By Fred Steiner
In 2015 I resolved to succeed with a manly plan. Thought it would be like riding a bike. It wasn’t. 
 
While watching “Skyfall,” I saw Miss Moneypenny shave James Bond with a straight edge razor. You probably didn’t notice. I did.
 
If Moneypenny could do it so could I. It looked…manly.
 
My grandfather and his before him used one.  They were manly.
