It's so long now it's getting ridiculous.  It's not long before we shoot the video for Salvation Jane where we'll be utilizing the beard... but I tells ya... the shoot won't come soon enough.

The beard was borne out of sheer boredom back in mid January...  I had bought a Schick razor as my trusty Gillette was unavailable to purchase; but the schick was not pleasant at all.  It cut me twice and kept getting all of my whiskers caught...  I know it doesn't sound terribly annoying, but ask any man about his shaving regime... if you mess with it, prepare for war.

So the razor went straight in the bin without passing GO or collecting $200; both the razor AND it's spare blades that I also bought that also seemed like a good investment.

As such, I don't need to remind ANYBODY about the cost of razorblades...  seriously?  I've got some on lay-by right now...  For those hairy unaware people, razors are not cheap.  Razors are up there with ink in the cost versus disposable output ratio.  It's ALMOST cheaper to get a barber to do it.  But don't get Tony Barber to do it... he will also cost a fortune.

Anyway because of this prohibitive cost... I wasn't eager to just rush out and purchase another razor... for fear of defaulting on my mortgage and also on the principle that I'D JUST BOUGHT ONE!!  A terrible one at that, that I deemed bin worthy not face worthy.  The razor went, and so did my hairless face.  If Schick were going to be so crap at making razors, then I was going to grow a beard.

That was mid-January.  Now it's the beginning of April and the joke has worn off slightly.  I look like Santa in his younger years.  Or Ned Kelly after a box of Krispy Kremes.  The beard is long... I think you get the visual.

Once the video is over, in less than a month, I will baby-faced clean-shaven Courtney again... and people won't fear the bearded dude anymore...  wait on...

Love Court.
