Aye Aye, the 10th of July!I only wish more words rhyme with July, but with my recent dive into pirate literature this fits fine.
As many of you know, I was recently promoted to the level of Transportation Engineer 2 within the WSDOT. Also, I had applied for two positions in the SDDOT (the bridge office and the local programs office). Well, the 3 interviews I had for these positions all had one thing in common: I had a goatee. I had trouble landing a job out of college, I received many rejection letters. But since growing the goatee, I am 2 for 3 on interviews. Could this all have been avoided? Did my goatee make me look more distinguished? Or did it strike fear into the hearts of those interviewing me? What do YOU think?

My goatee also seems to have brought me much luck recently in many areas. In addition, it also helps project the image of a very evil, very depraved, quite mentally unstable scientist. Which I am. For some reason that seems to get you a lot of grants from the Government... A toast to the goatee club!
My goatee, on the other hand, has not brought me any particular manifestations of luck. If anything, I feel that I have been particularly unlucky as of late, although that may just be due to extenuating circumstances in my life right now.
