What should we do with TLO's beard ?

[Easy 10]

It's all well and good everyone chipping in to have TLO's beard shaved off, but has anyone given any consideration yet as to what to do with the trimmings ? I understand TLO will shortly be attacking his facial fleece with a Flymo, so lets get some idea's going. I've taken the liberty of making this a poll with a few suggestions of my own, but please feel free to contribute with your own thoughts as well.

Smoke it

 

[Wardy]

Put it in some kind of display case and sell it on eBay.

 

[Hiney]

Make it into a Merkin and give it to the Daft Bints to wear on those winter awaydays

I hope you appreciate the sacrifice involved here. I have one of those embarrassing dimples in my chin - it's a family trait. Believe me, the beard is a better alternative to the Chin Valley.
