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!

Mammoth-Stache gets one mo’!
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!

Our biggest single day of donations?!
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!

More from Movember TV…
“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.”

A network of mustache hairs reaching across the globe…
Much like a Facebook for crumb catchers, Movember has added a networking feature to its Web site this year. Basically a way for like-minded mo-growers to band together, Movember’s networks can be used to group people by height, weight, geographical location or a penchant for ponies—just so long as you ask them to make a network page for your social group of choice.

Free Movember business cards!
While poking around the Movember Web site last night, I discovered that Movember has teamed with Moo.com to offer Mo Bros and Mo Sistas 50 free business cards to help spread the word about their fund-raising efforts. You’ll need to pay $5.50 to have the cards shipped, but that’s a steal!

Mo swag!
Last year, I joined the Movember campaign because it seemed like a fun way to get involved and make a difference in the fight against cancer. Grow a mustache to raise money for education and research about men’s health issues? That’s my kind of charity!
It’s an amazing cause, but one of the main reasons I’m back this year is because the folks who crew the Movember campaign have been generous, kind, helpful and extremely involved. Grassroots gone global, if you will. I blogged about my first foray into Movember madness last year and received a personal message and box of fund-raising goodies from Movember CEO Adam Garone. This year, Andy Leonetti from Movember’s LA offices got in touch, gave me loads of encouragement about ramping up Movember efforts in a new city and then sent me a box full of excellent bits of swag!

Mustache Hodgepodge
It’d be easy to assume that my enthusiasm for mustaches in the lead up to Movember is reaching unhealthy levels based on the amount I’ve been blogging and talking about the fundraiser, but thankfully it’s impossible to be “too excited” about mustaches. That’s pure science fact! Ask a scientist, they’ll absolutely verify that… with data!
Anywho, that’s my lame intro to a hodgepodge post for housing some assorted ‘stache-savvy links. Let’s get to it…
