Thanks a bunch Tom, that is quite a compliment. You always know what to say. I'm so glad I took your advice and kept on growing. If not I would have shaved it off today or went with a short stubbly look. It just seems to be growing so slow and I am not a patient person. The pillow was a Christmas gift from a co-worker. She crocheted it herself.

Thanks Triibeard. I do what I can to keep it professional looking for work, but as it is getting longer that is getting more difficult. I swear I spend more time grooming my beard in the morning than I do anything else to get ready. Price to pay I guess.

Awesome bhster. I do feel honored to have all of you guys with such outstanding bears comment on my humble little beard. I'll try adding some shades next time and perfect that bad ass look. The pillow was a Christmas gift from a co-worker. She crocheted it herself. Guess I'll have to spend some time to on a handlebar to match it, eh? Btw, I said it before but in bears mentioning again. You have a sweet ass handlebar. Between you and Tom, there is,no room for me. Lol.

Thank you beardedinnj, really. Happy new year to yourself.

Goateedude. Thanks. I have not had any negative comments about my beard from anyone at work or in my personal life yet. I am also happy to say that one of my employees that I convinced to grow his out has kept with it since the middle of November. He is going to end up putting mine to shame.

Birdbeard, you are totally correct. It would definetly add to the volume that I am looking for, but alas that is my natural neckline. Strange, I know, buts it mine. I only shave a small bit that grows down the center of my neck to my Adams apple in a two inch racing stripe. That is all I have. Wish it was more because I would totally love to. Thank you for noticing that it is filling in a bit.

Well, like I said I will be keeping the beard till at least Feb. and then decide what to do from there. Perhaps it's a short goal, but it is what I can handle now.

Cheers!

I have a terrible feeling that, because I am wearing a beard and sitting in the back of the theater, you expect me to tell you the truth about something?  These are cheap seats, not Mt. Sinai.
