Mustache

Some favorite things to do and say with my new mustache:

- Sharpen knives (I really did buy a new whetstone).
- Ask women at church and on campus "Hey, how old are you?"
- Hang out at parks.
- Ask people if they want to see my van.  It has carpet.

PS The image I have of myself in my head still hasn't changed. When I stumble into the bathroom in the morning, I am first shocked, somewhat repulsed, and then amused by this facial hair thing. All women hate it (I had someone at church tell me directly it looks horrible) but all men think it's entertaining.

Update: Ben thinks I look like Clark Gable (that's what I am taking his comment to mean).  I am all over mastering this expression.

  1. I for one think it's fantastic. It could only be improved if you can master the appropriate facial expression: http://is.gd/4rq9B

  2. I think it looks good. Actually, I think it looks normal. I have lived in Oakland too long.

  5. Clark Gable you are not - sorry!

    But I like mustaches - and most facial hair - except I'm not really a fan of the goatee - or the Kung fu mustache - or whatever they call it!!

    Had the American Mustache Institute been consulted on this, we’d find it amusing. Especially as we prepare to name the winner of the Robert Goulet Memorial Mustached American of the Year at ‘Stache Bash 2009 featuring mustache and music legend John Oates (http://www.americanmustacheinstitute.org/StacheBash.aspx).

    Indeed, the Fall is a wonderful time of year for people of Mustached American descent, and demonstrating the horror of a mustache-free American -- a nation sans labia sebuculas (Latin for “lip sweater”) -- is somewhat of a crime against nature.

    Carry on.
