Mustaches of the Nineteenth Century

Funny Site of the Day -- "The one-stop blog spot for your Nineteenth Century Mustache needs!"

Ooo, I've been looking for some such! What's it all about?

"Many of the following pages have graphic and clear images of the masculine mustache in all its forms, both sublime and grotesque. My intent is not to shock or titillate, but merely to inform on the subject. The Nineteenth Century gave us many things, but above all it was a hotbed of facial hair experimentation and this is but a poor sampling of those many lost forms."

This occasional digest made me flex my stiff upper lip to stifle some giggles. You'd think the mustache would be stuffy, but it's not.

No Pants Day!

Funny Site of the Day -- The first Friday in May is always No Pants Day. How time flies when you don't have a fly.

#1 Frequently Asked Question:

"What in the world is No Pants Day?
No Pants Day is a day where everyone, be they students, respectable businessmen, or cherished community leaders, leave their pants behind. Usually this means wearing thick, appropriately modest boxer shorts, but bloomers, slips, briefs, and boxer-briefs all work as well."

More details on this hallowed event -- say, is there a draft in here? Oh, my bad. I'm not wearing pants. So, what else is new? -- Anyway, there are more details on this updrafting event at the official Website, plus photos of actual people without actual pants.
