Adam Carolla w/ a Moustache

This was a sad week for many of us...Adam Carolla, even utilizing a unicycle and a moustache, could not impress America enough to stay on dancing with the stars. I was impressed by the performance although he does look quite stiff. Check the end of the video for a good view of the 'stache.

Alex Trebek, Sporting the 'Stache Again?

Well this morning a coworker who shares the respect for the moustache told me he caught Jeopardy last night and informed me that Alex Trebek was once again sporting the moustache. I don't watch much any more, it has just gotten too easy. This excited me to no end but then I found this blurb on wikipedia's Alex Trebek entry:

In late 2001, during Jeopardy!'s 18th season, Trebek shaved the mustache that he had worn for over 30 years. He wore a fake mustache for the first half of the April 1, 2008 episode as an April Fools' joke.

A cruel joke indeed. Oh well I guess I will have to cement Will Ferrel's portrayal as my mental image for the time being.

Single Tear

While most of the world is busy playing pranks and telling funny jokes on April 1st, I am in a somber mood. Today my moustache came off. After 3 months of preparation and one month of pure enjoyment my face is bare. This year is even more drastic since I have no facial hair whatsoever and nary a hair on my head. I think this is the first time that my eyebrows have been so lonely in over two years, though I think my new found abundance of nose and ear hair are keeping them company.

So while your coworkers are finding their staplers in strawberry jello and gmail is telling you that you can change the date on your emails, I ask you to take a moment and think of all the moustache marchers out there that today can only look forward to next year.

As I post this blog I once again shed a single tear ...
