Mustache May, 2007
Yes, ladies and gentlemen, the greatest month of the year is almost upon us once again. It’s a month in which we celebrate and honor that most glorious of facial hair: the Mustache.
It’s Mustache May*
Throughout history, great men, both famous and common, have sported fine mustaches. From Confucius to Mark Twain to Theodore Roosevelt to Salvador Dali to Tom Selleck to Alex Trebeck, it was the mustache that they gave them the intelligence, and truly, the manliness to lead, to inspire and to create.
We invite you to join us at the Mustache May Myspace page, and, for those of you looking to use your ’stache for the greater good, we highly recommend you check out our good friends at Fund-A-Stache.
This year, Mustache May is dedicated to the memory and the works of the great Kurt Vonnegut. We encourage all of you to read one of his many fine books.
In 1870 B.C., Pharaoh Teqikencola banned mustaches throughout Egypt. Shortly thereafter, Egyptian society crumbled. Do not let this happen to the United States of America!
Ladies, we invite you once again to join us this year. Famous celebrities who have joined us in the past include Sienna Miller, Elisha Cuthbert, and of course, Frida Kahlo. So put away the wax ladies and join us in this month of mustaches.
Sincerely,
Los Machos
*This year, no pre-shave is required.

The good folks at 826 Valencia seized on the follicle fever to raise money for their wide variety of free writing programs for children. The Moustache-a-Thon found 18 “farmers” growing moustaches and raising over $10,000 from sponsors. […]
