Beards

[da]

I've decided to try growing my beard out again. The last time I had a beard, I also had long hair; so, '03 or '02. I'm not sure how I'll like having a beard and short hair. I'll give it a try for the next week, though, and see what happens.

So far, it seems to be coming in darker. The last time, it looked reddish. I liked that, but I don't particularly want to become as shaggy as I did in that photo- taken in December '01. So I may be in the market for an electric trimmer.

Updates forthcoming :)

I'm very much open to suggestions- for style of beard, whether I look better without one completely, best brand of trimmer/razor, etc.

Hee hee. Fair 'nuff, though the well-known-ness about that fact may be in dispute. As they say in Wikipedia, "Lacks Sources! non-Neutral Point of View! No sock-puppets!" (OK, the last one is hardly relevant, but I like the phrase.)

I will say: my old boss looks better with a beard. Dan's dad, who has had a beard for 40 years, would undoubtedly look like a denuded chicken without it. Santa looks better with a beard. :)

Some people do look better with beards. Some don't.

I remember when you looked like that. I also remember when d. looked like a picture he posted recently (long hair). This is interesting, because, except when d. cut his hair, I don't remember the way either of you looks changing dramatically. Which says interesting things about how often I see either of you. (One of those things being, of course, Not enough!)
