So, I've now been working on the glory that is my 'stache for a full two weeks.

Week 1:

Week 2:

So far only two of you slackers have made donations to the Off the Street Club so you should feel shame and self-loathing until you correct that. It's a good cause. Maybe I'll make donation a requirement for voting in the post-M4K-facial-hair decisions. That'll teach you.

Next week, for the first time since my Junior year of college, I'll will be clean-shaven. Why would I do such a thing? In November? In Chicago? For a good cause of course!

That's right, I'm going to be growing a Mustache for Kids! Over the next month, I will shave, and then grow a mustache. I will take pictures of myself clean-shaven, and on the way to mustache glory. Then, in mid-December, I will display my mustachioed visage upon the intertubes. And there will be much rejoicing. Right up till TBWITWW makes me shave and start over on the beard.

How does this help kids? Well, that's where you come in. You can pledge a donation to encourage the mustache-y goodness, and I will do my best to keep you entertained with my mustachosity. All money donated will benefit the Off the Street Club, a group that provides a place for kids to go to get away from guns, drugs and violence. It's a worthy cause, and fun too!

If you'd like to pledge, send me an e-mail at This Address.
