The end of Movember has arrived, so to commemorate the event, I designed and took pictures of some seriously kick-ass facial hair (as seen on my Movember donation page). Actually, I’ve heard mixed reviews from people who like it to people who don’t think it’s my look to simply “Oh my Lord.” (You know you want to see it for yourself…)
If some of you are still willing to open your wallets/purses/bags o’ gold, donations of any amount are being accepted until Dec. 7th and the proceeds are split between the Prostate Cancer Foundation and the Lance Armstrong Foundation. Thanks to everyone for your generosity and for limiting negative reactions to “Oh my Lord” as opposed to “I’m going to saw that stuff off his face using the jagged edge of a credit card!”
What’s the difference between donating to you and donating to your team? And don’t say “Well, if you donate to me it goes straight to my bank account and if you donate to the team it goes to charity.”
If you donate to me, the money still goes to charity, but I’ll know my facial hair and I made a difference, I’ll feel awesome and my ego will swell with pride.
If you donate to the team instead, the website won’t notify me that a donation was made under my name and I’ll end up thinking that I tried to make a difference, but the team did pretty well, so it’s all good.
In either scenario, the person making the donation gets to feel all warm and fuzzy inside while kicking cancer in the balls and in the ass (proverbially speaking).
Let your ego swell with pride!
I would have posted a thank you earlier today, but as soon as I got the donation notification, I think something popped…
Not quite sure what “something popped” means… I hope it’s something funny that’s just over my head and not like some sort of injury.
Anyway, no problem! It’s great to help a good cause in even the smallest way. And cancer is just wow… it’s one of those things that seemed so foreign when I was a kid and now it’s just everywhere… so, if we can “kick it the ass” enough times then hopefully we’ll get rid of it.
An ego can only swell so much before the person’s head explodes!
