Default Re: Beard or no Beard

If I remember correctly, the last time I shaved was in 1977. I did so for two days. On the third, I started growing my beard back. It's just too painful.

Mrs. Alura likes beards and it's a damned good thing 'cause if she didn't we would have passed like ships in the night back in 1980. She has never seen me clean shaven, nor does she want to.

Growing a beard is ecologically responsible, not to mention thrifty. There is no outlay for razor blades, aftershave, shaving cream, and all the other stuff one needs that eventually must end up in the sewer or landfill. I've used the same hair clipper to trim my beard for twenty years.

If a woman rejects me because she doesn't like beards, well... life's like that. I'll survive and she'll never feel my beard between her thighs. Of course, she'll probably not care. We'll get along quite well, never having gotten to know each other.

Mr. Alura
