Re: [Growing Long Beards ] new member intro

I think what you said was directed at me rather than Gep2bear.

I know they don't. I checked their web site to find out the
requirements. From what I read and understand, as long as the hair is
a minimum of 10" long and in good condition, they will use it. If not,
they send it on to someone else.

As for doing it in private, that won't be happening. As I said, I'll
be doing it at a St. Baldrick's event. It will be somewhat of a media
circus but the media here in DC has never attended so there is no worry
about it being broadcast on the news.

However, I can agree with what you said about the media loves to cover
men having their hair hacked off. Just look at The Maury Show. I hate
the men's makeovers.

more durable washes beautifully, lasts for years I know I have a hole in my
natural and have used the monofillimint for thirty years, they run about two to
threehundred whear as the real hair one ran two thousand . Please do what your
heart says but think it over.and as a final note if you do hack it off do it in
prevate and dont make a media circus out of it, the media loves to show bros
having their hair hacked off.thanks G. Singh

I guess I would have less problem with that if when you did cut it, you still maintained it to at least shoulder length. On Sat, 09 Sep 2006 08:50:27 -0400...
