| Tell Us Why You Have The MEANEST Beard? (Share An Interesting Story Behind Your Beard.

I said goodbye to my exorbitant corporate salary, then sold my souped-up Audi S4 and river-view condo. Seeing one child die from cancer is enough for anyone, but I was seeing hundreds... each with no hope of treatment, let alone a cure. I will not stop until cancer is cured, even if it costs me my life and career. |

| Tell Us Why You Have The MEANEST Beard? (Share An Interesting Story Behind Your Beard. We Want To Know Who The Man Behind The Beard Is.) | Trough the years I consider my beard as a cure, friend and a weapon. It's ridiculous how beard works. It can be a convo starter like hey what's up? Great beard!. It scares people when I need to even when you don't have any bad intentions nor bad mood. Beard can be a mood booster a swell by receiving random approval and compliments from strangers on a street. |
