No astounding examples of moustached journalism this week, my friends. It has been one of those times which hardly leaves room for the manly grooming rituals necessary to maintain our lifestyle.
Wired News has an excellent feature on a gentleman named Clayton Bailey who creates beautiful sci-fi ray guns. Not withstanding their intransigent and improper spelling of ‘moustache,’ I suggest that you check it out!
Note: Excellent photos by Ariel Zambelich for Wired.com
Our undercover embedded correspondent in the Big Smoky Valley sends this photographic update. Meet Irvin. It’s important to note that if you wear two different types of plaid and a polka-dot scarf WITHOUT a dashing ‘stache, it will not work. However, if you have a moustache this is of no concern.
Thanks to the AMI for this gem of talent:
From the excellent Shorpy Photo Archive:
July 1913. “Gettysburg reunion: Veterans of the G.A.R. and of the Confederacy, at the Encampment.” Harris & Ewing glass negative.
In spite of their focus on the beard rather than the ‘stache, we have decided to endorse The Beards because they are hilarious. And their beards all include moustaches, so they’re alright by me.
I have to warn you in advance that this video may not be good for you. It may instill in you a desire for the smell of burnt rubber on asphalt, gasoline fumes, and a 90mph wind blowing through your ‘stache.
In other words, don’t try this at home. As a sidenote, this is the second video of this type produced by Icon (a manufacturer of quality motorcycle apparel). The first one didn’t have any moustaches. This one is much better, and gives me hope that Icon will soon introduce a helmet designed to be worn without disrupting one’s facial hair.
