This mo’tograph looks like something you would see on the news in regards to a smarmy individual abusing himself in the bushes outside zoos. If you see this man, please call the SPCA…
Ok, it’s not really that bad, but I hate the way it feels on my face. I am so looking forward to December 1st when I can rid myself of this grim thing. It actually looks like it needs a trim.
Here’s today’s video. I whipped it up over at xtranormal.com. Meet Dirty Dave Sanchez, here he gives his take on Movember:
It has been 15 days since I started growing the mo’ for Movember. We’re halfway through the month and my face is itchy and feels dirty. I have an interview for a gig tomorrow and have already warned them that what they are going to see is not my typical presentation. Meaning, ignore the fact that I seemingly have forgotten to wash under my nose.
Looks rather ethereal tonight. My official mo’tographer, Carol, cannot restrict herself to the plain old forensic looking straight on moustache shot and has to get creative. Although nice it doesn’t really show of the mo’. At least I don’t look fat.
People have been asking me for more information about Movember and where the money from donations actually goes. Here’s the Movember Canada Impact Video 08 / 09 to give you more information:
My cat just had his belly shaved two days ago and seems to have more hair on it than my upper lip after 13 days:
My nose hairs are longer. At least my finger is not in there.
Speaking of fingers. My friend, film and television director Ron Oliver, pointed out to me today that early detection via a prostate exam goes a long way toward saving lives. He went on to say that I should let my readers know that a finger up the ass does not make you gay.
Ron is gay.
I’m just sayin’.
Not that there’s anything wrong with that.
Just get the exam. Doctors are gentle. At least the one who did mine was.
Speaking of Movember, I am going to be running a little contest! Thanks to Arbitrage Clothing in New York one lucky person will be sporting a pair of official Movember Cuff Links designed by Movember founder, Adam Garone (on twitter), and Arbitrage Clothing founder and designer, Alan Chan (on twitter and who I will be interviewing here on this blog within the next week or so). There are four beautiful designs to choose from on the Arbitrage web store each costing $65 USD, $20 of which goes directly to the Movember charity. Shipping and returns are free. Yes, they do ship internationally to Australia, Canada, UK, New Zealand, Ireland, etc.
Here’s what a pair of these bad boys looks like:
And they look pretty smart when performing their intended function as well:
Nice huh? You know you want ‘em.
If you really do want these links send an email to movember@mikebrowne.com with the subject line ‘Movember Cuff Links’ with your name, email and full mailing address (I promise not to spam you) and send me a picture of you with a mo’ along with your permission to post it with your first name, last initial, town/city and state/province. If you have a web site, send me the link to that too, but is not required. I will post the most creative mo’ pictures I get. ONE (1) entry per person.
I don’t care if you Photoshop a mo’ on your face because the ladies are going to have to as this contest is open to them too. At least I would hope they would have to. Yeesh.
All entries must be received by midnight of Friday, November 27, 2009 and I will draw and make the announcement on this blog on Saturday, November 28th, 2009. I will ship these anywhere in the world, just make sure you give me your proper address so you can be sure to get them.
As today is the 12th day of Movember here’s some 70′s style p0rn music from Sesame Street to teach you how to count from one to twelve (and numbers in between):
I don’t feel like writing much tonight. I am tired and frazzled from dealing with the cat stuff. Ugh. Have a good night.
My cat ate some yarn and needed surgery today (you can read more here). So, I am mo’ping as seen in evidence in the picture below taken by mo’tographer Carol.
I didn’t shave the rest of the crud off my face today, but as you can see we’re growing again. I am kind of pooped out so I am not going to write a lot tonight. I do, however, have a little something up my sleeve (that is punnier than you know right now) about a Movember giveaway thanks to an email I got today from a mysterious man named Rory. More shall be revealed, if things work out.
Until then, here’s today’s Mo’ video. One of my favorite mo’ wearers. It’s Ron Burgundy (Will Ferrell) in Anchorman. He’s kind of a big deal:
I am listening to Led Zeppelin IV while I write this post, so, being under the influence of satanic 70′s rock and roll I cannot be held responsible for what you might see.
First my daily mo’gress photo, by Carol Browne, my official mo’tographer:
The mo’s looking much better today. I think the spirit of Magnum sprinkled Rogaine on my lip in my sleep. Thank Magnum!
In the original you could see my closed eyes, protecting myself from the flash, but it made me look like a corpse so I cropped them out. Believe me it’s much better this way. Carol said she liked my pretty eyelashes. Being the macho man I am, having your wife tell you that you have pretty eyelashes is emasculating enough without the 3 people who read these posts seeing them too, so good bye.
Before I go off on a rant here’s the reason I am cultivating a porn ‘stache:
Thanks to Arnie G for today’s donation to Movember.
I have determined that after Movember is over I am going to keep the 70′s look going afterward and perhaps grow a beard and get me a blue hooded jumpsuit and a chunky gold bracelet like this badass:
Ken, one of the generous donors to my campaign said I should start rubbing some rogaine on my upper lip as the growth appears to be slow. I really think that things have stalled. I am not sure what the problem is as my moustache usually grows like weeds. Perhaps my mo’ hairs have stage fright. They’ve never been photographed so much.
Grow mo’ grow! Thanks again to Carol the mo’tography.
Here’s the reason that my upper lip looks like a stripper’s bits after a week of camping without a razor:
Thanks today to Ken R and Andrea W for ponying up to help keep prostates cancer free. Great stuff!
Perhaps a little positive affirmation and visualization will help: “I have the hairy genetics of Sasquatch and Gene Shalit. My mo’ is growing out of control. I am tripping over my mo’. It tastes like week old soup!”
I am no officially not enjoying the feeling of that thing on my face. I almost absentmindedly shaved it off this morning, but caught myself before the first slice. I do not want to fail at growing facial hair. That would be embarrassing.
There is a reason I am putting myself through all this:
