OT: Anyone else doing Movember?
I'm letting my moustache grow for Movember, as part of the team at work, anyone else doing this, this year?

I usually let grow in the winter, been doing that for the last decade or so. Keep the UL warm during outside activities. Haven't started this years yet.

I shaved mine off so I could grow it back.

After watching an entire month of NFL players wearing pink, I've had it up to here with tokenism-for-good-causes.

Living in New England, and close to Boston, I think I've seen enough facial hair to last me awhile. GO SOX!

I actually started mine a few days before November and then my daughter told me about the Movember deal.

My upper lip had not been naked since 1977.

Facial hair, tweed and penny-farthings just seem to go together.

Not this year. Started it and saw all that white hair and thought that I look old enough already. Then my wife said she would stop shaving to follow me --- well it came off soon after.

Smogsteve, think of how much money you guys would save if both of you stopped shaving. Heck, in a couple of years you might have enuf in the bank to buy some bike bling.

When I was 52, I shaved off the beard I'd had for most of 30 years, because it was snowy white and made me look like Santa. Since then, whenever i go even one day without shaving, my wife complains about being scratched by the stubble, so, no 'Movember' for me. A month without shaving would be a month without...um...well, you know.

Are all of you going to shave and start all over for Decembeard?
