Personal: The Horror ... The Horror

Few things are as personally saddening to me as giving up my long-cultivated chin beard. It was just getting long enough to braid. However, a job opportunity came along which required me to shave.

As a matter of fact, the job opportunity is shaving.

It's a long story and you probably had to be there, but the bottom line is that a consumer opinion outfit is paying me to shave, every morning, five days a week, possibly for the next two years, at a rate that, by my calculation, works out to about $80 an hour.

Sure is awful, working for The Man. I've dragged out my "respectable" photo so that people will actually recognize me.
