David,
I have always admired your beard and your growing capabilities. Sorry to hear you had a health issue that required you to shave it off. How long does it take you to grow your beard out to the length it was back in Carson City?
Strong, I assume you are the 20 yo competitor? I apologize, but I am not familiar with all of the competitors from the US. I have communicated with Jordan, and in the past have communicated with Phil. I knew him back when he first started his terrific beard he has now. Would be interested in seeing your beard and stache as well. Always great to see younger guys appreciate thier beard potential.
Jack,
I am amazed at your beard growth. And at 21. I only wish I had the ability to grow one that long. Mine is long and full, but nothing like that. How long is it?
David, glad to hear you are better now. We haven't corresponded for 2 years. I post as fullbeard on Jeff's Beard Board and FullBeardMA on BCBB. Your beard 2 years ago inspired me to grow longer. I haven't trimmed in 15 months from a 2 to 3 inch start. My beard is now 10 inches off of my chin. I am hoping for 12 inches by end of 2005 and 18 in 2006. Would have liked to go to Berlin but couldn't. Hope I can go to London in 2007 and Alaska if 2009 if held there. So what length is half of 2003 for you David? must be 6 inches or more. Marc

David,
Thanks for your reply. I wish I had the ability to get my bard to that length in 1.5 yrs. I am sure being a judge in a beard contest would be difficult. I am not aware of the judging paramentes, but just seeing all of the differences in beards in one category would make selecting a "winner" very difficult. As I see it, being able to grow and maintain a natural beard makes them all winners. Although I rarely post these days, I am Greg from the BCBB. I'm in the nick Directory
Strong,
I went and checked out your "blog thing" and was equally impressed with your beard. Being only 20, how long have you cultivated such a wonderful beard? The stache is amazing. Glad to see that the love of beards is still active among guys your age, when the goatee seems ever so prevalent. I am 42 BTW, and have been bearded in some form or fashion since I was 17.
jack passion rocks!!
Uhhhhhhhhhhh!! Jpizzle in the hizzle with the bizzle!!! REp AMREICA SON!!! UHHHH!!!
Jack: That is one very nice beard!!
Congrats on 3rd place, Full Natural, in the 2005 WBMC!
Congrats also to the 20yo who took 5th place Full Natural. Wow!
David: I'm heartbroken to hear that you had to shave that trophy beard for a health issue. Sounds like you're making a good comeback. Hope to see you in the 2007 WBMC - Best wishes!

The future is now!!!
Das Wunderkind! With "Passion"! The future of America's beard reputation rests on your shoulders... I'm selling my stock in Gillette and praying that you don't shave.

i am in love with jack passion, the king of cowboy fashion.
congratulations phil
a bright future indeed.
I see that guy sometimes around campus. One time a family of four fell out of his beard.
I find that young lad's beard to be quite frankly the most attractive young beard ive laid my eyes upon in my well earned lifetime. I too am a fond grower of beard and other sorts of hair and i enjoy long walks on the beach. I have an outgoing personality and im not afraid to let out my true emotions if need be. I'm not one to hide in my hair as they say.

I couldn't last that long without shaving, I mean a beard can be the home of maybe some ticks, fleas.
