Saturday, April 09, 2005 AD Important Events of the Day Today is the Idaho Beard and Moustache Championships in Ketcham, Idaho. Here are some photos from the 2003 World Championships. (This guy's my favorite. I like the whole seamless hair/beard mane thing he's got going on.) While I am personally in favor of facial hirsuteness (on men, that is...I need to keep a pair of tweezers handy for battling feminine facial follicular freakishness), somehow being fussy and vainly competitive about it seems contrary to the masculinity it represents. It seems to me that real men would have better things to do than participate in pogonic pageantry. Of course if I lived in the neighborhood of Ketcham, I'd still be tempted to attend the day's festivities! Posted by Valerie (Kyriosity) at 4/09/2005 10:20:00 AM
