Walkman - I cannot tell you if my beard was blond earlier. I have only had it for the last 2 years.
My head hair was blond, so I figure the beard would have been. Thanks for the complements on
the Viking beard. I would not worry about being a bigger fellow. That will just make whatever
style you choose look even more impressive. Remember your personality and demeanor have as
much to do with your look as your chosen style.

That Civil War story is moving. Do you have any pictures you can post? That would be quite a
site. A beard down to his waist is impressive. I find it ironic how now a 1 1/2 foot beard is
considered "big" (which it is) Have we experienced beard deflation? Interesting how the current
times/standards define what big/long is. I really enjoyed that story. Thank you.
