Effort Mustache 4


	Mark your calendar...APRIL 1ST CURT DAVIS INVITATIONAL MUSTACHE GROWING CONTEST OF PADDLE SPORTS - tons of prizes! Back to Mustache Home Page Archived Mustache Growth April 1st, 2006 - See the original entries! April 9th, 2006 - See the first week of stache growth. April 16th, 2006 - Week two of growing... sleazebag, scuzzball status. April 23rd, 2006 - Competitors have gone completely insane at this point. I'm afraid this contest has degraded the pride and esteem that this great world and humanity has been built upon. People are now doing things that no normal human being should ever consider. Our comments are not absolutely necessary this week since the photos speak for themselves, and the competitor's comments show their maniacal behavior all on their own. That being said, Joey and I were just talking the other day about how this competition has enriched our lives and made us better stewards of the friendships we already have. Furthermore, the new friends we have gained through this mustache contest will be held close to our hearts forever. We genuinely appreciate the opportunity we have been given to meet these fine people and make fun of them for two full months in return for giving them some prizes for making fun of themselves. Amen. Floss your teeth! Fight cavity creeps! A beautiful smile accentuates a healthy mustache. Spencer Cooke, Effort.tv Derogatory comments courtesy of Joey Hall, Deadman Productions 1. Evan and Austin Smith, Father and Son combostacheiation. Pyranha I:3 and Eskimo Kendo - Placerville, CA Austin writes, "Many a slalom paddler styles in a 'stache. The C-1 guys prove that old adage - half the paddle, twice the lip hair. Evan continues his stealth lip growth."* * 2. Ola Lindström, Wave Sport Diesel, Sweden This is some crazy shit right here. I got this email today from this chick. Just read it... "I was very scared to find out that I share a name with a very scary mustached man... Ola Lindstrom... it's creepy.. considering I'm no where near a creepy man with a mustache.. in fact, I'm a HOT chick with no facial hair whatsoever. Anyway.. it was kinda fun to find my name online somewhere, eventhough it's just plain scary.....like from the movie Alive scary..." Ola Lindstrom http://www.myspace.com/olamac Now, the real Ola Lindstrom that we all know wrote... "Hi boys �ĮNow things startend to happend above the mouth.... �ĮIt depends on a secret beverage I drunk in suspect bar yesterday �Įcalled "Frasses blue oyster", damned good drink" La Ola * 3. Andrew Huber, Wave Sport EZ, Burlington, VT * Andrew writes, "So you caved to the UniTomer eh? if I had known threats of physical violence worked so well I would have introduced you to my good friend "Ribbons" McGillicutty long ago. The mustache is his favorite place to shave, and now that he hasn't had his fix in weeks, he's thirsty for blood. If I were you I'd hand over this contest to me before he gets the idea of making his own Reservoir Dogs sequel. You know where to send the gear, and while you're at it, send over your wallets too; Ribbons is getting the DTs, and whiskey ain't free." * Andrew further writes, "... In week one you said I looked like some guy you knew, and when I saw it I said that guy doesn't look like me at all. Well I've found my real doppelganger, it's Jesse "The Devil" Hughes of the Eagles of Death Metal. Seriously, it's uncanny. Here's a side by side comparison for your consideration." 4. Ronald A. Swaggard, Wilderness Systems Pamlico 140, Florence, SC Ron looks a little pissed off this week. And may I add that he look slightly like the namesake of the competition? Mr Curt Davis himself... Are you guys related? Uncle Ron? Nephew Curt? Ron writes, " A few short weeks, and the "Tarantula" Lives!! This thing could almost use a trim. I must admit, however, that a few of the other folks in this thing are making a respectable showing. It's evident that I'm going to have to prove that I've got what it takes to win. Style is everything, now." 5. Patrick Bresnahan, Inazone232, H3....cola, SC and Etowah, NC Patrick writes, " O.K., for those of us who don't where facial hair regularly, we are beginning to be thinned out of the human heard. Just this week I received the 'skunk eye' from several parents while dropping off my daughter at day care. After last week, the SaludaBoyz suggested I go with the "Cheech Marin" stache. Unfortunately, the reaction of the daycare crowd has me fearful of my apparent 'Chester the Molester' look. " * 6. Hartley Barber, Liquidlogic Gus & Perception Full Tilt, Columbia SC * Hartley writes, " This week I wanted to honor Cheech Bresnahan, so I exercised a little with a Mustache Hair Care Product as a darkening agent before shooting this photo to display a flattering imitation of his no nonsense style. ." * 7. Reed Moore, Savage Fury, Asheville, NC What do you mean odd Reed. You look perfectly normal. Reed writes, "Here is a pretty odd picture of me. That's all I have to say about that right now except that things are getting kind of ridiculous. alright. see you."