In past years -- generally on Earth Day -- the American Mustache Institute has demonstrated its interest in environmental stewardship.
Indeed, our annual greening tips are the thing of lore.
Now, as part of our award winning series of Monthly Mustache Interviews -- we interview one of the few clean-shaven slobs we've allowed to access our reach: Forbes magazine writer Chris Steiner, who has a new book out called "$20 Per Gallon" about the impact of rising fuel prices on American culture.
Despite his seeming hatred of the Mustached American lifestyle, it's an interesting read, even for those of us who do not read.
Check out our interview with Steiner here.
Carry on.
About afroman
The name “Abe Froman” is most commonly recognized as the ubiquitous and unseen character who’s identity is briefly assumed by actor Matthew Broderick in the film “Ferris Beuller’s Day Off.” However, Dr. Abraham Jonas Froman is much more.
Dr. Froman, a Capricorn, began his career with AMI as an intern, and after receiving his certification in nuclear mustacheology in 2006, transitioned his role into the organization’s Director of Logistical Intelligence, focusing on research, government relations, intelligence gathering, grass roots advocacy, and song writing.
On October 25, 2008, he ascended to the role of Chief Executive Officer.
“I am honored to assume the chair held by Drs. Snor and Perlut previously,” Froman said. “The Mustached American people need leadership, and I pledge that AMI, under my stewardship, will continue to provide it at a time when it is so desperately needed.”
Dr. Froman has said that his future goals for AMI are to create satellite campus’s overseas and to develop an annual event, to be known as "The Million Mustache March," each year in St. Louis, concluding under the world’s largest mustache – St. Louis’ Gateway Arch.
Froman formerly lived in the Chicago area where he ran a museum dedicated to the "Karate Kid" series of films starring the indefatigable Pat Morita.
As Abe likes to say, "One can never tire of Pat Morita."
Dr. Froman is also a periodic contributor to joesportsfan.com.
