So, some of the guys at the stations have gotten together to participate in the "No Shave November" tradition of going unkempt, but for a good cause. We want to raise a little money for St. Jude's, but we need your help on the rules... please?

Here's the thing, Mario, Jim and I are participating in "No Shave November". Mario and Jim have been shaving their necks...so, I call SHENANIGANS! I mean shaving your neck, or even trimming... wouldn't that be "Some Shave November"?

Here's what Mario had to say on-air when I confronted him about it...

I decided to go to the "No Shave November" source... Noshember.com for the official rules.

The Noshember "No Shave November" Rules

As it was written: "Do not cut the hair at the sides of your head or clip off the edges of your beard." Leviticus 19:27

1) On October 31st, shave your entire face as cleanly as possible. No stubble, no "pre-existing" facial hair. Shave completely.

2) Take a "before" picture.

3) Do not shave or trim for the entire month. No trimming your neck, no shaving your mustache, no shaping your beard.

4) At the end of November we will vote on the most epic facial hair.

5) Noshemberers will be judged by: Listeners

  • Longest
  • Fullest/Thickest
  • The Picasso (Patchy/Abstract)
  • The George "Babyface" Nelson

6) Take your "after" picture.

7) On Dec. 1 you can finally shave!

No Shave November is actually for Men and Women... and here is kind of how it lays out for the month...

Everyone, young and old, male and female can participate in No-Shave-November by following this simple calendar of guide-lines. The festivities shall unfold thusly:

 

November 1:

Razors are stowed, indifference ignited. Noshember begins.

November 1-7:

The week of scratching that itch. Push yourself, control the desire to shave and relieve the itchiness.

First Wednesday:

Itch hump day.

November 7:

Day of Gnashing of Teeth.

November 14:

Finally the men don't look ridiculous (boys may look rediculous).

November 14:

Finally the women do look ridiculous.

Thanksgiving:

Quoth Flan: "Moms and grandmothers just don't understand."

November 27:

Finally the boys or follicularly-challenged do look ridiculous.

November 30:

Photograph day. Take your best hair exhibiting celebration photos. You have truly completed something great.

Dec 1:

Great festival of many razors, shaving commences.

Dec 2-24:

Careful planning and shaping of your follicle resources grown and nurtured above your upper lip.

Dec 25:

Mustache Christmas Morning. The subsequent greatest day of the year. Time to creep some people out.

Let the race begin!

Among No Shave November traditions, perhaps the strongest is the beard and/or leg hair contest (or armpits or whatever...be creative). Lets see who is the fullest, bushiest, and most natural after a month, and then join in a ritual corporate shoring of our hides!

No Shave November Matters!

Another very important Noshember tradition is the causes and charities world wide that it supports. Many of the worlds greatest Noshemberers and Noshember events of our time have been when the people rally around a great cause. Whether collecting funds throughout the month, or just raising awareness, be sure to check out some of the many important issues and charities supported by Noshemberers world wide.

We are doing this to try to raise just $500 for our friends at St. Jude's Children's Hospital and any little bit you can donate is most appreciated... and you can make your donations HERE!

But just for the record... what do you think about the rules? Let us know in this simple poll...
