There is never a winner...

Early August myself and seven other teachers at the high school decided to grow mustaches for the first day of school. So, with school starting this week I'm officially embarrassed to leave home. The rest of the high school staff is quite amused. Some of the students have caught wind of what is going on and have stopped by my classroom to see the show...I should start charging.

I have come to the conclusion that there is never a winner in a mustache growing contest...however, everyone is a loser. Along with the rest of the guys in the contest I have decided that if you did not have the ability to grow a mustache prior to 1985 then you should never attempt to pull it off. Why is it that some guys can just pull it off...Tom Selleck, Burt Reynolds and Mark Spitz? What do these guys have that I don't? Why is it that Eryn is glued to the TV during 1972 Olympic swimming highlights and reruns of Magnum PI but she can't even look at me right now? So it is with this that I salute all of the men that not only wear a mustache but wear it well. In case you haven't noticed, I am NOT one of those men.

It seems like you're trying to hide something with that 'stach... what could it be?

Get rid of that, Ricky. Just because you can grow one doesn't make it right.

You look like a police officer from the eighties, maybe some tight shorts and a billy stick.
