Mustache Madness


**********BREAKING NEWS**********

We interrupt this regularly scheduled blogcast to bring you this breaking news: M won "best overall mustache" in the Mustache Madness 2008 competition. Way to grow facial hair, dude. You da man. And collectively they raised $1,000 for their charity, double what they raised last time around.

**********************************


This is something that started at M's old job, two or three years ago. Everyone has scattered to different companies now, but the tradition lives on. For the month of March, he and all his buddies grow beards. Then on the 31st, everyone shows up at work with just a mustache, and there's a contest with various prizes. It's actually a fundraiser for Trips for Kids -- each entrant has to pay $20, and each vote is $5. Some people go for crazy mustaches, and there are always a few fakes too (usually sported by the female entrants), but M always goes for an ordinary old, Magnum PI-style 'stache. He figures that few 30-something men go for that look, so it'll make people wonder. Oh, it makes people wonder, all right. Even he called it the "molestache." I'm happy to report that he came downstairs clean-shaven last night, now that Mustache Madness 2008 has ended.


Before: Grizzly Adams


After: Molestache
