Checking in on how the men of Movember are doing.
It appears that some in Afghanistan are sympatico.
Meanwhile, down under, handlebars seem to be the rage... [pic link and the $2500 team]

MUSTACHE LORE: "THE MAGNIFICENT MUSTACHE", Rank and its privileges...
a.m. picker-upper, because the world is too much with us, now and then, by the Sparks
Meanwhile, have you seen the mustache on Don Seigelman's lawyer? I keep looking for a press photo, because it's outrageous.
It's not movember, it's Mustache May, wherein amateurs are unreasonably proud.
And various bloggers have 'em, too:
Who give shocking ideas for the political icon(s) of our time, including George Stephanopoulos:
Travolta is sporting a 'stache, but Eisner got a star. A star for Eisner? Welcome to Hollywood!

The Milk Mustache
[pic link for interesting blog entry]...the moustache worn alone is what unmakes the man, not when he wears it together with a beard. Shaving (or plucking) off the beard is the fatal sign of effeminacy. If so, Alexander Severus’ moustache passes muster and he can’t be called a ‘sissy’ for that reason.

Unfortunately, I don't have the artist's name.
Daniel Radcliff (a.k.a. "Harry Potter") puts on a mustache for BBC war story.

MO' BRO
Courtesy of the mates from Austrailia, the international charity mustache, quaintly called "MOs" down under, is underway in November, ...er, Movember.
So, are you man enough to "MO up"?
The milk mustache seems to be no where in the pantheon of mustaches. It appeals to my inveterate sense of whimsy ...
The Mail tracks what is was.
One young Tory MP said that "Eden had to prove he had a real moustache" - a metaphor for proving his courage. The Prime Minister's wife, Clarissa, did her best to help.
Moments before her husband's broadcast on November 3, 1956, the eve of the invasion of Suez, she saw on a television monitor that his moustache was almost invisible and quickly blackened it with her mascara. By then, the moustache was vanishing as fast as the Empire.
True, it had ceased to be compulsory in the Army as early as 1916, when King's Regulations had permitted shaving the upper lip.
Do mustaches make you wiser? Of COURSE they do!
