The Po Man's Ski Mask

I have a better sentence than jail time for the CEOs of Enron and other people who drained the savings of employees and investors. Hairnets, worn 24/7. Why? Because nobody takes orders from a person in a hairnet. These guys won’t be able to make a bad business decision, or any decision, for the rest of their lives. The hairnet, although a mere lattice of coal-colored polyester and elastic, crushes the allure of three-piece suits, BMWs, and Cuban cigars like a cafeteria lady crushes a student with the odor of a two-day-old Sloppy Joe. Kids could practice their basketball skills while flinging rocks at Kenneth Lay. “Nothing but hairnet!”
