Mo-vember 2008

It's Mo-vember again. The month formerly known as November when men all over the world (but mostly Australia) grow silly facial hair for giggles. And charity. It's changing the face of men's health, don'tchaknow. (Apparently this year it's doing something about depression at the same time.)

Nobody in Britain knew what I was on about when I became a Mo'Bro three years ago, but times have changed. I've noticed a British disbeliever form his own team this year.

Check out my MoSpace page to track my progress, and be the first to sponsor me.

Movember results


Porn-star vogue pose
Originally uploaded by Squirk.

When I announced my Movember participation, it seems that people wanted to see photos. Remember, my goal was to grow a moustache like a porn star from the 1970s. Something like the UN ambassador for the USA, the controversial John Bolton.

I shaved at the beginning of the month for my job interview, but most of my co-workers saw me for the first time looking like a reject from Thugsville, Illinois. The furry lip-caterpillar has gone now, but I had to consider first impressions. Cough.

This is not the first time I've been seen sporting silly facial hair, though, so you might find other people's Movember photos more exciting than those of my own movember pornstache.


Updated 24 Dec: Bob has posted his own Mo-vember results. I particularly like The Hitler.

Mo-vember

I have just been informed by a reliable source that this month is Mo-vember. This means that every man should aim to grow a 70's pornstar moustache by the last day of the month.
