we caught the mullets!

success!
Today at school, Jessica and I ventured into the high school to find some of her students with mullets. The first one we found, he was really good-natured and funny and asked if we wanted him to go get some of his friends. Jackpot!! the boy went and returned with 2 other dudes, all with long hair in the back. We felt like a few apologies/explanations were in order, but when we told them that it used to be common in the United States, and no longer was, they laughed and smiled and proudly brushed their parties in the back. The first was like (in his english) "How do you call it, something like mullet?" and we were like "yes! that's the word!" to which they all laughed. So we took a picture straight on, but as the west virginia waterfalls didn't show up as well, we had them turn to the side for a second photo op. They were so cool about it.
One of the American guys who works at TJS, Jared, was listening to our conversation about the mullet hunt, and jumped in like, "yeah, I got my hair cut down here not too long ago, anddd...they asked me if i wanted to keep it long in the back. I was like, 'no.'" and they we all LOL'ed.
