Obligatory selfie of me in my hat and kick-ass beard

Wife hates this beard style so I’m down to stubble and currently resemble Aleister Crowley. No, I’m not kidding. It’s kind of creepy.
Given that I rock this beard style and have a late 1800s costume, I’m thinking of doing the X-Treme X-Men’s General James Howlett as my next costume. Just need golden claws (Adamantine instead of Adamantium). Adamantine – a mythical metal of the Greek gods and what Hercules’s throwing hammer/mace was made from. The word Adamantine is where we get our word "adamant" meaning steadfast, absolute, unbreakable, and unshakable. Fun fact, at one time diamonds were almost called Adamantine due to their hardness (a 10 on the Mohs scale).
… I am *such* a geek… *facepalm*
