If God had a bucket list, it would simply read "Jim's Mustache."

I have only one comment: I'm jealous.
That very first take changed everything, much like that first kiss.

“When Jim enters a room his mustache is always addressed before the man.” It demands that sort of respect.

From a man that appreciates a stellar mustache, does Jim’s mustache have a name? My Marines gave mine the name “Magnum” after the 80’s hit TV series Magnum PI. They think I look like Tom Sellek. If it carries no name, it should be up to us to come up with one.

Welcome Sir! Very much appreciate your service!

Jim's mustache has won the World Heavyweight Arm Wrestling Championship, bench press, and sky diving competition(sans parachute), all in the same day.

Thanks for the warm welcome guys. It’s great to be here, the site, not Afghanistan. I found it most suitable that my first post on your site would be in the forum about Jim’s epic mustache. I can only hope when I reach the same ripe old age, that my upper lip will be graced with the same amount grandiose royalty.

After a routine checkup, researchers have found a new species living on Jim's upper lip. It's a tiny, blind, mammal closely related to a common mole. It's reasoned that the animal's blindness is from the total lack of light present in it's environment. The researches are in awe of Jim's mustache, but fear it could one day block out the Sun.

That's it for today......

People often wonder how Jim became a spokesperson to report on conditions when there is a forest fire. It turns out that he was working with a fire crew on a big fire one day and unbeknownst to him or those around him an ember had jumped the line and landed in his mustache. It was at about this time that the higher ups were thinking that Jim might be a good candidate for the position of spokesperson and they pulled him from the line to update some reporters for the 6:00 news.

Well, it was during this live broadcast that they began to notice smoke coming from Jim's mustache. Jim, thinking quickly, ran over to a horse trough that was filled with water and dunked in his head thus extinguishing the incipient fire. The story was a big hit on the news and Jim became a hero for single-handedly putting out the Great Mustache Fire of '78. The higher ups were so impressed with the way that he handled the situation that he was promoted to permanently become the spokesperson for forest fires over many areas in the western U.S.

Oh man, this is all classic.

The biblical tale of Samson's hair is loosely based on a time that Jim trimmed his mustache.
