Hmmm--maybe sever his corpus callosum connecting his right and left brains, then only put one side of his face to sleep while the other half is awake, and use a Norelco on one side of his beard and a Gillette on the other and see which side shaves closer after 40 years? :)
Getting some anime sounds like a good idea--I'll take that as my cue to pop in that Godzilla movie I dug out before but haven't put in yet while I've been talking online! First movie is Godzilla vs. Monster Zero--which is appropos because Monster Zero is from the 10th planet in the solar system, which was just discovered in real life this week! What anime are you going to watch?
