May is Beard Month

Alright, Calgary just lost. I know what you’re thinking,… it’s all your fault because you didn’t grow out your playoff beard. Well, there’s not much I can say to console you; it probably is your fault. It could be my fault, I don’t have much of a playoff beard either, but that’s because I attend BYU, where “Thou shalt not go unshaven” fits in right after “Thou shalt not kill” and right before “Thou shalt not commit adultery”…but schools out for summer. So you’re feeling like you missed your chance to grow your beard and be a part of something really great…well I have another chance for you to root on a winner. At the end of May I will take the DAT, it’s a tough test and I am going to be studying everyday until then while Stacey and Dahl hang out in Calgary. If there is one thing I am going to be doing besides studying, it’ll be admiring my own version of a playoff beard. That’s right May is officially beard month. I know there are a bunch of guys who read this blog (or at least a bunch of guys whose wife’s read this blog) and as soon as you read/hear form your wife about this, I would invite you to show your support by growing the playoff beard that would have seen Calgary through to the second round. You missed your chance once, don’t miss it again. I will be updating pictures of a nasty playoff beard over the next couple of weeks so stay tuned. I am expecting some pretty wicked beards, they might be thick or sparse, there might be light blond mustaches or thick red neck beards, patchy cheeks, and dirty staches. Come one come all. Whose in??? You know you want to comment, just say your in. This is the infamous "Earl" Halloween '06. But remember a full beard means facial hairs on upper and lower lip, on chin, on cheeks and on sideburns without a natural or shaved gap. That's from the beard judging website...those guys are serious.

Aaron, you are SO funny. I don't think I will tell Steve about it. The guy can grow a beard better than anybody I know, by the time one wee goes by he will have grown what most people can grow in a month, I don't know if I could handle a whole month like that!!

Wicked! Good luck with the beard....if my facial hair didn't make me look like a homeless person I would join you.

Too bad I am pretty much expecting the entire staff of Bearspaw insurance to join me on this one....regardless of homeless man syndrome.
