• Viral campaigns

  Since we began this lunacy known as the American Mustache Institute, I have been amazed at the new world order of media as powered by Web 2.0.

  November's Q&A with USA Today columnist Craig Wilson has me thinking about little people.

• A good week for lip hair

  These past six days, at least in my world, have been good ones for the mustache. Last Sunday, I was fortunate enough to visit historic Lambeau Field in Green Bay, Wisconsin, to watch the Packers top the Washington Redskins. It was an experience that any...

• Should we listen to "First" spouses?

  First Lady Laura Bush had an opinion piece published in the Wall Street Journal this week.

• Intolerance

  I was watching a favorite flick the other night - the third installment of the Austin Powers trilogy. It's the one with Michael Cain, who as an aside I believe either he or Gene Hackman have been in every movie made since 1965. Cain had a great line...

• Music supporting lip hair

  Music acts are a dime a dozen, but every so often, something comes around that's really worth a listen. Of course, something similar was said about the ill-fated 1980s television program Solid Gold, but who's to judge. Ah Marylin McCoo, where...
