Adventures In Facial Hair


I’ve decided to grow a goatee. Yes, for the first time in my entire life, I am attempting facial hair. And no, the picture above is not me.

I guess I figured I might as well go ahead and embrace my inner “bear”. I’m already big as a house (a very LARGE house), so I figured I might as well grow the goatee and make it official. Bears are very “in” these days. I just hope the Papis aren’t afraid of us. Note to the Papis: Please Feed The Bears! :)

The only problem is, I have absolutely NO idea how to grow anything on my face. I am 40 years old, and the only mustache I’ve ever had was of the “Kool Aid” variety. I have very light hair (reddish-blond), so the growth so far is not very noticeable. Furthermore, it seems that my stubble is either DARK red, or…GASP…completely WHITE (gray)!

This ought to be interesting…
