This was my Facebook status message on March 29:
Jake de Grazia likes places with high beard- and hairdo-focused photojournalism potential.
Joey Headset, the man responsible for this piece of Carrot Project content, commented:
Then why aren’t you at SxSW? SO MANY BEARDOS!
And I replied:
At PyCon, dogg. Geekier. Hairier. Pretty much the place to be.
I found out today that my wish was a dude named Andy’s command.
And, apparently, Carl’s beard was part of the project.
Thank you Alex. You unknowingly introduced me to The Beards of Python. And I much appreciate that.

At this point I think Carl is winning the “beards of the carrot project” race. Unless of course other contenders wish to step up to the plate.

I’ll step up to the mustache plate. If there is one.

Jake- stay with the clean shaving look- Do not grow a mustache- Your boyish good looks are at least a quarter of your charm ;-)

Hahahahahahahaha. Well, Sarah, your objection to the mustache places you firmly in agreement with every female I know but one.
My favorite moment of the short but exhilarating Mustache Era was when I walked into my cousin Lily’s apartment in NY, and she led me into the living room to meet her roommates…
“Hey, everybody, this is my cousin Jake,” she said. “He doesn’t usually have a mustache.”

I’m rocking a beard, but nothing on the Carl scale. I have trimmer.
