Yes, but our work is not done. We will not sleep until the world is rid of the dreaded mullet! You know who you are! Step up and repent, sinner!

The preceding has been brought to you by “The Coalition Against Bad Hair”.

On the hair subject - I CAN’T TAKE PEOPLE TOSS THEIR LONG HAIR IN CROWDED PUBLIC SPACES! I am so sick of getting a mouthful of dirty nasty split ends, or for that matter, clean but hairspray coated HAIR when I am on the subway or in an elevator! STOP IT! Tie it up, wear a hat but STOP TOSSING!

Here you go, aha. Blame David Bowie

## \<\<“Whatever the derivation, to real devotees there is really only one mullet king: rocker David Bowie. Ziggy Stardust’s spiky hair on top, with ears exposed and a long wispy mane behind, is the classic modern-day mullet.”\>\>

“I was born in this town, I was raised in this town, and I’ll probably die in this town. Hell, I’ve already been hit by a car on this street, twice!”–if you recognize where this quote is from or who said it, please tell me.
