Best driver's license picture ever. Still chopped and bearded. Still dedicated.

... I find myself resisting the maddening urge to shave quite often. It seems like no matter how happy I am, I always spot little imperfections. Heh, like anybody could ever have a "perfect" whatever anyway... I am very pleased, when looking this evening and trimming, how things are turning out. I'm starting to look real "old timey"!

I'm very pleased with how things are going this time around.

My 'stache is finally joining up on the left-hand side. That's what happens to those of us who don't have decent connectors yet ... you have to improvise.

Here we are ... Another day at work.

Here's a nice shot of the new chops. They've come out much better this time, due mostly to my beard's increasing density. Yeah sure, I still look like a redneck, but that's okay, doesn't bother me as much.
Wednesday July 23 2008
Yep, I went back to the chops. I don't know what it is about them, but I started to miss them. I don't look so bad like this.
Tuesday February 19 2008
I figure, Matt looks good like this, Boofer looks good like this, Everlast does too, why not give it a try?
Tuesday February 12 2008
On to the next style ... If you look real, real close, you can see the faint traces of peach fuzz forming a chinstrap.
Tuesday February 5 2008
Here is a better pic.
Tuesday February 5 2008
I'm going to let it turn into a walrus mustache and see where that goes. I still don't have enough stubble on the sides of my chin for an extended Fu-Manchu, yet ...
Monday February 4 2008
I decided it might be fun to try out the handlebar mustache.
My goals have changed some-what. Basically, the plan is to try out pretty-much every style that I'm capable of growing, to see what fits me the best.
So, here's the handlebars ...

You can have my beard, when you shave it off my cold, dead face!
Wednesday January 30 2008
Nice day today, warm but just a bit windy.
Tuesday January 29 2008
This is Hubert. No, I didn't catch him, but he's cool, and he helps add to my new "rugged" image.
And no, I didn't trim, the light was just shining funny on my face.

... Mossy Oak looks pretty darn good with a beard!
Monday January 28 2008
Looks like somebody's got a case of the 'Mondays' ...
Friday January 25 2008
... went down to the barber shop yesterday, got the neck line cleaned up and a new crop top.
Thursday January 24 2008
I'm so thankful for Bose noise-canceling headphones and Dimmu Borgir ... it gets way too loud in here.
Wednesday January 23 2008
Our offices have been moved to a temporary location while the heating and air conditioning in our building is being worked on. That's the back of my co-worker Eric's head you see behind me. As you can tell, I can barely contain my enthusiasm for this move.

Said it's a dirty job but someone's gotta' do it...
Thursday January 17 2008
I'm having a really FUCKED UP day @ work right now.
Wednesday January 16 2008
... thought it'd be nice to take a photo outside in the sun. Notice how I'm "immune" to the ravages of near-freezing temperatures, this isn't an accident. Beards keep your face warm in the Winter.
Tuesday January 15 2008
Here's some that i took today, the neckline, the 'good side', the room for improvement ... enjoy!

Yeah ... I know ... I'm wearing the same sweater two days in a row. But hey, at least I changed my trousers and underpants ;)
Thursday January 10 2008
... on the way to work.
Wednesday January 9 2008
I'm a happy guy this morning. Why? Because my beard is back of course!
Friday January 4 2008
Feeling happier by the day.
Wednesday January 2 2008
I'm looking and feeling much better now!
Monday December 31 2007
My beard is back! In another week or two it will have filled out pretty-much to where it was before I accidentally butchered it.
Friday December 28 2007
I'm starting to feel like my old self again.
Thursday December 27 2007
Oh sure. Everybody's in favor of saving Hitler's brain, but when you put it in the body of a Great White Shark, ooh, suddenly you've gone too far.
Monday December 24 2007
Slowly surely, we're coming back. Today my face feels like suede instead of sandpaper. My thin patch on the left is filling in as well, I discovered several newly mature hairs sprouting up there. I also discovered that my hairline is receding, which most men would believe to be a major bummer but not me, as, DHT causes thinning head hair, but ironically it also promotes thicker beard growth. SWEET!!!

