The Quest for Every Beard Type

As you may have noticed in the Flickr pics from Pace's birthday, my “winter beard” is gone (“winter beard” being a very loose definition – some years it doesn't appear until January as happened this year, some years it sticks around for pretty much 11 months as I think was the case while I was at library school.)

Anyhow, it's always a bit of a minor milestone when the beard either begins or ends and so this site which records one man's quest to attain every beard type struck a chord.

Like him, I often take the ritual “shaving of the beard” as an opportunity to try a five-second version of “hey, what would I look like with a fu manchu/goatee/soul patch/mutton chops/etc.”? 

Unlike him, I will not be posting photos of my experiments!
