I did see some early studies that suggested with increased sexual stimulation, the beard can grow faster!

So that can keep our OP warm!

Apperantly shaving a beard is like washing your car, but instead of rain, the temperature drops 25 degrees.

It was 32 degrees here (north east Florida) when I woke up this morning -- I seriously debated calling in / taking a sick day, 'cause crawling out of my nice, warm bed & into a shower seemed like cruel & unusual punishment. Alas, I am too much of a Do-bee (damn Romper Room & their brain washing of me when I was 5!), and shivered my way into the office.......only to find that myself & one other person were the only people who made it in out of our 7 person team.

... it used to take me hours to trim my beard (to my satisfaction) with scissors and razor.
.
It was a dreaded chore and I would allow the beard to grow quite long.
.
Friends thought it strange that I always seemed to trim it in the dead of winter (in places
like Michigan and Pennsylvania).
.
What would happen is that I would be looking down and zip my beard up into the zipper
of my winter jacket.
.
.
.
Could be worse (thinking genitallically as I so often do).
.

Hmmmm... probably not much of a market for battery-powered penis-trimmers.
