I’ve been having trouble waking up early as of late, so I’m attempting to solve the problem by making this my alarm song — “The Ballad of Davy Crockett” I know its not the most politically correct song in the world, with lines like the following.

He give his word and he give his hand
That his Injun friends could keep their land
And the rest of his life he took the stand
That justice was due every redskin band.
Davy, Davy Crockett, Holdin’ his promise dear!

From the full version

But there is nothing more motivating than waking up to the story of a man who “killed him a ‘bar’ when he was only 3”. What have I been doing with myself this whole time? I have to get it together and get out of bed!

The Trustworthiness of Beards

A chart of types of beards moving from left to right in trustworthiness, to less. This focuses on the Colonel Sanders beards which is considered questionable
The Colonel Sanders approaching a state of questionable trustworthiness.

I find this to be completely hilarious. As a professionally bearded man, its reassuring that many of my friends, associates and myself are considered to be amongst the most trustworthy. It is disconcerting though that some of my friends fall somewhat farther down the line. I’m looking at you John Harrison, or should I say Colonel Sanders.

By the way, who keeps a “Neck Beard”, and why?

Here is a another commercial for mitto we made. This one was absolutely hilarious to make.

I’m conflicted. From a purely comedic point of view, this is pretty funny. From the perspective as a faithful member of the Armenian Church, this is very very sad. The faith of seventeen centuries, boiled down to slapstick comedy. Unfortunately, its our own fault for being so inexplicable to the world’s eye.
