Cigars and Beards

[Kdot]

This might seem like a dumb thread and a bit "out there" but it's something that crossed my mind today.

Is there a link between smoking cigars and keeping a beard (of some sort)? I looked at my group of friends and the ones that smoke cigars sport some sort of facial hair...from designer stuble to a full out santa beard.

I tend to grow a beard in winter, think of it like my winter fur...so who on here keeps a beard and what for?

I keep a full beard for when I can't be bothered to shave!!! I used to have a goatee, I keep meaning to grow a mean/masculine tasche but i forget when i shave in the mornings lol

I look like the satanic spawn of D'Artagnon and Rolf Harris. The main purpose being it repulses people! lol Nowt wrong with that!

I've had beards various over the years. My current goatee unit I grew last November for Charriddy (But I really don't like to talk about it)

Now if we are talking about a competition how about Deano putting up a couple of good stogies out of funds and everyone signing up for the Movember Charity: http://www.movember.com/, it raises money for men's cancer charity .

So how about it Deano? Person who raises most money get's the stogies??

It's a great web site, it's possible to create a group to see who has had the most sponsorship pledged and if you get over a certain amount of money you get to go to a party in central London.

I plan to shave off my current unit at the end of September to have a clean October and start again in Movember.

Who'se going to join me (or even better pledge me your support/sponsorship)!!

Awesome, sounds like the good old RN tradition of beard growing competitions when at sea.

lol.... the singer in my band (a gay fella.... homosexual you understand... not happy) calls me Manny Lennox!

I did some work at Dave Stewart's studio in Crouch End years back when I used to think I really was somebody. When I met him he was with Nick Cave.... not the smiliest couple of guys.... actually scratch that, they were bloody miserable. Should've been a firm of gothic undertakers.

"Stewart and Cave's. You stab'em, we slab'em"!

Butch? You and I could be the sixth and seventh members of the Village People! I always thought they needed an all in american wrestler and interior designer characters. I'm not saying which of us, in my little mind, is which!
