Ranchette, snickering at you guys' for your dark sense of humer.
I did find the beard thing interesting.
My mom used to tell me that beards were a sign of rebellion and disrespect.
I knew this stemmed from the hippie days and after that period passed I used to ask why it was still an issue.
I never got a satisfying answer.Lark, this explaination is better than any I've heard in the past.But I just think it all boils down to Power and Control issues as the main reason beards are still a no no in most Congs in the USA.Ranchette
