It's 22 days into November as I write this and I only got my Movember profile up yesterday - you can look at it here - so I am now out of stealth mode when it comes to Movember.

But what is Movember? In short, it's about Men's health. We're growing our moustaches out to show support and, yes, attract donations. No, you don't have to donate on my page, but doing so woud help the Mo Drupal team - we're 5th in the United States as far as donations, and the Mo Drupal community wouldn't complain about being able to help more through our use of our faces.

22 days have passed already. Have you donated? And if you're a man, have you checked out the site to learn more about your health?

C'mon. Spend a few moments and learn more about how to take care of yourself a little better.

Personal

I've long advocated the need for all of the things mentioned above in the WiredWisconsin issues all over the world. Now that I'm back in my home state of Wisconsin, it seems appropriate that I continue advocating these things in the backyard of KnowProSE LLC: Wisconsin. In Beloit, Wisconsin, and the greater Janesville area, unemployment is at the highest levels in the State of Wisconsin - and it would be good to see this area, despite GM plant closures, move forward and thrive instead of decay. Innovation, job creation... these seem like positive steps to take after Green Bay won the 2011 SuperBowl. After all, Wisconsin has awesome beer, awesome cheese and awesome beef. And we can be awesome at a lot more.

Get involved. Make things better, wherever you are. And if you're in Wisconsin, this post is a big hint as to where you can get involved. WiredWisconsin.org.
