in 2004 about gillettes' then top of the line three blade Mach 3, and the absurdity of possibly going to five. Now, just shy of three years later, the world appears to be ready. Gillette Fusion is here with the mind-boggling five blade razor... Five. Is it feasible to go even higher in the future, or will they introduce a retro model in another three years? Time will tell, I can't make any predictions, but I'm absolutely impressed by Gillettes determination in flogging new models to all men. They haven't even got any serious competition, which means their only threat is the previous model.

I bow to greatness.
