Day 3’s upon us (Unless you’re Marc, who’s in China and living in the future that is Day 4.) and mustaches are currently looking like dirt-stained lips. From a few feet away, you might think I had soot on my hands, scratched under my nose and was doing a spot on impression of Michael Banks. These are the early days of Movember. The rough ones. The silly ones.

It’s Day 2 and mustaches at this point are essentially invisible. In good lighting, you can almost see a shadow of a ‘stache on my upper lip. Hopefully, my Mo Bros can say the same. It’s not easy Mo’ing it up at this point. You either look like you’ve got nothing or you forgot to shave your upper lip. Not ideal… but hey, the final result is well worth it! Hang in there, Mo Bros!

The big day’s finally here. Movember 1st. The game is afoot!
Last night (or this morning) the entirety of Mammoth-Stache shaved up for the kick-off of Movember. Fresh-faced, we all walked into a new world: A world that will soon feature our most excellent mustaches!

It’s finally Movember 1st and I just shaved. Jessi was kind enough to document the grooming process with a series of photographs. Please enjoy the progression from beard to bald-face…

Happy Halloween, boys and ghouls!
In only a few hours, I’ll be shaving off my beard to begin Movember hair-free and facially smooth. In preparation, I’ve spent the weekend binging on candy, good food, great beer and hanging out with mustachioed ladies…

I’m as hirsute as a man can be. No secret there. However, many of you may have wondered how I came to be so hairy, especially on and around my face. Was it exposure to gamma radiation that made my handsome mug sprout a forest of whiskers? Perhaps I was a scrawny young man with cheeks as smooth as a baby’s bottom until Dr. Erskine injected me with some sort of super shaggy formula. While I can’t confirm or deny these theories—doing so would put countless lives in danger—I can verify that I come from a proud mustache tradition. In fact, a mustache was present at the union of my parents!

Just a week away from the official kick off of Movember, Mo Bro Ammar Bahrani has joined Team Mammoth-Stache! Adding his powerful upper lip and the $33 he’s already raised for the cause, Ammar’s addition gives Mammoth-Stache a foothold in another American city (Scottsdale, Ariz.) and moves us into the 11-or-more team bracket! We’re now, even more so, a force of moustachery to be reckoned with!

Some comics are good, some are bad and some are just awesome and fun all the time. If you’re a fan of fun, Tiny Titans is always a good bet! I recently read issue #31 and this sequence cracked me up. Enjoy!

Wow, what a day!
In the past 24 hours, Team Mammoth-Stache received over $300 in donations from 13 different people. That’s a lot of mustache love and generosity going to benefit Movember! On behalf of the whole Mammoth-Stache crew, I’d like to pass along a huge “thank you” to everyone who took the time to donate today! Seeing my e-mail inbox fill with donation notifications felt like having pure happiness poured into my chest. The reaffirmation that you know tremendously great people is always fantastic, and I’m sure that will end up being my favorite part of Movember… kinda like it was last year. Again, thanks you so much, everybody!

“The simple fact is: you do need help. I didn’t think I did. I was in a fairly senior position all my life—a bit of a control freak. And all of a sudden, I needed help.”
