- I do not recall when my beard finally became full.
Through most of college, all I could grow was a goatee. I suppose, from the evidence,
this was the case at the time this was written.
I'll note that goatee was kind of scraggly at times, as is appropriate at the age,
for a young man with visions of Kerouac, etc.
As for why I had not learned to live with my face, see note 6, above.
