A Sad Goodbye To Our Beards

Movember / No Shave November is drawing to a close. I would like to thank all my friends and colleagues who joined me on this journey. As we bid adieu to our spectacular man-staches it is not without a bit of trepidation.

It is the fear of the unknown.

Since we last shaved, the world around us has changed.

For instance, thirty days ago, consider:

- Halloween had just ended, now we look past Thanksgiving and on towards Christmas.

- The average temperature has fallen from 78 degrees to 72 degrees in Tampa.

- When we started, Mitt Romney looked to be the next President of the United States.

- Hurricane Sandy had just made landfall the day or so before, kicking off more than $42 billion in damage to New York alone.

A lot has changed.  We must cope.  We must adapt.  We must be brave my mustachioed brethren.

A look at our beards... one last time:

As we struggle to cope with being lame, normal, unbearded folk, I leave you with the video on how to kill a mustache:
