Sunday November 1 2009 – 7:10pm Eastern – Toronto, ON 

Alright, MOVEMBER started today.

For those that don’t know, MOVEMBER is run to raise awareness for prostate cancer.  Basically, guys grow a moustache for the month of November … raising money for charity through donations from friends and family.

Technically, you’re supposed to start November with a clean-shaven face, but I’ll be honest … This was a late invite for me to POSSIBLY join the moustache movement … so I’m  not going to shave my beard off completely.  Not after 10+ years. 

So I have one rule — that twists the unofficial rules of MOVEMBER …

For me to join MOVEMBER:  I won’t shave my beard off completely.  I will, however, shave it down to a moustache (not even a goatee — a legit MOUSTACHE only) and grow the ‘stache only for one month.  Then, when December 1st rolls around, I will start re-growing the beard.

Is that acceptable?  Would folks still donate? 

Let me know what you think.

    Eric, shaving down to just a mo looks worse than anything -old school in a bad way.

    If not going clean, leave a soul patch or a little chin bristle “sans ‘stache” cause thems the rules.

    Buck up, it’s for charity!
