Tom Brady's new hair style, as "dubbed" by TMZ, according to today's
Boston Globe.
But did TMZ coin this? Urban Dictionary claims to have 2003, and a
reference to Kim Jong Il's hair in 2008. (Wikipedia's picture
definitely shows an asymmetric cut, high in the middle.) Then Google
has nothing until 2006 and 2007, when there are a few sightings
outside Urban Dictionary. Nothing in Google Books.
