By popular demand, here's an update on my expedition beard growing successes of late:
On top of adding to my grisled good looks, this beard will give me some protection from the sun and a place to hide snacks for easy access while rowing.
Given that I've been at it for less than a month, I give this beard a 6.5 out of 10. I've still got some work to do to match these bearded wonders of the world: http://www.beards.org/features.php
Enjoy!

I think it is amazing what you are doing, I first read about you in press connects and have been reading your blog everyday. I also lost my mom to cancer. My prayers will be with you and be safe.
Bravo! Will you be so superbly trimming your neck beard on the Atlantic? Also, where are your yettis?

absolutely tremendous. its going to be so awesome after 60+ days at sea. by the way, just read the article sent to me by google alerts that says we are looking at thursday?? very exciting!
Hey Paul! Pressconnects.com is doing a darn good job of keeping folks in the Bing informed about your little jaunt across the pond. I do believe, however, that you should have kept up with your shaving until you actually shoved off shore...it's like you've cheated for 26 days on growing that beard! Jon and I wish you lots of luck...

It takes about 6 weeks for a beard to look legitimate. Yours is quite good for a month. Every seafaring man needs a beard.
But back to business: The Binghamton Press reports you have your paperwork in place and that you may launch Thursday. How about a real update?
Ridley make sure to look for Mayes classes in teh ocean.
Also, I'll drink a beer for every day at sea. First beer is Steel Reserve.
hahaha, you're a disaster! I think all that alone time is getting to you!
Have you considered the extra weight the beard will add to the boat? Your choice - beard or candy bars...
