                                                Bearded since: 1989.  I am a dedicated, permanent beard grower.
 Comments:
 I grew my beard because I like it. Couldn't have one in the military.  So when I got out in 1987, I refused to shave or get a haircut for a couple a years.
 
 How do I feel about my beard?  I like to try it different ways from time to time. This year was the first time I've let it grow long.
