Grow them long, wear them proud, and for God's sake keep them waxed!

Well its September again and that can only mean one thing - its time to spend a month celebrating your manliness with a bunch of friends, a few strangers, lots of cops, Wilford Brimley and the rest of the mustache loving world.

Everybody is welcome to participate in Mustache Month and even to post comments. Both can be done without getting permission from me. If you want to post an article or be listed on the side under "Proud Participants & Fans" you'll need for me to add you.

WARNING: While growing a mustache will provide you with instant machismo and camaraderie with the 46 other guys with mustaches, its not without risks. The sudden apprearance of a mustache has been know to cause intense jealousy amongst "significant others" as they struggle to deal with the increased attention you'll receive as you strut proudly about with an impecably groomed upper lip accessory.

Its The Final Countdown!

The only thing that would make those big-haired, leather-clad, and hard-rocking guys from the band Europe more awesome would be mustaches. Still I think they capture the excitement of the end of Mustache Month well with the song "The Final Countdown". Hope its stuck in your head for the rest of the day.




Since September ended during the middle of the week, we voted by a resounding 6-4 margin that the celebration (often called the Mustachiebration) would be pushed until this weekend. I know for a few of us we may be extending it at least another week...if not for the rest of the year.

Anyway, since the end is near, here are your final instructions for Mustache Month:
  1. Get together with other mustachioed men to celebrate your accomplishment. If other men bold enough to grow a mustache can not be found then find men/women willing to honor you by wearing fake mustaches while you celebrate.

  2. Take picture of you and your crew celebrating your mustaches. Then either post them here or send me the photos at rarthun @hotmail.com so that you can be listed on the Mustache Month 08 Honor Roll Slide Show.

Wear them with pride these last few days, fellas! Its going to be a long year until we "get" to do this again.
