Beard or Not To Beard?

Hmm, that is the question.
Whether ’tis nobler in the mind to suffer the razor burn of a goatee or simply maintain the facial-hair status quo. I am uncertain. I’ve worn this full beard since before I moved down here from Chicago, with a brief time out for a job some time back, and I’ve grown to like it. However, I think it adds years to my face. People see me with the full, gray beard and add ten to twenty years to my actual age. When I was married, I didn’t care, but if I ask a nice lady out and am denied based on an incorrectly percieved age, ah, that would be quite a tragedy. So, I’m debating it. If I weren’t late for church already, I’d post pictures appropriately altered to show the two states and solicit opinions from my throngs of eager readers. (Hey, my ex-wife might even chime in, as I’m almost positive that she still obsessively watches my site.)
Well, maybe I’ll pray about… Or, post the pictures after I get back from church.
