The beard is now entering its third glorious week. The itching has stopped, mostly, and I’ve just learned about the need to trim the lower mustache to avoid an uncomfortable feeling on my lip. All in all, not a bad first effort. I leave for Asia on August 1 and enter Afghanistan August 13.

To offset the beard I think you should carry a copy of the latest Playboy with you everywhere.
You’re beginning to look a lot like Fazial…
(to the tune of, “It’s beginning to look a lot like Christmas”)
oops. the Times Square Bomber, that is. I apologize for the misspelling of his name.
Osama bin Rall has been spotted on the West Side.
Awesome!
Personally, I loathe this “Western” thing that men have to shave.
I think “Alexander” set the stage. Officially it was so an opponent couldn’t grab a man’s beard (or hair) and have an advantage. That’s as if an enemy who managed to do that couldn’t have just stabbed them. (wound in one motion or two, take your pick) Unofficial, it was because Alexander was incredibly GAY and wanted to fantasize about legions of young boys at his command.
You are too highbrow for “Conspiracy” but somewhere I think there’s a bunch of Reptiles (perhaps possessing Rockefellers) looking through all the street “Security” cameras and seeing all the clean faces and bodies that try to be as fit as possible going “Ah… pretty, pretty young people… My favorite foooooodddd…”
You look great and even with the danger you enter, I envy you. They make an incredible coffee, you might look up “Turkish Coffee” for a close break down. And they got hookah. Also, the invention of Hashish was in this area and they, not the Turks though they are close, allegedly make the best hashish in the world.
Rall al-Theodore!
Ted, you’ve been blessed with a great soul patch. After your sweet vacation, I think you should keep the soul patch. Perhaps experiment with a goatee or just the mustache and soul patch combo
Aggie, you call that a soul patch? This is a soul patch.
