| beards, Brighton, celibacy, championship, contest, facial hair, Germany, UK, USA
Some girls like guys with beards, like my wife thank God. But When you hear a girl say that they like a guy with a beard they usually are not talking about the guys that gathered at Brighton in the UK for the recent World Beard and Moustache Championship. Either these guys were married before deciding to imitate General Ambrose Burnsides or Chester A. Arthur, or they have taken up celibacy full time. Hey, I got nothing but respect for my bearded brethren, especially after keeping the beard completely untrimmed during the 18-1 season of the New England Patriots- those things get real itchy. Not to mention that with my dirty Belichick hoddie on I was starting to look like Rasputin.
To anyone that has spent some time in Bavaria guzzling lager, it's no surprise that those "evil" Germans are the world champs. You can see guys that look like past competitors in the local Brauhaus - this isn't some special event for them, they look like this everyday. Ah but my fellow hairy Americans are closing the gap and it's only a matter of time before some Ham Radio operator, computer programmer, or Civil War recreationist takes home the gold for the USA.

RYC: Thank you for stopping by and taking the time to leave a comment! I had to laugh reading your post, because I got a instant visual picture of the "rednecks" that live in my area who really have the beard thing going on. I wouldn't be surprised to see a bird come popping out of some of those beards.
