Presenting some awesome Desert Bus donators who went the extra, and wholly unrequested, step of shaving themselves as well.

Smeghead shaved his beard off, a fantastic video of which is here.

Edit – Aaron also shaved his head for $50,000… his own brand of chill induced misery can be seen here.

And here is Greg and his no longer mega-beard, and Aaron’s new hairless head.
Fantastic job guys!

$50,000... and then $51,000

So, before we had a chance to do the $50,000 post, we have already hit $51,000!

We’re soooo close to $50,000! Let’s get the rest of the way there, and seal Morgan’s body hair’s doom!

Clearly, you are actually trying to kill us at this point? You are trapping us in a prison made entirely of generosity. How… wonderful.

Who is driving? $30,000 is driving!!

Holy moly people, you are so wonderful it defies words. We’re so excited, happy and blown away by everything you’ve donated.

Thank you!

Kathleen wagered that if we reached $25,000 she would get her usually luxuriant locks cut down shorter than she ever had before. The reverse-mullet, if you will.
