- Exactly. Whenever I'm asked why I have a beard & moustache, I reply,
- "Because I'm too lazy to get up 20 minutes earlier each morning and
- shave." This gets a laugh, but is the truth. I'm even lazier than
- Peter Nelson, above, who trims his beard every two weeks--I go to a
- barber shop every two weeks for a trim, getting a haircut also every
- other time.
