I was traveling in Europe last winter and was discriminated against in Switzerland.... let's just say I didn't get the lap dance I paid for. What are some common reactions to your moustache/beard? "Holy shit your beard is huge/rad/amazing/really cool" Plenty of, "your beard is gorgeous, lets fuck"....o.k. that doesn't happen. I'm sure there's plenty of "what a f-ing pinko-commie-loser". Whatever. Why do you have your moustache/beard? Beyond remembering someone who is gone it's a way to stay alive. Keeps me from falling in with the masses.

I don't really have heroes but here are some fellow bearded individuals I appreciate: Rasputin, Castro, John Bonam (spell?), Frederick Douglas, Willie Nelson, Richie Tenenbaum, Oliver Sacks, Frank Zappa, Steve Zissou, Dali, Rick Rubin and Jerry Harvey.
