    Interesting that some ladies of the roman empire were able to grow great beards themselves, Aelia Flaccilla got in on the trend.

    No this isn't my coin, just thought it was amusing when I saw it on Vcoins, it's a die cud or broken die.

    They are not very common in the developed world due to proper iodine intake.

    I vaguely remember seeing that dude at the border (he seemed like a good guy)

    I am familiar with those, one of my moms old co-workers from decades ago had one, ended up dying due to it.

    And I complain about my hyperhidrosis:confused:, always worse.
