After reading that thread people say a blade on a safety razor is worth 5 shaves? Fuck I get double that from a Mach3...

The R stands for exactly what you think it does.

I have to use 2 separate razors to shave. I use a Mach3 (i think) to do my cheeks and neck and then I use a Gillette Sensor Excel (or something like that) to properly carve out my goatee. The heads of other blades are to big/wide/tall to do the job well. The second blade also needs to be nice and sharp.

After reading that article, I'm going to give the DE a shot. Anything is better then the shit I'm using now..
Never tried a barber shave before, but would love to.

Two thing that I've always wanted to try are:
1) Get shaved by someone else (a pro) at like a barber shop or something
2) Use a single blade / straight edge
Anyone ever tried either?
at the old-guy-and-son owned barber shop i useto go to, i would get a shave. it was crazy smooth, no irriation, diden't hurt, nothing. however they sold the shop, and the new owner was too cheap to hire anyone else so they had this one dirka dirka habbi habbi working there, so naturally he had 100% of the customers. he had a line up and was rushing things and asked for a shave and holy shit, it felt like he was pealing the skin off of my face! by the end of it, i had irriation, bleeding, and he put on the after shave, took the towel and started faning my face because it felt like it was on fire! worse shave evAr; so it definatly depends on who's doing it.
but good luck trying to find a barber who will shave now, aparantly they don't anymore because it wasen't hygenic and it's illegal to do them now, but i'm sure some old skool places still do it.
now i take a shower first, put on some nice and hot water and soak my face then shave after with a gel shaving creme and a shick quattro(sp?).

Never got my face shaved with the single blade, warm shaving cream, and hot towel, but plan on getting it done on my wedding day. My old barber use to use the single blade and shave the back of his clients neck, and give a nice straight cut for side burns and hair line by your neck...loved the feeling. 
Funny, cause not long ago we had this conversation at work and some of the guys were saying they had it done on their wedding day, along with their groomsmen...thought I might give it a shot as well.