* * 8. Chris Tretwold, Liquidlogic Jefe, Bellingham, WA * Chris writes, "week 3's lesson: The 'stache demands respect!" * 9. Craig Adams, Bliss Stick Scud & Rad, New Zealand * Craig writes, "i'm getting noticed .. just been arrested by these small town facial hair patrolmen.. "crimes against humanity" they said!!!!! what about, my humanity ... freedom of expression... they just laughed ... then connected the electrodes!!! there is a plan to go over the wire to freedom before next weeks photo deadline then stay low and on the run ... till the end of this great challenge but i better play that quiet, cheers" * 10. Israel Putnam, Pyranha 420 bro, Bryson City, NC All these NOC people thought that everyone wanted to know what size they were. I guess when you live in that small of a town you have to brag about something. "Hey man, I'm a (size L)." "Oh yeah, well I'm a (size XL), beat that." Odd people over there at NOC... Israel writes, "(size L) my mustache speaks for itself"* * 11. Zuzana Vanha, Pyranha H3, Bryson City, NC Zuzana, we were not born yesterday. Get rid of the rabbit's foot or be disqualified. Garrett writes for Zuzana, "(size M) -Zuze is out of town, but took her photo in advance... this weekend however, she won US slalom team trials. So congrats to her being the top women's slalom paddler in the US."* * 12. Liz Petty, Dagger Dynamo, Bryson City, NC Is that charcoal? Liz writes, "(size S) "After 3 weeks of Xyience testosterone booster, I am finally growing a 5 O'clock shadow."* * 13. Philip Young, Riot Magnum, Bryson City, NC Again with the size thing. That's not getting you any points. And to have a chance of winning Philip you are going to have to do the mullestache, without a doubt. You do that and do it stylishly and you will very likely be in the top 3. Philip writes, "(size M) "I will win this contest at any costs... do I getextra points for looking another ethnicity?" 14. Garrett Bryant, Liquidlogic Jefe, Bryson City, NC Garrett, I get it, you are a size L, big deal. You guys can't stop can you? Garrett writes, "(size L) "My mustache scares me, but so far the ladies dig it... maybe, I am still hoping... ...anyone want a used car? I seriously have no hope, I can't top cross-dressing or a mulletstache"* * 15. Moffatt Prescott, Liquidlogic Jefe, Columbia, SC * Moffatt Writes, "I have recieved blessing from his Great Highness of Hairlessness. You may now call me Sir MoooStachio. For what it means which, isnt much. Thanks for showing me down Wilsons today Chris, a little scary at times but with your calm cool reassuredness I had a great time. Just being in the immediate vicinty of your powerful bright green/yellow colored Aura recharges my life crystals." * 16. Steve Althaus, Riot Hammer (circa 1998), Raleigh, NC Toilet humor can be tasteful, yes. Steve writes, " I was spending time in my favorite place to think, trying to figure out what to do for this week's shot, and - well here you go"* * 17. Will Johnson, Wave Sport Z, Brevard, NC Again, very nasty Will. Nice nipples use of nipples being shown through a mesh shirt. Very sneaky. Will's friend writes, " Here they are, brah. Will dresses like this all the time, seriously. Until next week... " 18. Tom Sherburne, Shred Ready, Auburn, AL This entry is coming soon... The UniTomer writes, "." Mustache Funerals* - please take a moment of silence to honor the mustaches who have gone to the other side. Raymond A Capone III, Wave Sport BigEZ, Pittsburgh, PA Ray was brave and he strove for dignity and the freedom to grow facial hair and be ridiculed by his friends and people who didn't know him. Sadly, Ray has shaved. We will miss his lip fungus. Ray writes, "Sorry guys, but I shaved after I woke up without anymore respect for myself this morning.... Peace" Mike Nail, Wave Sport Diesel & Jackson 4fun, Black Mountain, NC Mike has gone down with dignity and honesty. Mike, your willingness to fight for your right to grow a stache will not be forgotten, and will echo into the mustache afterlife. Mike writes, "I must withdraw from the contest. It is really hard to talk to a client seriously with them staring at my upper lip, its kind of embarassing. I had to shave it, its gone, im out. Thanks for having the contest..." Matt Fithian, the Academy of Huge Experiences Ewwww! That is a 16 year old mustache if I've ever seen one. Sorry Matt. Late entry last week and no entry this weekend. You are out! Official's call. . Jason Aytes, Riot Astro & Magnum, the Academy of Huge Experiences You are out Aytes. Obviously paddling and higher education are more important to you than a mustache. No love lost on this side of the table. You're fired. Hutch Brown, the Academy of Huge Experiences Hutch, incorrect. Fired. . Scott Wooten, the Academy of Huge Experiences Scott. No soup for you. Also fired. . Mark Pryzbysz, Huge Experiences. You are fired Mark crazy last name guy. * Trip Jennings, Liquidlogic Jefe, Eugene, OR Not sure Trip is with the stache anymore. Haven't heard from him. You are fired Trip. Times are hard. David Hughes, the Academy of Huge Experiences David Hughes you are fired. Stop looking at me all like that all funny looking and stuff. * Back to Mustache Home Page Thanks a ton to Xackers.net and Boatertalk.com for promoting the event. Sponsors: Contest started on April 1st. Email us with any questions or comments at curtdavismustache@gmail.com			Jade Tree is a record label out of Wilmington DE. If you like punk or indie music, Jade Tree is well worth checking out. Some exciting news is that they have re-released three of my very favorite albums in the whole world, by one of the best bands ever, from Richmond Va, AVAIL. 4am Friday, Dixie and Over the James are definitely some of the best punk albums I've ever heard and hold songs that really mean something to me. AVAIL would be high on my recommendation list for any hard core, rock or punk listener out there.
