The distinguished website "If Charlie Parker Was a Gunslinger, There'd Be a Whole Lot of Dead Copycats" has named "The Mouth O' The Mule" blog of the month for June 2010. And a well-deserved honor it is.
To the untrained eye, half of what the Mule says is gibberish (and the other half is nonsense), but to those with a discerning eye, The Mouth O' The Mule is nothing less than the finest performance blog around. By trade an actor, musician and, God help him, lawyer, the Mule plays a variety of character roles to explore the fractured world around him and communicate his findings to the rest of us. Like watching a drunken Abe Lincoln deliver the Gettysburg Address in pink polka dot boxer shorts, the result is by turns amusing, contentious, pedantic, bawdy, reflective, occasionally nauseating, but always thought-provoking.
Much like the man himself.
Congratulations, Mister Muleboy.
