That comment could possibly be relevant for this thread but with gawd almighty we never quite know! With movies in the tv thread and tv programmes in the movies thread, posts fall where they fall, most days.

400 posts! May the Beard Be with You. Always.
401 posts, 26 billion and three views, and 987 trillion hairs cut off in their prime and washed down the sink. Now being grown back on chin, upper lip, ears, nose, cheeks, eyelids, sideboards, wardrobes, eyeballs, ball-balls - and no 'bye ´bye.

I trimmed my beard back (but not the neckline) like The Great Keach in the one-man show of the Hemingway drama, PAMPLONA.
Watch the trailer, cretins. 
Wow! This is the definitive proof that flying saucers do exist. Ten minutes ago I also trimmed my beard back (but not the neckline). Then I logged on to this FSM place and saw that Jimmy Phelps had done exactly the same thing! Then I watched the trailer, although even if I hadn't watched it, I'd never admit to being a "cretin". I am occasionally a nutmeg though.
I'm not sure that the trailer makes Keach look that great as Hem. It's a bit too actorly, and the beard is a little too subtle for the purposes. Why couldn't they have got Orson Welles?
One thing I noticed when clipping my beard and tash - I use sharp surgical scissors in the vertical manner, in order to trim down the material. And although it's soft to the the touch, like a shopping mall Santa, with every clip the hairs go flying up and around in all directions, like testosterone-powered missiles. Nearly had my eye out.

As one trims the beard, one can watch the months fly off along with all that hair. Perhaps when aging really begins kicking me around, I'll be happy to grow the beard longer in order to cover that sagging chin. You're old, Graham! What do you do?
Not quite at that stage yet, Jim, but I'll let you know once I get there. Curiously, I have been thinking of growing a long, pointy one, not to cover the "sagging chin" (which has still to make an appearance), but to look a bit more "interesting", like a devil-worshipper.

They're all devils, man. Every last one. Except Zeus. He remains awesome to this day, and he's so Olivier in his mannerisms, which makes him the only deity fit for worshiping.
You know what I think? I think you ought to grow that long, pointy beard, though you may want to consider a Richard Harris in The Field look. I'm great at giving advice I would never follow myself, except I would actually grow a Harris-Field beard.
I find that the growing out process, even with its awkward stages, is more interesting than maintaining one desired beard length.
