MOVEMBER with Johno

Hi all,

During Movember (the month formerly known as November) I'll be growin a
moustache. That's right, I'm bringing the Mo back because I'm passionate
about changing the state of men's health.

Not sure if I'll get it long enough to become a real long twirly Greek
Style look in a month. I only started growing it on Nov 1.

Seriously, way too many guys around the world are dying everyday from stuff
like this & early detection & knowledge can help some of your best friends
survive & if my lil "baby face" (as my cousin in Greece calls it !) and a
mo can help save a few lives by raising awareness of this cause, I'm all
for it !

Male health is a major issue, did you know:

1. Men are far less healthy than women. The average life expectancy of
males is 6 years less than females.
2. Every year in Australia 2,700 men die of prostate cancer - more than the
number of women who die from breast cancer.
3. Depression affects 1 in 6 men...Most don't seek help. Untreated
depression is a leading risk factor for suicide. Rates of suicide are more
than double the national road toll.

Help me change the face of men's health by sponsoring my mo.

Please go to http://www.movember.com/au/sponsor
, enter
my Rego number which is 39136 and your credit card details. All donations
of $2 and over are tax deductible for Australian taxation resident purposes
but I'll ask the Mo gang about tax credits for non-Aust people.

For your viewing pleasure, I'll be uploading some photos of "da mo" y'all
to my Movember site in my blog.

The money raised by Movember will be used to change the face of men's
health by creating awareness and funding research into prostate cancer and
male depression.

Movember culminates at the end of the month at the Gala Parte where I'll be
parading my Mo on the cat walk for a chance to be crowned the Man of
Movember. If you want to be part of this great night you'll have to purc
hase a Gala Parte ticket for $33.00 (inc GST).

Cheers

/Johnno

C'mon everyone & get involved with this !. I wasn't going to attend the
parade but the fantastic response I've received so far has made me
re-consider & I'll be definitely attending the Melbourne function at
Melbourne's "Metro Nightclub". Even if you have a mo already, you're more
than welcome.

To get everyone into the spirit, here are a few famous mo's to whet your
appetites as well attached
