I know we have at least one member who has enough material to work with, to enter this competition next year! Astro, you could style your beard into a planetary model!
 
Physics news on Phys.org
I think you mean mousse.
 
Awesome find, Lisa.

I definitely think Astro and Aleph should participate in some way, even if it's unofficial.
 
it's not a sport unless you get tested for doping

I wonder if they have a Rogaine testing program.
 
That moose is awesome.
 
That guy is my new role model.
 
This one is pretty cool

I bought some bottles of shampoo lately and they had free hairspray. I was wondering what to do with them until this thread...I think I'll donate them!
