I'm assuming you, like myself came of age in the 60's and 70's. What is our fascination with bucking society with hair. Mine was down about 4" below my shoulders back in the day. If Mohawk's would have been in style. I would have had one.

Have you thought about registering him as Mohawk on this forum. You know, for posterity's sake.

He even has the kind of expression Slim gets on his face at about 3:00 am after a hard night of hoisting cold ones.

Huzzah!!!

When I told folks at last year's NRA Convention that I'd be arriving with a mohawk they thought I was playing. Then I showed up with one and the look on their faces was priceless. I found out a year or so later there was a backroom sidebar about whether it would be authorized for public use. They opted to let it flow (in the wind!) and for liberty to Rayne. (Pun definitely intended.)

Much to everyone's surprise, the mohawk was a resounding success and the best 7th Step tool this side of the full-size Brown Bess replica. What really got 'em though wasn't the fact that crazy hair catches attention but the story behind it.

"The mohawk is a uniquely American haircut. There are very few haircuts in the world that everyone knows the origins of and this one - everyone knows it's from right here. I'd imagine an adventurous young man around my age would've encountered this haircut out on the frontier and probably even sported one of his very own. Especially if he was liberty-minded. Nobody lorded over the Indians. They were the most free people around. My haircut is a tip of the hat (or hair, if you will) to those folks. An historic haircut and ode to a free people. My hair is a statement of the freedom and liberty I enjoy - and do my best to embody - every day."

Then I add a 'merica or two and maybe even a pew, pew. (Also works well with the ladies!)
