My friend thinks he is smart.
He told me an onion is the only food that makes you cry, so I threw a coconut at his face.

Not sure why but your joke reminded me of this true story:
Many years ago while at my father's uncle's funeral a couple of the old men there told a story about the deceased (nicknamed "Jigs" for reasons unknown). Way back when Jigs was a young man he had an old uncle known for his jokes and tricks. The uncle approached Jigs one day holding a newspaper and said "I'll bet if I put this paper on the floor and I stand on one edge and you stand on the other - you can't push me off." Jigs took the bet. The uncle placed the paper in a doorway, closed the door, then stood on his edge and started laughing. Jigs stood on his edge, punched through the door bare handed and shoved the no longer laughing uncle off the paper - winning the bet.
For me the story is all the better since I only new Jigs as a decrepit old man with hunched shoulders and arthritis.

Abbott and Costello used that (with a handkerchief) -- I'm pretty sure it was in "Lost in Alaska" (1952).

I'm taking part in Movember (again) this year. For those that haven't heard of it, Movember (no that isn't a spelling mistake) is a campaign to raise awareness for men's health issues such as prostate cancer. To take part all men need to grow a moustache during the month of November (hence the name of Movember = Moustache + November).
I'd be very grateful for any donations to this very worthwhile cause. To donate or to just find out more about this wonderful campaign (and so see me looking like an idiot with a moustache) please pop over to http://mobro.co/domburf[^]
Many thanks

Interesting.
I don't think I'll post a picture of mine, since I've been growing it since 21:34 on 10th March 19891 (I have trimmed it every couple of weeks, though so I don't look like a cross between Catweazle and Cap'n Birdseye)
So that would be a picture of me on day 9405...
1: My head was shaved in a packed pub for Red Nose Day 2, after the pub raised £5 for Red Nose Day 1, and I stupidly offered that if it raised £500 for the second they could shave my head. The landlord chipped in the last £40 to annoy me.

I'm doing "No Shave November" myself. I usually have a goatee (technically a Van Dyke) year round. I shaved clean for the month of October so the November beard would really stand out and be of equal growth.
Eleven days in I've just passed the "itchy neck" phase and have entered the "Is he homeless?" phase.

Once went to a homeless shelter to volunteer and they tried to sign me in.

I haven't heard of "No Shave November", but it sounds like a similar campaign to Movember. I'm also at the itchy scratchy stage. In the pat I have had both a beard and a goatee, so I know that this stage will pass lol

I've had a beard and moustache since 1993, but along the same lines...
My wife's best friend has been diagnosed with breast cancer; last week she started losing hair.
Her husband and son went bald in support; my wife accompanied her to get her hair cut: scissors solidarity. My wife in buzzed (maybe 1/4 high).
I joined the husband/son and shaved my head (but not the facial hair) this weekend.
We plan to stay this way until Kathy gets her hair back.

Tell Kathy that my wife's best friend got it too a few years back, and today she is clean and healthy...Give her hope...

My wife started her fight with breast cancer 2 years ago. I planned on shaving my head in solidarity but she asked me not to. Her reasoning - "It's bad enough I have this rotten disease and lost my hair - I don't want to be reminded of it every time I look at you." I didn't argue with her...
Her hair is back and she's cancer free!

Good cause, I've lost 3 friends this year to cancer.

There's a fine line between crazy and free spirited and it's usually a prescription.
I'm currently unsupervised, I know it freaks me out too but the possibilities are endless.

Movember is a campaign that is very close to my heart. My family has been directly affected by prostate cancer, on both my mother and father's side of the families.

1) Already have a mustache
2) Still paying off the bill for prostate cancer radiation treatments so cannot donate at this time.
Good cause though.
The treatments seem to have done what thy should.

And for the record, I:
1. git-cloned the RazorEngine repo
2. changed the System.Web.Razor reference from 3.0.0.0 to 2.0.0.0 (otherwise both were being referenced, 3.0 by RazorEngine and 2.0 by the MVC 4 framework)
3. compiled it
4. Added a reference to RazorEngine from the RazorEngine.core bin folder
And lo-and-behold, I was able to use the RazorEngine to parse a cshtml into a string.
One last note -- when I tried to use WebMail on the host provider, I got a security violation, requiring this fix:
<configuration>
<system.web>
<trust level="Full" originUrl=""/>
Sigh. I feel like I'm playing Whac-a-Mole. Whack one problem, and another surfaces. This should NOT be this hard! (Gee, I think I said the same thing about Ruby on Rails)
So, a couple lessons learned:
1. Don't use NuGet package installer. Build the pieces from the source code directly.
2. Make sure all the System.Web.[crap] assembly references reference exactly the same dll's.
