It's not a Fad..

I'm very impressed the way young guys are keeping their beards.. I really thought it was just a fad so you could say...Beards are growing on me!
This guy has that WTF look on his face as if to say, "Is that burly taxi driver of excessive girth taking a photo of my fine beard with his fancy Canon camera with appropriate zoom lens"?... I was..
Even young boys no sooner have they turned 12 and they're sporting a beard a Lumberjack would be proud of...
