Movember

Posted by Greg October - 28 - 2009 - Wednesday

movemberI have teamed up with a good friend to form a 2-man team for Movember. Our team name, chosen by David (who originally wanted “Movember Reign” which was taken) is “The Movemberists”. Movember is basically a moustache-growing contest. And since I am powerful with facial hair, I am a pretty safe horse to bet on for growing a 4-star+ ’stache.

As you can tell by following the above link, there is a fundraising component. I would appreciate anything you guys have to give, as it helps to raise money for fighting prostate cancer.

My personal donation page is found here: http://ca.movember.com/mospace/168763

..which is probably the easiest way to make a donation. As far as I know (I haven’t gone through the process myself), tax receipts are issued automatically if you make an online payment. For anybody wishing to do the traditional donation thing, I have all the required forms to make a request on your behalf.

If you would also like to join the team (I know, kinda last-minute, but it only takes a moment to sign up!), either to raise some funds or just for the heck of squaring off against me or David in a moustache race, just go to the main site, hit the “Register” button, and select the “Join as a Team Member” option. Our team is “The Movemberists”; there are a few with similar names, so pick the one captained by David Hicks.

If nothing else, please visit my page after the 15th to vote my stache. I’ll pop a reminder into the blog as well. ;-)

    I’m pretty sure that Greg will trounce me. He has the Dr. Xavier of facial hair. He is also the king of annoying tag cloud animation thing. Kill it with fire!

      Holy crap, it worked! I didn’t think you could kill an annoying tag cloud remotely with fire, but… somehow you did!

      Maybe there is more to fear from “El Cabra” than I first thought.
