Mullet Watch

Faithful readers, we've set a new Mullet Watch record: today, we have not one, not two, but THREE mullet sitings all within a twenty-four hour period.  Thank you, faithful readers and mullet watchers for being so vigilant.  We've gone almost two weeks without a siting. I was beginning to think the mullets were in hibernation along with the groundhogs.

The first siting was made by our new co-worker C.L.  She said she was so excited, and couldn't wait to see me to give her report.  This mullet was spotted on the Watterson Expressway driving a rusty Smurf blue Chevrolet Celebrity.  That alone is humorous. The mullet was brown and very long.  She said that the rusty hoopty made her take notice, and she was thrilled to discover that a mullet was driving it.  C.L. also gives us our second siting.  In another first for Mullet Watch, C.L. spotted a child mullet.  She said this mullet was about 3 years old, and blonde.  Not that I doubt her reports, I still questioned the toddler mullet, just making sure it was an actual mullet and not just a tail.  She reassured me that it was in deed a full-grown child mullet. Incidentally, she said that the kid's father is bald.  Just another sad case of the parent living vicariously through their child.

The third mullet siting comes to us courtesy of two-thirds of the R & D department at work, J.M and C.Leg. (Since we have two C.L. mullet watchers, I'll have to differentiate their initials slightly.) Both of these fine mullet watchers have spotted a few mullets in the previous weeks, so they're old hat at mullet watching.  Here's what they had to say: 

I wanted to tell you about the mullet that we just witnessed at Hardee's.  J. M. noticed him first and he is definitely one to acknowledge.  He was a middle aged guy with dark hair and sporting what we like to call the "fuzzy" mullet.  The guy's hair had natural curl and you can only imagine what the rest looked like.   

Mullet count: 11
