Day 13 – Movember 2007

For those of you that are culturally challenged or missed one of the best cult Gen-X films of the 80s, that’s Principal Ed Rooney on the right (no, not the left you smartass!), from Ferris Bueller’s Day Off. Apparently, some people believe there’s a similarity if my Facebook wall is to be believed!

Bid today! Have a laugh tomorrow! As seen on eBay!

Ever walked about the streets of your town during November and noticed that all the males about look like extras from dodgy police dramas from the 70s?

Ever thought – that’s a terrible looking Mo, why doesn’t he grow a “insert style here”?

Well, here’s your chance!
To raise funds for the Prostate Cancer Foundation of Australia and Beyond Blue, I am putting up for auction the ability to style my MO! Live vicariously through my moustache for the month of Movember and decide whether it’s the Merv Hughes, the Errol Flynn, the Tom Selleck or the Ned Flanders that gets the nod.

The 2006 Mo

On Movember 1st at 12.01am, I will have a clean shave. For the next 15 days, I will not shave accept, underneath the jawline on the neck to have some sort of clean look. On day 16, I will style my MO in the design of your choice and further cultivate it for the month of Movember. For the duration of Movember, every second day I will post a picture of my Mo on Flickr and to this site. At the end of Movember, I will send a 5″x7″ autographed colour photo print to you showing the completed look. On December 1st, I will shave the MO off and return to my normal clean look! See the listing on ebay!

Auction certified by the Movember Foundation. See the auction listing for further details.

We’re pink today for Pink Ribbon Day. Be kind to all those volunteers on the street you see today!

Once again I’m running in The Lap – a fundraiser for the Murdoch Children’s Research Institute and I’d like you to help me raise funds.

The event is on Friday, September 14 from 7am to 5pm in Martin Place, Sydney. I haven’t finalised when I’ll be running yet, but I will shortly – so you can pop past and give me a wave!

You can sponsor me online today. Remember all donations over $2 are tax deductable (in Australia).

Woolworths is donating its entire supermarket profits on Tuesday January 23 to Australian farming families in need.

So, if you need to grocery shop that week, make sure you do it on this day to assist the Country Women’s Association and research into sustainable farming practices.

More information here. Woolworths are to be congratulated on this. Now, I’d love to see more of corporate Australia putting their hand in their pockets and helping out where it’s desperately needed.

Movember 2006 was an amazing success!

Over $5.3 million was raised in Australia and $750,000 in New Zealand – not to mention an enormous amount of awareness for men’s health issues.

Check out the 2006 International Man Of Movember. *shudder*

David St. John who raised the most amount of money as an individual has donated his prize – a trip for two to the South of France and the ultimate Formula 1 driving experience back to be auctioned on ebay with all proceeds going to Movember. Bid now on ebay!

Thanks to all that sponsored me – I managed to crack the thousand mark this year – $1200 to be precise. Check out the growth from this year, but for now… it’s until next year!
