Washington Teacher Shaves Beard Thanks to Osama Bin Laden's Demise

It has been almost ten years since our country was plagued with fear on a day in September that no one, American or otherwise, will soon forget. A school teacher in Washington remembers that day all to well, and back in 2001 found himself so immersed in watching the then-endless news updates, that he had neglected to shave. Gary Weddle was a substitute teacher back then, and inspired by his crisis-born stubble he vowed to continue his no-shave policy until America’s newly most wanted man, Osama Bin Laden, was captured. Mr. Weddle never thought that his vow would approach the ten-year mark, but kept his vow alive until the end!

“I spent the first five minutes crying and then I couldn’t get [the beard] off fast enough,” explained Gary Weddle following his much-overdue shave on Sunday night. The emotional moment for Gary serves as a symbol of the grief many Americans have harbored for the past ten years, and of the closure Sunday night’s news of Bin Laden’s demise granted us all. Closure is good, especially when it allows your freshly-shaven face to see the light of day for the first time in ten years! Gary’s wife was especially happy to hear the news and to see her husband “looking ten years younger!” And though nowhere near the magnitude of the closure felt by our country on Sunday, closure is something that a well-executed move can help you achieve as well. Your movers here know that everybody moves for different reasons. Just like Gary Weddle vowed to grow his beard without so much as a trim until Osama’s capture, your professional movers here vow to give you an outstanding relocation experience whether you are moving on good or somewhat difficult terms.
