Diary of a Mad Mo
The first sign of manhood and the watermark. Your definition establishes character throughout the universe of man.
Today marks your midlife crisis. As your bearer, your pride and fears percolate at my lips sending roots throughout my body.
You're the cock of the walk. The center of conversation. But you are used to being in the center of things.
You know your power. Your malleable abilities made Ben Stiller a multi-movie star. You can transform the most destitute, sheltered blogger into the next Mystery.
But with all your valor, you have doubts. I can smell them.
As a small startup things were exciting. You were receiving support from all directions and kept growing from a solid foundation. But now look at you. The honeymoon is over, you're an established enterprise.
Decisions need to be made. Do you roam free with no management like the Cincinnati Bengals or is it time to institute a strict Yankee's policy? Are you ready to be introduced to the boss? You've been able to play it cool, but this week things change.
Like a poker player, your boldness may be your weakness.
You put an elegant smile on my face. Is that enough for your uninterrupted growth, the introduction of management or a new startup?
The questions swirl. Your life feels in limbo. The pride, assertiveness yet doubt.
Keep Mo alive, donate now to a good cause.

Movember to Remember: Please Donate
Prostate cancer is not a laughing matter. OK in some cases it is.
But anyway...
Today kicks off Movember (www.movember.com), the month formerly known as November. Movember is an annual charity movement where men lose their facial hair inhibitions and commit to grow and groom a Mo (Aussie slang for moustache) for the entire month while collecting donations for the Prostate Cancer Foundation. Much like the commitment to run or walk for charity, Movember participants commit to grow a Mo.
If there is ever a charity that HHR could get behind (see video in link above), it's this one.
Since Movember’s inception in 2003, almost 200,000 men around the world have sported a Mo and more than $29 million has been raised globally for prostate cancer research.

Today, HHR's (male) team members will join those men.
To donate to HHR's Mo you can either:
Write a check payable to the ‘Prostate Cancer Foundation', referencing my Registration Number 1807316 and mailing it to:
Prostate Cancer Foundation
Attn: Movember
1250 Fourth St
Santa Monica, CA, 90401
All donations are tax-deductible to the extent permitted by law.
The money raised by Movember is donated directly to the Prostate Cancer Foundation which will use the funds for high-impact research to find better treatments and a cure for prostate cancer.
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.
