Willamette Week names Beard Revue the best single-subject blog of the moment!
Best Blogs
Our favorite single-subject blog of the moment is Beard Revue (beardrevue.com), the outlet of Portland designer Michael Buchino’s fascination with all things facial hair. Every day brings more beard news, beard whimsy and beard art —Buchino even curated an exhibition of the latter at the Tribute Gallery in April.
Holy crapola, everybody! THANK YOU, PORTLAND!!!

Each moustache equals about five crayons.
