Open Question II: Not Nearly As Deep
Except for a 3-month stint in 2001, I've had this goatee for eight years. But now I'm thinking about its future. Should it stay or should it go?

Give your face a chance. Shave the Goatee!

Hm, that's a tough one. You've had that goatee for as long as I've ever known you so I can't quite imagine it (even with the photographic aid you provided earlier). How long would it take to grow back if you hated it? Probably not very. I say, go for it. Pull a Jed. Just make sure Steffey's not around.

I don't even have to "hmm." I like the goatee! (Then again, if you've seen photos of my last 3 boyfriends over the past 9 years, you'd understand I'm highly biased)

Shave the chin directly below the mouth, leave the rest untouched. Then get your photo taken in b&w in one of those period costumes, like as a Russian prince or western ranch-hand.

good call.. I also thought about growing a mustache all the way across the face - the Chester A. Arthur look - but my focus group rejected it soundly.

I have two words for you, my friend: fu manchu.

I endorse the shaving project. But then again, I was there with my support in 2001, too. ;) Maybe keep the moustachey? :)

see if Gillette will give more money to the BPL if you shave (a la Johhny Damon). :)

I am a saggitarius, blunt. I do not think you will look good without it. I could be wrong...I can't remember what you looked like without it. How about posting pictures of yourself without one or else how can we judge properly? Just a mustache would be too gay 80s. I think long sideburns are cool...

I vote against. Hell, I'm thinking of growing mine back, thanks to the influence of goatee-toting individuals like yourself.
Besides, I spoke with G.W. and he wants you to shave it off.
