Movember madness

Colin, my son's hockey coach, is no stranger to facial hair. Bushman beards, metrosexual trims, two-day scruffs. He's had 'em all. Always makes my own Alabama swamp look seem ragged. And grey.
But now Colin's up to something new, whisker-wise.
In honour of a co-worker diagnosed with prostate cancer, Colin's decided to join the league of men growing moustaches for November - call it Movember - as a fundraiser for men's health. We're talking prostate and testicular cancer. Yes, I said testicular. The kind Toronto Maple Leafs assistant coach Keith Acton didn't want to talk about.
Colin's sent a group email to all his hockey families to publicize his campaign and encourage donations. I've decided to donate the Movember proceeds from this blog. To do that, I need readers to visit often and click on the ads. That's it. Nothing to buy (unless you want to), just click for cancer cash.

Here's a shot of Colin as he looked in October. Wonder if his new 'stache plan is the Salvador Dali look.
