The Mullet
The MULLET. Business in the front. Party in the back.
Truly, a hairdo that is a testament to no fashion sense, NASCAR fans and the redneck way of life. We all saw the rise to popularity of this misunderstood fashion statement in the 1980's. However, the Mullet may have fallen from grace, but it is still far from gone! I was reminded of the Mullet's presence and hold on America just the other day.
I was out and about in Minneapolis with my camera when I happened to walk behind a man who was sporting (what I could tell) was not JUST a Mullet, but a fashionable Mullet. (Check out the pics below for yourself.)
At first I couldn't believe my eyes ... a Mullet. After the initial shock (and a few giggles) I studied it a bit further and was amazed at the level of care that went into this man's Mullet. As you can see from the photos you will notice the 'perm' of the back of the mullet, while the top and front of the hair is neatly combed with an ample use of hair gel. I have to say I was amazed at this 'classed up' version. Could this be the Mullet for a new millennium? Well, probably not. It's still a disaster of a hairdo (in my opinion) the equivalent to a train wreck on someone's head. I wanted to look away. I NEEDED to look away, but I couldn't ... I JUST COULDN'T!!
Well to the gentleman in the below photos. I'm not sure if you are oblivious to your own hairstyle, hanging on to the past 'glory years', or simply just trying to resurrect a fad long gone. But my hat is off to you, literally.
So to the readers out there. What do you think of Mullets? (Underrated hairdo OR train-wreck fashion trend?) And is there a specific kind of mullet this guy is sporting? I'm far from an expert. Post up your comments.
The Fashionable Mullet
(A Mullet for the modern-day man?)
A Lady, a Man and his Mullet.
(Three is no longer a crowd.)
Nothing sets the mood quite like a Mullet.

Vacation
My girlfriend and I celebrated her graduation from college with a little vacation. Destination: Utah (national parks) with a little dash of Las Vegas thrown in for good measure. It was an amazing trip with a lot of great sites, hikes, wildlife and landscapes.
We visited Zion National Park, Bryce Canyon National Park, Snow Canyon State Park, and Valley of Fire State Park. I'd recommend them all if you ever get the chance to go. Nothing better than taking in the sites and sounds of nature's beautiful landscapes and just getting away from it all.
Below are a few pics from the trip. Enjoy!
