I thought those of you on FB you might want to swing by and say thanks, friend them, or whatever it is you are supposed to do on FB. The poor CCFA have no idea what they are getting into
I was just going to post this...you beat me to hit Heis!
Sorry. FB is your department. From now on I shall defer
No problem! I was just excited to spread the news!
Beautiful! You know if Jimi was still with us, he would definitely be down with the Mustache Movement
Of course! He would have such a gorgeous stash. He was a genius (musically and otherwise), much like a few other people we know I would pay big bucks to curl my fine, straight (scalp) hair like his!!! It might look a little strange in blonde though. I need to go spend some time with my iTunes library now... At least it's 32 days, and not 27. That would have really sucked
Heisenberg,
Coups you tell me how much has been collected inception to date that will be donated to the Wisconsin CCFA chapter? I have an idea that could potentially generate enough direct contributions to them (on the mfc's behalf) to match the itd amount.
Lemme know please.

Here's the sketched proposal. Since there is now a dedicated charity (CCFAW..stoked it's dear to Mike) that will be the beneficiary of stache dosh I want to donate a signed Mike McCready Baseball to the cause but there are some conditions...
To do this, I would need at least 10 people to agree to donate $40 DIRECTLY to the CCFAW chapter on the MFC's behalf. Direct donation channels are apparently being worked out. If this doesn't get worked out, I am sure a personal check direct to them would work just fine. Once donations are confirmed (tbd on how to do that and again there would have to be enough dedicated interest to generate at least $400 from this) one of the confirmed donors will get a signed Mike McCready baseball and a super tyt, locable display case, shipped, anywhere in the world on my dime.
The ball is in this grouping (the other three have a home) I am donating mine
here is a photo of the new display case I am including with the ball
There were only 150 of these balls signed and I have not seen a single one trade on any auction sites. I think they are pretty elusive and I am confident that if I put one of these up on EBAY I could get $300 for it.
If there are enough people (10) that are committed to doing this (If someone donates $80 they could two chances to win etc. so it doesn't have to be 10 people necessarily, just a minimum of $400 commited) then for each $40 you would have a chance to get the ball and case/shipping. The winner would be determined by whoever is closest to guessing the last two digits of the DOW at closing bell on a pre-determined date. If there is a tie (say last two digits of Dow Jones are 29 and one person guesses 19 and another 39) the person with the number BELOW the CLOSE number would win the tie break. Anything after the decimal point is not factotred.
If you all think this could be done, woot.
If interested please confirm here. Once ten people (or $400 is committed) I will close the door on new donors so as to not dillute those who jumped in on this first. So it will be a first come first served in incriments of $40 and closing at $400.
I will leave this offer open for a week and if $400 isn't "in" to do this by Tuesday August 9th at 3pm PST than I will keep my ball.
If this does fly, looks like the MFC will have almost reached $1,000 going direct to CCFAW.

Awesome D...Thanks so much. I hope it arrives in time. The international orders do take some time, so stay on top of it by keeping in close contact with the company who is producing the shirts. They will take good care of you.
OK mustachers, time to put your money where your mouth is! Many of you has asked for a way to make online donations without having to pay the full price of one of our shirts. Well, our friends at the CCFA have set up an online donation page for us. The link below is the main page and all you will need to do is click on any of the highlighted links to make an actual donation. They were also nice enough to include a link to our merch store so if you click on the shirt...that is where you will end up. Here is the link and thanks again for all your participation...

Thought this might make the world easier for those of you that might have questions, concerns, ideas, etc. that you would like to direct my way in relation to the PJ20 "Don't Gimmie No Lip" Mustache Movement. You can still PM me if you prefer, but you can also now email me at

Also, if you all are up to it, I would like pics! Pics of your staches, pics of your shirts, pics of you in your shirts, pics from the festival, pics of Bambam defacing public property, etc. Pretty much anything related to our little movement. Please send them as attachments to the above email address as opposed to (or in addition to) posting them on the thread because I will need full resolution (or as high quality as possible) photos for something I am going to try and put together once this whole thing is said and done. I will do my best to stay on top of emails but bear with me if it takes time to get back to you. Thanks

It looks to me as if the donations go to the national chapter and not the Wisconsin one. Is that correct?
I'm not sure but I believe you are correct. I don't think it was possible for our contact to set up a direct online donation specifically to her chapter. However, I could be wrong. That was all set up on their end and I have nothing to do with it. Either way, they are all under the same roof and all the money goes to the CCFA.

Hi Guys, just thought I'd throw this up as another way to donate to our friends at the CCFA. Our contact who has been working so hard to help us with the Mustache Movement is running in an event in Vegas this December. She is trying to reach a goal of $3,600 so if any of you are feeling generous and want to contribute to her cause, here is the link...
