Beards and more beards

Fair amount of chat here on the topic, so I thought I'd share this site (may be slow to load due to recent publicity).

http://www.davemead.com/home.html, click on Portfolio.

OK, some are "just" 'staches, but they are all fairly impressive!

Very impressive. Gives me some ideas. Not so sure that my wife will like a one of them but then she's no fan of the simple beard I have now. ;)

That site is chock-full of awesome! Love it!

I gotta share this one around.

Wonderful. I'm on a beard hiatus right now, but I'm aiming for a very bearded Spring season.

Nice to note that the photographer is a UT-Austin graduate and worked at GSD&M, a very good advertising agency in Austin. These photos remind me that I really MUST do something about coiffing my own hirsute, which now just rambles hither and yon.

I wish I could grow a full beard. I am 23 and still have patches missin'. Maybe one day! Great pics though!!

A perfect wife would have to be one that likes both beards AND kilts.

I was bearded when I first met my wife-to-be and bearded at our wedding. But now that my beard is gone she doesn't want it back. I hung on to my mustache for years and years but alas, that is gone now too. Now I only get an angry look and snide comment if I go day without shaving.

At least the kilt is tolerated. I don't want to push things with, "tiny hairs growing out of my face". (but then again, someday maybe). The beard almost seems a necessary accouterment to the kilt.
