Today is the last day of the Stache. Despite Skippy’s critique of the Stache (check comments on last posting), I will look back at my 35-day adventure in facial fair. Sure, I didn’t grow a great moustache, but I never expected to. I just hoped to entertain myself and others while raising money for a new home for ImprovBoston. I am happy to say that the theatre met its first benchmark for raising money, and construction is expected to begin soon on the new home in central square. The Stache and your generous support were a major part. This silly little moustache raised around $1,300. That is phenomenal. I hope you all enjoyed the idea of it, this blog, and the execution. Saying goodbye has been tough mostly for my male co-workers. I think deep down every guy wishes moustaches were widely accepted so that men could grow one free of any social stigma. Sadly, these are moustache oppressive times. All week, co-workers have been expressing their regret that the moustache would be leaving the workplace. Last night, someone took a picture with his camera phone. Today, another buddy took a series of pictures with his digital camera. I am glad that it made the workplace a little brighter for a few weeks. So I will shave it tomorrow, take some pictures, and then update this blog for the last time. Thank you so much for your support. Marcelo
