Day 3: A Bridge Over The River Mo

It is quite understandable; it's a very natural reaction. But one day - in a week, a month, a year - on that day when, God willing, we all return to our homes again, you're going to feel very proud of what you have achieved here in the face of great adversity. What you have done should be, and I think will be, an example to all our countrymen, soldier and civilian alike. You have survived with honor - that, and more - here in the wilderness. You have turned defeat into victory. I congratulate you. Well done.
- Alec Guinness as Colonel Nicholson - Bridge Over The River Kawi, 1957

For those who don't have a father who is obsessed with World War II movies or have never lost their channel changer while their TV is suck on the History Channel; the Bridge Over The River Kawi is a movie of grand proportion.  It follows the story of British POWs in WWII who have been ordered by their captors to build a bridge over the River Kawi so a railroad supply line could be complete between Burma and Siam.  Under the direction of Colonel Nicholson the construction of the bridge becomes a symbol of pride for the POWs to display British resiliency.  In the climax of the movie the bridge comes toppling down and the POWs are freed by allied forces.

The Handlebars, Magnums, Dirty Burts, and Mario mustaches we are all growing this month are much like the bridge the British Forces Built in WWII.  They are symbols, nothing more, nothing less, and when they reach their climax they will be wiped off our faces but what they represent will not be forgotten.  Hope, support, pride, and comradery amongst men.

November may be prostate cancer awareness month but it should not be treated as the only month of the year where prostate health is a priority.  Clinics across North America are busy with patients because of what Movember stands for but it is important to remember you do not need to get tested in November.  Consult with your family doctor as to when your annual physical exam should occur.  The important thing is you go get checked. Period.  If you have been following my blog and you've taken the quiz and you feel your at risk now, then go now, if not consult with your physician and develop an annual health plan.


My Bro. Mo.

The 5 o'clock shadow is in full force today.  I really hate this stage of facial hair growth.  It's short, stubbly and irritating around my neck.  I'm going to let it grow until I have a full beard and then I'll shave in my bro. mo.  I'm going to consult with a few members of the fairer sex as to what type of stash would look the best, if you have any suggestions please comment below.

Happy growing everyone.

Famous Bro. Mo. Of The Day

This is Alec Guinness in 1957 in the Bridge Over The River Kwai.  For you young bucks out there, he is better known as the original Obi-Wan Kenobi from episodes IV-VI of Star Wars Saga.  Alec had the force with him long before the 1977 movie was ever released.  What was the source of his force powers?  You guessed it. THE STASH.  Check out that beautifully maintained "business man" mustache!  If he managed that in a POW camp, imagine what you can do with a mirror.

What can we learn from Alec Guinness?  The key to obtaining Jedi powers is to grow a stash.  Be a Jedi.  Grow a mo. Donate today.
