Hirsute or Not Hirsute

[SPS tools]

I last shaved my mustache in Aug`69 for a promotion board. Started growing it again as soon as I got that 3rd stripe.

Beards, on the other hand, have been an on again/off again thing since I got out of the service. I started growing my most recent beard last fall because of blood thinners; I kept nicking my chin & bleeding all over God's creation. I keep the handle bars, and trim the goatee so that I don't catch it when raising the chin bar of my motorcycle helmet.

Being follically challenged since my late 20s, I've sported a beard and mustache for the last 30 years. Thus, I've been in and out of style a number of times. From my perspective, there's such a thing as too much skin showing above the collar. It's nice to know I'm "IN" again.

I'm on blood thinners also, but in the spring/summer when I shave, I've gone to the darkside using an electric shaver, needs must!!!! Kit
