On this board, read the "Rules for Acquisition". There is something called the 24 hour rule. It means if you get a crazy idea, wait 24 hours to think it through. Many good beards have been ruined in the heat of the moment, without thinking it through. Your beard is blond. It will take longer to look filled in. Glad you didn't decide to use those sharp objects. Now, just get them out of your mind, and if there are any around, just get rid of them. Your beard needs time to become respectable. Wodin, keep growing. Obviously from your forum name, there has to be some Viking in you, for in England, Wodin is Odin in Scandinavia. And as a blond of viking inheritance, you got to keep going. Keep us updated. Tom
