Monday morning with Biggie Molls.

This Whiskerino has been unique in that I have had far less time to participate and yet this is the longest I've gone with a beard. I am not sure what has transpired since the last Whiskerino to make me so much more busy, but it has been frustrating that I have not been able to take the quality of photos I'm used to, comment, and dwell in perpetual beard spirit. It has been fun to see some new juggernauts arise after the departure of Whiskerino mainstays earlier in the year.

A massive thanks to Mackle. I hope everyone takes a sincere moment to realize the amount of work that he has put into this. This beast of a website is unlike anything I've ever seen and the amount of fellowship it's spawned is near unfathomable. None of this happens without Mackle. Period.

Glad to have met so many good dotcomrades on this. See you on the other side.

General Lee says:: CLAME for my 2007 original version. Molls is getting big.

johnny says:: to continue with the bad puns a la @rolf bastard, if you are indeed bowing out then this truly is a GHOUL'S NIGHT OUT.

this really is a great shot, as was the 2007, it's a shame there won't be a 2011 where you could get both her and the upcoming brother in there together!

Just Jamey says:: I wish you weren't bowing out. But this is a great way to go out.

General Lee was a great man. Dunno how much you are a parody of him or not. But he was awesome.

You made the top 20 on your way out. Not too shabby.
