Should I publish it here?
What do you say Doc?

 Date Joined Apr 2003 Total Posts : 2457 | Posted 7/12/2003 2:31 PM (GMT -6) |   | I grew an amish beard in my third year in college. It came out quite full and grew quite long and red, which is in contrast to my brown hair.
Finally, towards the end of the year, I had some friends who cared enough about me to tell me that if I wanted to date that it would be a good idea to shave it off.
After I shaved it off I got numerous compliments, so much that I felt like growing a beard back so I could shave it off again( and get the compliments again), but there were a number of middle-aged married male professors, including Greg Boyd, who bemoaned the loss of my beard.
So since then for my grad-school days I adopted the beard-without-a-beard-look, where most of the time I kept it low and thin so people could ignore the beard if it so fit them. That is except for when I grew it out so I could impersonate Abraham Lincoln for Halloween.
check out the new signatures... dlw

I thought Greg said, so long as he is "stunningly handsome."

BTW, Doc are you going to be speaking this sunday at woodland hills? i may be in the twin cities and would like to check out your church. give me a shout.

Esther: Poor little walls, It's a shame you have to be here and hear the language that comes out of this man's mouth. Fred: Poor little wall, you outta be glad you ain't got no eyes to see who's talking to you.
Lamont: Pop, you've gotta quit insulting everybody! These are your friends and they love you! Esther: Yeah. I coulda called you a "fish-eyed fool", but I didn't! Fred: And I could've called you a fat-back, monkey-faced gorrilla, But I DIDN't....but I WILL, you fat-back, monkey-faced ape!!

Most women I know absolutely abhor mustaches, yet men continually insist upon growing the hideous things on themselves. Only a very teeny, tiny, miniscule fraction of the world's population of men look only very slightly, somewhat attractive with mustaches. So, single men who want to get married shouldn't even take the chance of growing one. And married men should submit to their wives if their wives hate mustaches, too. After all, their wives are the ones who have to look at them and enjoy what they see. If the mustache prevents them from enjoying what they see, the men should do what they can to please their wives and shave the mustache off. Am I making myself fairly clear?
Some men look better with goatees, but not mustaches by themselves. Beards are generally unliked by most women as well. But, again, it depends on the man wearing it.
Now, I don't want to hear any whining and complaining from you men out there about, "Ohhhh, it's just such a painful hassle to have to shave my poor, soft, sensitive, beautiful face!" After all, we women have to shave our legs AND our underarms almost every day just to be accepted in society as normal and attractive. That takes twice as long to do, and causes razor burn and nicks all over the place! Do you know how much of a hassle THAT is?!
I know a guy who says it should be a stipulation in the marriage covenant that the wife must shave her legs. I could have just bopped him upside the head when he said that! GGGGRRRRRRRRRRR!!!!!!!!!!

I had a mustache when I was younger (ages 2 - 7), but one day I looked at a picture of me with that droppy looking thing under my nose and shaved it off.
Yes, shave yer legs and under yer arms and we'll shave our faces.

Doc: Yes, that's exactly why I grew it. You know, I had to deter all those lustful eyes looking my direction.
Now, there's no mustache... just that sexy grubby look. I don't worry about detering anymore.

Why do I suddenly feel like breaking out in a chorus of "Welcome Back Kotter?"
