But as soon as you can shave, you can start growing an awesome mustache!!!!

But not right away. If you try to grow a mustache right away, it looks all wimpy. Ya' gotta shave until the hairs are growing thick enough before attempting the 'stache....

This reminds me...A Stanley Cup tradition is to not shave for the duration that your team is contending. So many of the players are young... extremely young that their beards? Not so great.

Yeah, but try telling that to a lot of young boys. "Hey, you have a smudge of something on your face....oh, it's a mustache. Right on, dude."

I think some of the older ones even have troubles.

Which reminds me, I was flipping around the channels last night, and the Montreal-Philadelphia game was about to start, and they were showing Philly fans entering the arena. One guy was dressed in an orange, fuzzy, Flyers-logoed pimp suit and hat. I actually paused and rewound to make sure it wasn't David Borenanaz. I wish I could find a picture.

My almost-18-y.o. nephew has got a quite prodigious beard growing. It's gotta be the Italian from his mom's side, because my brother couldn't get a decent beard going until he was in college. He shaved it off once after he got his degree, but we laughed at him so hard (he looked like a baby!!) that he grew it back and hasn't shaved it off in the 24 years since. It's now almost all grey and he keeps it relatively short, so I asked him earlier this month why he bothers with it all, since it's practically invisible. It's part of him now, so he keeps it.

But they're so cute anyway. Bless.

Something we've talked about before.... Now charges have been filed.

Parents charged in diabetes death

Weston - Even as her 11-year-old daughter lay dying on a mattress on the floor of the family dining room on Easter Sunday, Leilani Neumann never wavered in her belief in the power of prayer.

"We just thought it was a spiritual attack and we prayed for her," Neumann said, according to a police report. "My husband, Dale, was crying and mentioned taking Kara to the doctor, and I said the Lord's going to heal her and we continued to pray."

Prayer didn't save Madeline Kara Neumann, who died of untreated diabetes March 23.

And now, the law is poised to come down hard on the girl's parents, Leilani and Dale Neumann, who were both charged with second-degree reckless homicide Monday by Marathon County District Attorney Jill Falstad.

If convicted, the parents face maximum sentences of 25 years in prison and a $100,000 fine.

Dude. I was wearing makeup at 15 and it was not considered slutty. I mean, if you can get a driver's permit and a work permit, I personally don't think mascara is pushing the envelope.

K-Bug's high school recently did Fiddler on the Roof. The lead grew his own beard and just powdered it for the show. It was FANTASTIC. And made all the kids with fake beards look silly.

Disney's having a hell of a time with its child stars. Course, this scandal is pretty mild, comparatively.

Which is what makes me think its manufactured.
