The Beard Schedule

The beard summit was an event long ago written in the stars. It was a time of destiny, of joy and despair. It has come and gone, leaving in its wake a schedule of beards for me to wear over the next month. With no further fanfare, here are the weekly beard results...

Week 1: The Hulihee
- Simple and dignified, this fine style has kicked off the beginning of an era.

Week 2: The Modified Artist (no chin)
- By tweaking the artist, it was possible to have it follow the Hulihee

Week 3: The Recession (artist's rendering pending)
- A style wholly created by the committee, it looks like the stockmarket downturn drawn across my face in beard form.

Week 4: Mustache Week (Half-handlebar/the Chevron/the GG)
- Instead of ending on one style, the committee decided to go out with a bang and try several different mustaches for the final week.

You'll notice that the 2 favorites managed to make the schedule in some form. There was also quite a call for asymmetry from yesterdays crowd and I managed to control some of that damage. Still, you'll notice the recession. That week will certainly be the most difficult one to get through. To be honest, I'm not sure I have the iron will to keep the style for a full 7 days but I'll make a solid effort to abide by the decisions of the committee.

Thanks all for voting, keep checking back for daily pictures and commentary of beard shenanigans. See you tomorrow!

Just kidding.

There's no way I can end this post with anything except a picture of me with a Hulihee.

Day 1: The Hulihee

There were precious few comments made about the beard today. The most notable was from a co-worker: "You look like you should have a Miller High Life in your hand and a cigarette in your mouth at all times."
