Shaved Till 62

Believe it or not I STOPPED shaving in 1962 My beard should be down to the floor Well that's not exactly correct Trim every couple of months or so To attract the ladies and boy did that work Can't keep them away with a weapon Played 5-string banjo in a folk group in '62 Recorded an album and appeared on TV So it was required to grow a beard Although not that all unusual Have a definite record of it We were called The Canadiana Folksingers Happy times!

I grew my first goatee at 79. I love the freedom of not shaving my whole face. I think most of us despise shaving, but we also like the look. Thought I'd clean shave the other day, but couldn't bring myself to do it. Good on you, Jack.

Oh my, Jack. This is such an old avatar! I have a gray goatee and my hair is snow white! When I joined PS, I just put the only pic of me I had on the computer here. I really need to change it. The ladies may get the wrong idea! Hmmm, I should be so lucky!
