I recently decided that it was time to shave the beard.  I had grown it out for a month or so (maybe less, I lost track) and it was just getting unmanageable.  One of the things I love about having facial hair to start with is all the combinations that you can create.  I tried to create several, but will end up with ol' trusty... just the soul patch.

at work celebrating Guy Fawkes day

 

Today is Guy Fawkes Night.  I'm fairly new to the holiday but love the movie V for Vendetta which is tied into the Guy Fawkes story.  I was looking for a good reason to shave my beard and figured this was good enough.  I'm dressed up at work and feel a little silly but I guess that's life.

 

As the limerick goes:

Remember, remember the Fifth of November,The Gunpowder Treason and Plot,I can think of no reasonWhy the Gunpowder TreasonShould ever be forgot.
