    MO-vember

    Do you guys in the US and the UK do Movember? It's a fundraiser for charities that provide support for prostate cancer and depression, and the idea is that for the month of November you grow a moustache, and people sponsor each individual mo-grower. So, it's like Red Nose Day and Pink Ribbon etc, but for guys.

    Here's a simple Paypal link if anybody is interested in throwing a couple of dollars to this great cause by sponsoring my mo .....

    As the month progresses, I'll post some update pics of how my new porn star look is coming along.
    Cheers

    Its Mo-vember!!!!!!!!

    *Wives and girlfriends across Australia cringe*

    PS. You better donate some money, or the guy in the blue shirt in the front row will sacrifice some kittens, or torture your grandparents, or something like that.

    By complete coincidence three days ago I decided I was gonna grow a beard (+moustache) for the hell of it with no knowledge of Mo-vember.

    I'll see if I can raise some charity money for it.

    I think the guy in the black shirt is going to be hairiest at the end of the month. He's already got a shadow!

    trussrod adjustment:
    Click here for an image!
    less relief / flatter = lower action
    more relief / bow = higher action
    do NOT use cheap tools to adjust with. they might break and scrape up your pressious!
    also, if you are lucky enough to have a 100th namm sr4: the truss works the other way around on that one!
