I have a full beard year-round. I keep it trimmed very short most of the year, but let it get a little more woolly in the winter. I never realized how much difference it made until the year my son was born. Someone suggested that clean-shaven may be more baby-friendly, so I took it off before he was born (in November).

I realized it was a mistake the first time I had to drag the snow blower out after a storm .... man oh man, a blast of snow in the face is cold without some scruff to protect you!

Decided to grow a full beard last winter (first time I've ever worn facial hair). I've gotten too lazy to shave daily anymore, so I decided to keep it year round...

Yep.. the SRT-4.. the turbocharged 224hp variant.. that was also 3 years ago. Remove beard and posters and add 30lbs.


Ohh and niss.. I thought cherokees had chiefs, not captains :wink:

I grew a beard when I moved north, but got rid of it. It wasn't for me.

I don't wear one anymore for two reasons: The lady friend.


In order to see her, and avoid paying for a ticket, I'm supposed to be clean shaven to ride in the jumpseat.

Isn't it really because you know you could never beat her in a beard growing contest?
