No Shave November or Movember?

Off Topic
1

With all the men at the 'Space who have awesome beards and 'staches, I’m surprised that no-one has mentioned whether they will be participating in No Shave November and/or Movember!

I had never really thought about the difference until earlier today, so I looked it up. There are a lot of links online that spell it out (of course ~ yay Internet! haha); but, this one was one of my favorites This article is short 'n sweet with a touch of humor and an infographic to wrap things up ~ w00t! :smile:

Through accidental inaction, I’m off to a good start on that whole “not shaving” thing.

Been waiting for the big furnace in the sky to dial it back a bit before getting back on the bicycles after a year of not riding.

No Shave November is how it all started for me (Texas A&M-Commerce circa 2008 and beyond). Beware!

Luke has an awesome head start. Gotta maintain goatee myself, can’t do a full beard.
