Ever seen this Simpsons episode? The one where Burns can’t get Speilberg to make his movie, so he hires “his non-union Mexican equivalent!”
And so was born Señor Spielbergo.
Towards the end of the record store days, I was prone to growing an awesome beard. I also wear glasses and enjoy wearing baseball hats. Because of this, and an obsessive love of movies, I was told that I kinda-sorta-in-a-weird way resembled Steven Speilberg.
But not quite enough, so instead my nickname became Señor Spielbergo.
I grew back the Señor Spielbergo beard this year! It’s much more grey. I tricked my wife into letting me grow it back. I told her it was my “playoff beard”.
But, the Rangers were eliminated, so I have to shave it. She told me so. So this is your last look (in 2012) at the Señor Spielbergo/playoff beard! It was an awesome beard. Easily the best since the record store days!

Wait — a full beard for Movember? That’s not right, you have to do that in Decembeard! Although I’m glad he kept it.

Well, it wasn’t really a beard…more of a 5 o’clock shadow. But, by the end of Decembeard it was full-on.

But I mean, what kind? Like has he gone full-on Duck Dynasty? A groomed goatee? A George Michael? Or just nicely trimmed?

Oh sorry! A moustache and beard that he trims back so it isn’t Duck Dynasty, like if you were to grow out your 5 o’clock shadow. no soul patch, or anything fancy. I’m not up on my beard names lol

Sometimes I think the best way to think about beards is in terms of celebrities. George Michael, Duck Dynasty, Creepy Period Joaquin Phoenix, the Santa, the Col Sanders…I know a guy with the Col Sanders. Dead ringer for him too.
