Hey, where do y'all stand on moustaches? I've been giving this matter serious thought and as far as I'm concerned (at least in my part of the world) adventurous and unique facial hair is sadly lacking. Whether it's an nineteenth century cookie duster or a Rhett Butler, there's just a not enough facial hair manicuring going on in this age of electric razors and "just out of bed" looks. Beards are a separate matter entirely, so please don't sully this thread with your beardie anecdotes. In your heart of hearts you all know as well as I it takes a lot more gonads to sport a swanky moustache.

For those inclined to defer knowledge to higher sources here's some encyclopedic info on the matter.

And for those keen to keep abreast of the cutting-edge facial hair scene check out these photos from the 2003 Beard and Moustache contest (having trouble finding more recent ones)

For a fun moustache game check out the Sparks website:

Goodness, this all sounds incredibly together and sober of me, god knows it isn't... but then I do have a tendency to become an insufferable and quite factual bore when I've have a few too many.
