mo.jpg The clouds have opened, and the moustouches are being shaved off. Yet all-in-all it's been a motastic month, with more than $1 million raised for prostate cancer awareness. We're just getting back on an even keel today after our office Movember party which included guests from Ingram Micro, Logitech Microsoft, Samsung and others sprouting foculating for the cause.

phil2.jpg Naturally - the do being hosted by PC World's publisher - there had to be a rating element. IBM's Michael Friedberg (pictured above left) picked up the coveted Best Porn Star Mo category, but it was our in-house mo-man, PC World Account Manager Phillip Albrey (left), who scooped the popular vote to win the Supreme Mo award. Phillip dressed as a building site worker, I'm assuming to express his interest in the construction industry.

Anyhow, it's now just hours until the mo's get shaved off. As fate would have it, a TVNZ crew came in this morning to interview PC World Staff Writer Jan Birkeland about the Kiwi botmaster arrest, so the full Lemmy-out-of-Motorhead glory of his handlebar 'tache got featured on One News at Midday.

Speaking of Jan, after barely a week he's cracked into iYomu.com's Top 10 leaderboard (and is number 9 as I type), so he's now seriously in the running to win the Kiwi-founded social networking sites' $US1 million challenge.

Myself and Jan may or may not have lunch with the iYomu crew next Wednesday, when its PR company hosts its Xmas bash, so I'll let you know how that goes. I suggested the most expensive restaurant I could think of (Clooney), figuring that by now they're either rolling in it, or taking such a 7-figure bath that a big Clooney tab wouldn't get noticed.
