The day I retire, will be the last day I ever shave my entire face. I will keep it trimmed and neat but no more full shaving. I've been whacking hair off my face for over 40 years and I am sick and tired of it. Winter time it will be a full beard, summer will be a goatee. The Stash will always be with me.

How is this for those of you that like hair. First one at thanksgiving, where I did most of the cooking, the other at christmas when we went on the cruise. The hat was for the rain that was falling pretty hard, and I had four turkeys cooking outdoors.
There, now those of you with dart boards have a new target.

d | Nice DB, I think you guys should start a thread with mustache/beard pictures. We all could pick which ones we like the best.

I went back and looked, can we have just a regular beard, I'm not looking for the political connotations of Osama. I don't want to convey the wrong message.

Cannot wait to get moved to inside 22.3 and let it all go. Shaving and showering daily prior to work is called metrosexual.  | |

There is no rule against beards, you are allowed to grow one every weekend.
