Only a smallish-one. I think about 5-6 inches, but it's kinda hard to
see back there :)

According to the "technical description" of "Business in front, party in
the back", I'm a mullet-head. But trust me... it isn't by design! Last
time I bothered getting a haircut was... Uh-oh... How long *HAS* it
been? Let's see, I moved out of Arizona in late '98, and the last time I
can recall getting my hair cut there would have been about a year
before... OK, call it 7 or 8 years ago, then.

It's part of my philosophy, you might say...

Paying for a haircut makes about as much sense to me as paying for
something whose only purpose is to be thrown away - Like garbage bags.
The grocery store gives me several each time I walk in and buy stuff I'm
actually going to use - Why should I pay for 'em by the box,
particualrly when all I'm going to do with 'em is stuff them full of
crap I don't want, and throw them away along with the crap?

Likewise for hair - Why pay to have someone cut it off when it's either
going to grow back again anyway, or fall out on its own?

Oh... Yeah... That's, right. "Fashion". I always forget about that,
since I haven't got much use for being fashionable. "Function over
cosmetics" has always been my outlook. No matter the shape or thickness
of plating, a gilded turd is still a pile of *** when all is said and
done.

Don't get me wrong... "Pretty" is nice. But pretty don't slop the hogs,
muck out the stalls, weed the garden, etc. etc. etc. Leastwise, not
without wearing all the pretty off it!
