An addendum to the posting I made a bit ago. The mullet or mullethead site is being forwarded all over the place, so maybe it's worth another mention.

mullet* (mu' lit) 1. any of a family of edible, spiny-rayed fishes found in fresh and salt waters and having a small mouth and feeble teeth, as the striped (or gray) mullet. 2. any haircut which the sides and top of the hair are significantly shorter than the back (the originator of the term "mullet" seems to be Mike D of Beastie Boys fame).
