Project Beard

User acceptance testing on Beard 1.0 recently came to a conclusion.

Most commonly heard complaints were "It's so thin on the sides" and "It makes you look fat." (Editorial note - the beard doesn't make me look fat, the fat makes me look fat).

Despite numerous complains, the main objective, keeping my face warm against the Buffalo winter during the Christmas week visit, was successfully met.

Recommendations for next year (Beard 2.0):

1) move project start date up two weeks (planned start date 11/15/2005).

2) find an easier way to dispose of the beard once I'm done with it (I ended up making this face a lot).
