Banish The Beard: Donate Now!

You know, I love my beard. I love its length, girth and breadth, its unique whispy feel and its oh-so-metal look. I have had it for six years and it completes me. Despite my affection to the little fella under my chin, I am willing to shave it off for charity at LUGRadio Live 2006.

So, this is the deal. I want to raise at least £400 for Amnesty International, but I think we can smash that. £400 was the target for people visiting LUGRadio Live 2006, but I want to all of you people who read my blog either directly, or via Planet GNOME, Planet GStreamer, Planet Advocacy, Planet LUGRadio or the OSNews Galaxy to donate. Lets see how much we can raise – the disaster of my beard’s demise could really help human rights around the world.

So, go and DONATE!

The actual beard shaving will happen when we record LUGRadio Live And Unleashed on the first day of LUGRadio Live 2006. Video will be provided online.
