Well, she actually agreed to have her picture taken with me now... 

Beautiful wife...
and beautiful goat you got now!
Speaking as another new guy in the neighborhood, welcome! You totally nailed it with the full goat/sly combo!
Yeah: lookin good. It's a look I wish i could do myself, but my beared just aint got the 'growing' power!!
Love the tailback goatee too... wish I could wear a thick one myself!
Hello Matthew, I know it's late, but welcome to the SBG's.
As you now know this is a great site with an extremely positive and encouraging bunch of guys.
I think the smooth head and full goat combo looks great! I am a big fan of the goatee as well, and have had one in many forms over the years.
Enjoy this great forum Tyler has provided for us, and keep it smooth!
Matthew, you seem like a very cool guy. It's awesome to see a distinguished CIO of a company that does beard competitions. I like the bald/beard look, and in the process of letting the face grow. My girlfriend is the same as your wife, she likes the sly look, but is not big on the beard. Right now, I'm taking advantage of her being out of town to beard it up!!!!
hey matthew: welcome 2 the sly fraternity. gr8 intro... we hope U become an active member of the best site on the internet.
