Happy "World Beard Day"

Today, while celebrating the glories of beards around us, we contemplate an immortal question: Who had the better beard?

Odin?


or Zeus?


Turning from gods to wizards:

Gandalf?


Or Merlin?


Turning from wizards to kings:

Arthur?

Or Aragorn?

Hah! That's a trick question -- Aragorn didn't have a beard. If you run his name through Google, though, you'll be pretty sure he did.

I did sport very bushy sideburns for a while, but after each succeeding baby did his or her best to pull them out, they slowly shortened into oblivion.

When I was in China, they named me 大 鬍 鬚, and it's never been truer. My beard has grown somewhat prodigious in the last few years.