I decided for the sake of myself, as well as my girlfriend, who has to occasionally be seen in public with me, to shave off the mutton chops and start over. Shown is all that's left of my lovely, lovely beard ... With one poor decision and several strokes with a razor my first beard was reduced to a "jazz dot". What a bummer man, what a bummer. Let this be a lesson to you guys, there's a very, very good reason why mutton chops went out of style! I shaved down with a beard trimmer, that way I'd not be starting over from scratch. I'll be resuming my plan to grow a nice, full short boxed beard only this time, the only trimming I'll be doing is on the neck line. I will say this, I definitely like my face a lot better with a beard than without one. I'm not happy with the way I look right now at all, but I'm resting assured knowing that I'll start looking better in a week or so. My face looks like a frozen Thanksgiving turkey right now, ACK!!! I'll keep posting pictures for as long as you guys are. Notice the Kenny on the left, he is handsome, virile and confident. Then notice the Kenny on the right, he's sad, emasculated, depressed.
Thursday December 20 2007
... I'm liking this style less and less every day. I think I might have made a bit of a mistake with this one.

Ambrose Burnside, Lemmy Kilmister and countless others; and now ... Me!
Tuesday December 18 2007
I've got fops and dandy-boys in the crosshairs.
Monday December 17 2007
I got a haircut. I also trimmed up a nice neck line as well, not too shabby for a first attempt. Apparently I don't look homeless anymore.
Friday December 14 2007
We'd be fools not to ride this strange torpedo all the way out to the end!

Wednesday December 12 2007
My co-workers all agree, I look like Grounds Keeper Willie from the Simpsons.
Tuesday December 11 2007
... still just a bit patchy on the left-hand side, but it's filling in, you probably won't even be able to tell in another week or so.
So far as growing is concerned, I've been taking my vitamins, shampooing it every other day and using conditioner every day.
Plus, I've been drinking plenty of water, washing my face with a nice, mild hypo-allergenic soap every morning, and in the evening I've been massaging jojoba oil into my cheeks and chin, to keep the itch away.
Monday December 10 2007
My special lady HATES my beard.
Saturday December 8 2007
Feeling good!
Friday December 7 2007
I'm lucky my employer and the client don't have issues with beards.
Thursday December 6 2007
Here's a few from home, watching Law & Order and drinking beer.
Wednesday December 5 2007
I've grown away my beardless boy face!
Tuesday December 4 2007
I can't believe it's grown out this much already. It's been 19 days and the hair is almost a half inch long.
Monday December 3 2007
Here we are, 18 days into it!

Thursday November 29 2007
Coming along well.
Wednesday November 28 2007
So far the feed-back has been fairly positive :) Except from Erin, she visited Sweetbeard, took one look at my pictures and said "Eeeeeewwwww GROSS!!!!" but hey, at least she's honest ;)
Wednesday November 28 2007
Here's me, my beard, and Remington the pitbull.

... I do not look like a hobo!
Monday November 26 2007
My face is starting to itch real, real bad.
Wednesday November 21 2007
I'll be getting complaints from the little lady that I'm "prickly" before too much longer.
Tuesday November 20 2007
... Here's another shot of the progress so far.
Tuesday November 20 2007
I can't really tell yet how this might turn out, I have some patchy spots near my mouth. Hopefully they'll fill in, but if they don't, I recon I have enough on the sides for a sweet pair of mutton chops. Mutton chops might go better with my sweet pompadour hairdo than a full beard anyway. Maybe.
Monday November 19 2007
... the saplings seem to be coming in well so far.
Thursday November 15 2007
... After 2 days of not shaving, ready to go.
Wednesday November 7 2007
I'm shaved down, baby-faced and itchin' to get this thing started!!!!
