One of the 17.2 AMI readers, Jonathan Baker, recently found out that he has several painful
ulcers in his stomach. Sadly, this has left him unable to work in either of his two jobs as an international sponge designer and feline nail technician for the past seven
weeks.
But there's been an upside. The time off, while painful, has allowed Jonathan to invest more
time in what really matters. Things like - go figure - growing a mustache,
hating Dave Navarro, and dressing as Sarah Jessica Parker and skipping through Manhattan, all the while
being mistaken for a horse. At the same time, he's using his mustache for good - as opposed to
Joseph Stalin who used his for evil - and Jonathan has started a cause, nay, a movement,
called
Mustaches for Ulcers.
Despite the
well-documented correlation between mustaches and ulcers, Jonathan's also rededicated himself to find purpose in life in recruiting others
to grow and proudly wear the labia sebucula (Latin for "lip sweater") in honor of those of us who have painful ulcers.
Route for Jonathan.
Carry on.
