Mullets

I've been searching for the ultimate mullet for a long time now, and each time I think I find it, someone comes along to trump it. I first thought I had found the ultimate champion in the German engineer that was in Korea for about a month in mid 2005. He had a severely short almost military style cut, and then a blond mullet down to his lower back.

Champion number two was the photographer at Matt Delaney's wedding. It wasn't as long, and the top and sides weren't as severely short, but it was black hair (Korean, go figure) with blond streak throughout. My first thought was that he had gone out and killed a not so small furry animal and used it's pelt for a scalp warmer. Anyone who was at the wedding will vouch for this.

I met the new champion while leaving work this morning. I finished class five minutes early, and got to the entrance right when the bus loads of workers arrived. Then, out of the crowd, my eyes became riveted to a blond masterpiece. First of all, Koreans look really stupid with bleached blond hair. Secondly, this was a female mullet, which always knocks it up a few notches in my book. It was just a large frizzy mass of hair on an old ajumma with bad skin and WAY too much make-up. I think the fact that she thought it made her look good is what propelled it to my new number one. I frantically tried to get my camera out to take a picture, but by the time it was set up, she was gone, and I think security would have tackled me if I went sprinting back into the offices waving and shouting. I'll try to finish early on Friday as well to set up a picture of the magnificence.
