As you likely know by now, we are huge fans of the bearded businesses, businessmen, products and technologies (would also have accepted: innovations, solutions, or initiatives)… That said, we support nearly any and all beardos and stache wearers with a story, we even stand chin to chin with some goatee wearers… but from time to time, a product comes along, that we would support with or without a bearded angle… one such amazing entity is FireFly Vodka.
Earlier this week our good friend @Dissentertainer pointed us in the direction of an awesome post about poets ranked by their beard weight… and we thought, hey they wont out do us! So, here we are… and yes, while the post was great (see the compilation photo below and the link to the story) we will not stand idly by and wait for others to dictate their beardly decision to us!!
So, before you peruse their findings (which are excerpted and abridged from The Language of the Beard, originally circulated by The Torchbearer Society, London, 1913… with Commentary by Gilbert Alter-Gilbert) and can be found at the bottom of our post… take a look at our Top-3 Poetic Beardos, and of course… they are part of our community!
Did you know that those who rock beards in traditional media and the blogosphere write better than their shaved colleagues? It is true. Why? Simple put: beards are awesome and they impact every part of a person’s life in a positive fashion. Beards - by nature - push expressionism, they give those experiencing writer’s block something to touch that helps them breakthrough to their next genius point, and beards can be used as a distraction - to get the hard hitting questions answered as the interviewee becomes memorized by the facial fuzz of the reporter.
