ok...so who's in? sounds like there's quite a few bearded obnish running around out there.

how do we want to do this? post your mug here and get ranked by the Ob's? should we give it a bit so people that want to join in have time to grow?

Either as is OR have all the contestants start clean shaven on the same day and go for a period of time. Those with beards already have an unfair advantage in any other scenario.

...or both. And I'm out.

let's see how the response is to this, and maybe just have all the bearded ob's post their mugs by next week or something?

Yeah, that guy could probably do a passable imitation of me..or at least cause serious problems around here if he started a crime spree.

I am beard less for the forseeable future. FEMGAR no likey, and, while I don't REALLY care, it does looka bit less professional when meeting with people for massive sums of money. They don't wann just hand it over to some billy.

Yeah, the Senator is one of those people who pulls off the beard nicely. I don't think the future-ex Mrs LooGAR likes it though so i wouldnt expect to see it EVER again.

That boy is more whipped than a runaway slave.

There is no way in hell I'm going back to clean shaven. I say give it a couple weeks or more if there is interest from the babyfaces out there.

I grew a beard in the fall and the fucker came in grey. At a party a female acquaintance approached me with the greeting "hey, who's the old guy?"

I'm out.

I'd be at the end of the line, no matter how long the line was. Can't do a beard, never could.

Mine's been posted...I could cross-post though. Hrm, I'm not shaving mine anytime soon. Not until 06 at the very least, or I have a job interview. As long as my current job is cool with it, I'm down.
