Because I can't grow a moustache myself...

...tho I could draw one on UXG style...

Most of the coworker boys in technical operations are participating in the month of Movember. In order to increase prostate cancer awareness, they are growing moustaches (they're now known as Mo Bros). Since I can't grow one, but wanted to encourage my coworkers looking silly, or like perverts, or like 70's porn, I've joined as a Mo Sista.

Prostate cancer doesn't get the same awareness (except for at the grocery store apparently), because it's one of those 'shhhh, don't talk about it' things. It's a good cause...please help.

Did you know:

- Prostate cancer is the most common non-skin cancer in the US with one in six American men developing the disease and more than 28,000 men dying of the disease every year.
- African American men and those with a family history of prostate cancer are twice as likely to develop the disease and should have regular annual testing starting at 45. All other men should commence testing at 50.
- Prostate cancer is 90% curable if detected and treated early.
