March for Mustaches

You might see a lot of facial hair around the neighborhood on Sunday -- the American Mustache Institute will be leading the Million Mustache March from the Capitol the White House at 2pm as it seeks adoption of the Stimulus to Allow Critical Hair Expenses (the STACHE Act).

The act would provide a $250 annual tax deduction for expenditures on mustache grooming supplies.

While it may be appropriate that the march is occurring on April Fool's Day, the cause it supports is a real one: for each supporter either marching or showing their support at StacheAct.com, H&R Block will donate to Millions from One, which provides clean drinking water to people in need.

The march will conclude with a post-march celebration at Cap City Brewing Company (at 11th and H) with a performance by the appropriately mustachioed band, the Flavor Savers.
