When we talked to Tycho a couple days ago, he said that $50 000 would make a good goal . . . but now that we’ve left that far behind, $55 000 is in sight. Can we reach that astounding goal? Can we press on towards 60? Will our bus ride go beyond tomorrow?

Only you can decide – FOR THE CHILDREN!

Here’s a selection of the de-beardening pictures we took of Paul for exceeding our donation total from last year.

We had to invent a new cheer, because we don’t want to play anymore, but it is for the children… Boo-ray.

Solidarity Shaving

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
