Movember starts off with us men shaving on the 31st of October and letting our moustaches grow over the month of November. Simple enough. The thing is, if I shaved tonight and let it grow, you wouldn’t see much of a difference thirty days from now.
I shaved a maximum of ten times in my life. I’ve been sporting a beard ever since that first hair revealed itself over my upper lip, and because of that my beard grows really, really slow. So what I do is, trim my beard on the 31st (tonight!) and let it grow. It’s not official but who really cares, right? The point is to raise awareness for prostate cancer.
Feel free to visit Movember’s website and donate whatever you can afford.
Happy Movember!
If you want to sit down and play Angry Birds (or Trainyard – seriously, you should play Trainyard) then sit down and play Angry Birds. But don’t use Angry Birds or whatever else you can think of to occupy your mind when it might otherwise be accomplishing something.

Ads signify to me that the money I paid isn’t enough to give me the product I thought I paid for. That’s what I called “double-dipping”: I paid with the expectation that I was paying for the entire product, and then I was unexpectedly sold out, which offends me.
I totally agree with him on this. I’ve purchased many magazines over the years and I always feel ripped off when I open it up and see full page ads page after page. It’s ridiculous.

Why did I wait so long before watching this? Why didn’t anyone tell me to do so sooner?
Well, be right back. Catching up on lost time.
In the last few years, my goal in life has been to have the smallest carbon footprint possible. I recycle everything recyclable, I spend over three hours daily commuting using public transit when the number could be drastically smaller by driving a car, I use reusable bags and never accept plastic bags from stores, I carry around one of those reusable water bottles, and the list goes on. But the one thing I will not do is take cold, short showers.
A long, hot shower is one of the few things in life that I actually love and I will not settle for something far less enjoyable. I guess you guys will just have to work harder to cover my faults, or else it looks like we’ll die sooner. Sorry.
Got myself Millencolin’s Pennybridge Pioneers today after a client brought it back because the person who he was buying it for already owned it. Normally we’re not supposed to accept returns after twenty-one days of purchase, but I really wanted it so I accepted it anyway.
I used to listen to this album pretty much every day back in high school. Oh the good old days!
