			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>So the other day I was thinking about my nemisis, the shaving industry.  Running through all the brand names in my mind, like a tormented kid who feverishly pores over his list of bullies fantasizing about revenge, I remembered a brand of shaving cream that my dad would use on the non-bearded parts of his face.  Barbasol.</p>
<p>I remeber the can was decorated in the spiraling strpes of a barber pole, assumingly in an attempt to portray a sense of well-groomed-ness.  I guess it worked on Dad, and I must admit, it did indeed help him keep nicely defined beard borders.</p>
<p>But this is all beside the point.  The point is, having learned the Spanish language to a solid intermediate level, it dawned upon me as I thought of the Barbasol brand name that it has a hidden meaning.  &#8220;Barba&#8221; is Spanish for beard.  &#8220;Sol&#8221; is Spanish for sun.  So essentially the brand name is &#8220;Beard Sun.&#8221;</p>
<p>That conjured up a great mental image that I felt compelled to bring into the world in full glory.  Below I present to you an original piece of art created by me, Coach Adam.  It is, of course, entitled &#8220;Barbasol.&#8221;</p>
