BREAKING NEWS: The End of an Era - Goodbye Mr. Moustache

Today, after great deliberation and sadness, I cut off my moustache.  It was a difficult decision, yet knowing that networking opportunities and important events await in the near future, I decided to say goodbye to Mr. Moustache.  We were together when I first arrived here in Singapore through the hostels phase, through Malaysia, many meetings, and a convention.  Through the highs and lonely times alike - there was a moustache.  On monkey quests and jungle hikes - there was a moustache.  But now, that moustache is no more.

I have always been an unfortunate product of the wrong generation.  My fascination with sports, history, and especially music would have been better matched in decades of the prior generations.  Not to be missed in the allure of prior generations, is the popularity of the moustache. 

It became a presence in my life, attracting all kinds of attention at work by friends, colleagues, and strangers alike.  But like all good things, this moustache's days came to an end.  The world may never see such a magnificent moustache again, at least not until I turn 35 when it is socially acceptable to adorn one. 

Mr. Moustache RIP
