Bearded since: 1997. I am a dedicated, permanent beard grower.

Comments:
I grew my beard because I thought it was stupid to continually shave everyday, when I could just grow my beard. The money you save on shaving gear means I can save for more important things in life, like beer, food, and more beer. :-) As Sir Paul McCartney sang many years ago -- and I quote "woke up this morning and dragged a comb across my face" -- in a Beatles' song, this I've been doing for just over ten years. I've been through the many stages of trimming and grooming. Would never,ever go back to shaving.

How do I feel about my beard? Good. The white ones are just starting to grow through.
It won't be too long and I'll be mistaken for Santa. ;-)
